• 7 Musicians and Shoulder Injuries: Mariah Carey, Steven Tyler, Pink and More, Onstage and Offstage Incidents

    Between the announcement that Killer Mike has suffered a torn rotator cuff during the onstage attack upon Run The Jewels at South by Southwest to the Black Keys canceling another wave of tour dates so that Patrick Carney could recover from a dislocated shoulder he received from a giant wave in the Caribbean during January. In other words: It's been a bad week for musical shoulders. Music Times looked back at a collection of injuries to that region of the arm that other music figures have suffered on recent memory.

  • Killer Mike Injured During Assault on Run The Jewels at South by Southwest; Won't Stop Tour

    Earlier this week Music Times reported that Run The Jewels was attacked onstage while it played the pair's first performance at South by Southwest.

  • NME Ranks Best Beatles Songs with Panel of Stars; Dave Grohl, Pete Townshend and More Voted...What Won?

    "The Best Beatles Songs" is a poll that you won't see Music Times touching with a ten-foot pole. One factor is laziness: There are just so many hits from the band...sorting them would be a nightmare. However, the major reason would be our cowardice: When a band's discography is so epic, regardless of what track you place at the top, the armies representing every other single in the group's catalogue will lash out.
