Deep Purple has released "Guilt Trippin'", the third single from their upcoming studio album "Splat!", which will be released on July 3. According to the band, it is their heaviest album in a long time, and they are already considering releasing another one next year. "The song starts, and I'm in the studio. I don't have any words for it yet. So I just start screaming. It was the pure joy of yelling it. I vowed when I was 40 that I'd stop screaming by the time I was 60. Now I'm looking back and thinking, 'Whatever happened to that?' So we'll give it a go," Ian Gillan said about the track. Their current line-up has Ian Gillan (Vocals), Roger Glover (Bass), Ian Paice (Drums), Don Airey (Keyboards) and Simon McBride (Guitar).

Daryl Hall revealed on social media that he recently received a kidney transplant from a "very kind and generous donor". The surgery took place a few weeks ago, and the musician said he is starting to feel better. According to his doctor, the procedure was a complete success. Hall said his life should be back to normal in a few months, and he is looking forward to writing new music and performing live again. Daryl Hall updates health status following kidney transplant "Hi everybody! I thought you should know that I recently received a kidney transplant from a very kind and generous living donor. It happened a couple of weeks ago, and I'm already starting to feel better. It was, according to my doctors, a complete success! I should be back to normal in a few months, so get ready for more music and lots of Daryl's House shows. You all take care! Love," he said. The duo Hall & Oates reunited and toured around the world a few years ago but their partnership officially came to an end in November 2023. That was when the feud between the duo was revealed, since Hall filed a lawsuit and obtained a temporary restraining order against Oates. It was an attempt to block Oates from selling his share in their joint venture. Hall said last year that they were not really creative partners for decades already and revealed that he always saw himself as a solo artist. In an interview with Broken Record Podcast, John Oates said he doesn’t believe in reconciling with Daryl Hall. Hall & Oates got together in 1970 and by the late 80s they already were one of the most successful duos of all time. With many hits, they have sold an estimated amount of more than 80 million records worldwide. They released 18 studio albums together, the most recent one being “Home For Christmas” in 2006. Some of their biggest hits are “Out Of Touch”, “Kiss On My List”, “Maneater” and “You Make My Dreams (Come True.)” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJ9wYgfDFEc&pp=ygUPZGFyeWwgaGFsbCAyMDI2The post Daryl Hall updates health status following kidney transplant appeared first on Rock and Roll Garage.

Iron Maiden was performing at La Défense Arena in Paris last Monday when the show was interrupted during "2 Minutes to Midnight" by a major power outage, plunging the entire arena into darkness. It took more than an hour for the band to return to the stage and finish the show, which had to be cut short, leaving several songs off the setlist. The band released a statement following the show to explain what happened and apologize. The show also was being filmed for future release. See Iron Maiden's show being interrupted by power outage and their statement https://youtu.be/C1fFUts77Vc?si=Jg5hvGQb5uR0iclR&t=100 "Last night Maiden returned to La Défense Arena in Paris. Having played two sold out nights there last year in the 37,000 capacity indoor stadium, home of Racing 92 rugby club, this return a year later was specifically to film the show for posterity and future release, and an indoor stadium and exuberant French fans were ideal for this. However, about fifty minutes into the set towards the end of ‘2 Minutes to Midnight’, a total power cut brought everything to a stop." "As stated by Le Figaro, the French national newspaper, today – 'Officials are investigating whether the outage was linked to the extreme heat. However, French electricity distributor Enedis said the problem did not appear to originate from the public power grid and was more likely related to the arena’s own electrical installation. The exact cause remains under investigation'. "We will find out in the next few days exactly what happened with the power and why. The band were able to resume on stage about an hour after the cut occurred continuing the set with ‘Rime of the Ancient Mariner’. The concert was scheduled to finish by 11pm with a curfew at that time which the local police chief would only extend to 11.35pm after the cut off because, we were told, all local transport in the area stopped by 12.15 and they could not have over 30,000 fans on the streets unable to get home. This gave just enough time for the band to complete the set finishing with ‘Iron Maiden’ but unable to play any of the encores." "Bruce comments, 'Despite everything the audience and atmosphere last night were fantastic and, like every other challenge Iron Maiden have faced over the years, we’ll find a way to deal with and overcome the missing songs in the encore when it comes to the final film. We know that many of you travelled long distances, waited patiently throughout the interruption, and were looking forward to experiencing the complete Run For Your Lives show. We share your disappointment. No one is more frustrated than the band and crew, who were eager to deliver the full performance you deserved." “What we will remember most from last night is the incredible spirit inside the arena. Your patience, understanding and unwavering support through an extremely challenging situation meant the world to us. The energy in the room was remarkable and is exactly what we have to come to expect from Paris, and a reminder of why we always love playing here. Thank you, Paris.'” "Manager Rod Smallwood adds, 'The fans were magnificent and a huge thanks to them from the band for their patience and support. it just illustrates again what great fans we have. The temperature in Paris was as high as 44°C that day and the hall AC went off with the cut so of course, with so many people in there, it soon got hot while they were waiting for us to be able to resume playing. Naturally when we continued with the lights and pyro and excitement it got seriously hot for fans and band. Despite that the energy of the reaction was incredible!'”The post Iron Maiden’s show is interrupted by a power outage appeared first on Rock and Roll Garage.
