Briefly: Linkin Park, Slick Rick, Roseanne Cash, Evanescence, Delbert McClinton
"Linkin Park Live in Texas," which will be released on DVD on Nov. 18, will debut at select Regal Cinemas movie theaters on Nov. 17.
A list of screenings is available at Regal Entertainment's website.
The Linkin Park concert film and a companion CD were recorded during the band's two Texas stops on this year's Summer Sanitarium tour.
A judge reportedly has concluded that Slick Rick , who has been in the custody of the Immigration and Naturalization Service since June of 2003 as he fights a deportation order, should be freed.
According to published reports, U.S. District Judge Kimba Wood decided that the Board of Immigration Appeals should not have reversed a previous decision to allow the rapper--whose real name is Ricky Walters--to remain free.
Walters, a native of Great Britain who has lived in the U.S. since he was 11 years old, faced deportation because of a 1990 incident in which he was convicted for shooting a cousin, the cousin's pregnant girlfriend and a bystander. He spent five years in a New York prison after pleading guilty to the charges.
INS agents arrested Walters aboard a cruise ship after the U.S. began enforcing a law that requires deportation of foreigners convicted of violent felonies.
Singer-songwriter Roseanne Cash will discuss the legacy of her father, Johnny Cash, on CNN's "Larry King Live" on Nov. 11.
Others who will appear on the show include John Carter Cash, Dwight Yoakam and Travis Tritt.
Evanescence guitarist Ben Moody reportedly left the band's European tour without explanation following an Oct. 21 show in Stockholm, and hasn't rejoined the group for its subsequent shows.
According to British press reports, the band is completing its European dates with a temporary replacement. It isn't known if Moody will return for the band's upcoming U.S. dates.
Delbert McClinton 's 10th anniversary Sandy Beaches Cruise, which sails from Ft. Lauderdale to the Caribbean, will sport a lineup of John Hiatt, Asleep at the Wheel, Sonny Landreth, Marcia Ball, Tommy Castro and others.
McClinton--who is supporting his new two-CD concert album "Live,"--sets sail with his cohorts on Jan. 11. Details are available at McClinton's official website.
