This Week’s Rock News: Journey Hits the Road With a New Drummer

It was a short week on The Boris and Robyn Show, but there is still some rock news to tell you about.  If you thought Journey's journey was over because of the personal and legal problems of drummer  Deen Castronovo, here is some good news.  They'll be touring with their former drummer Steve Smith, and they'll be on tour with The Doobie Brothers and Dave Mason.  The even better news?  They are coming to Bethel Woods Center for the Arts June 24.

Also this week, Lynyrd Skynyrd has canceled the rest of this year's tour so that Gary Rossington can recuperate from his recent heart problems and surgery.  We wish him well.  U2 has rescheduled their concert in Paris that was originally set for Nov.14.  It will now be on Dec 7, and will be broadcast live on HBO at 9pm.

And Blondie, Fleetwood Mac, The Dead, and Dylan have all been inducted into the 2016 Grammy Hall of fame. Blondie's "Heart of Glass," Fleetwood Mac's self-titled album, Grateful Dead's American Beauty and Bob Dylan's The Basement Tapes are among the inductees.

We do rock news every weekday morning at 6:45 on The Boris and Robyn Show.  Not up that early?  Look for a weekend recap right here.  Talk to you Monday.
