Kurt Cobain's MTV Unplugged guitar gets a record price at auction, while Prince's iconic guitar definitely does not, Paul McCartney plays the trumpet(?) at a virtual charity show, and you can now buy edible Grateful Dead arm charm.

I was talking on the show a couple of days ago about John Douglas, the Aerosmith drum tech who had 6 hours to learn the whole set when he stepped in for Joey Kramer last summer. Turns out, Fitzy was in town and listening, busted me a text to tell me that Douglas is one of his best buds (and his own drum tech), and we decided to set up a call to catch up. Great convo as always. (Photo: Brent Fitz)

The first-ever Beatles recording at Abbey Road Studios (pre-Ringo) is the subject of a new lawsuit, Styx and Ace Frehley have actually scheduled new summertime concert dates in the U.S, and Rage Against The Machine albums experience sales surge in the current BLM climate...but at least one fan was hilariously clued out that RATM was a political band.
