Briefly: U2, Prince, Badly Drawn Boy, Linda Ronstadt
According to its official website, " U2 's 2001 concert tour dates are set to be formally announced later this month."
Harold Burroughs Rhodes, the inventor of the Rhodes electric piano, died on Dec. 17 at age 89, the Los Angeles Times reported.
Prince has added two new MP3s to www.NPGonlineLTD.com.
Badly Drawn Boy 's Damon Gough was "bottled offstage"--the crowd threw bottles at him until he left--during his New Year's Eve show at Manchester's Castlefield Arena, NME.com reported.
Milesofmusic.com asked various artists about their highlights of 2000. Chuck Prophet responded: "Hearing Linda Ronstadt at the urging of MC EmmyLou Harris, dust off "Blue Bayou" for the first time in ages one night at the Warfield in San Francisco. Heavy duty.... And by the time Greg Leisz nailed the steel solo there wasn't a dry eye in the house."
