- Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers' guitarist Mike Campbell has postponed his upcoming tour and release date of his debut album by his solo band the Dirty Knobs until the fall. The album, which was originally announced for March 20th, titled, Wreckless Abandon, has now been pushed until September 18th.
- Campbell said in a statement: “On Sunday night my doctors discovered some health issues, which, while fully treatable, need to be addressed before going out on tour. The good news, well, really it’s great news, is that I’m going to be just fine. The bad news, and I say this with much frustration, is the tour that was scheduled to start next week will need to be postponed and rescheduled for September.” Tickets for the rescheduled shows will be good for the new dates, with refunds also available at the point of purchase.

- Former Styx frontman and co-founder Dennis DeYoung dropped a pair of new songs this weekend as a teaser for his upcoming solo set, 26 East, Vol. 1, which drops on April 10th. The newly released tracks are a team-up with Julian Lennon called “To the Good Old Days,” along with the new album’s lead track, “East Of Midnight.”
- DeYoung shed light on the new tunes, posting on Facebook: “Both songs were inspired by you guys from things you’ve written here and stories you’ve told me when you’ve met me in person. Heartfelt tales regarding the impact and influence my songs and the songs of Styx have had upon your lives. Incredible memories are recalled in great detail by all of you telling me who, what, where and when you were when you first heard a particular song or album. As it turns out we more connected than I ever understood.”
- Micky Dolenz and Mike Nesmith have just released the live video from their upcoming live album, The Mike & Micky Show Live, set for release on April 3rd. The video is for the group's first single and chart-topper, 1966's “Last Train To Clarksville.” There's no word whether a DVD version of the new live set is being prepped for release.
