Here's a handy list of stuff from the 90s, in this video from musical sketch comedy group Pop Roulette. Dunkaroos, pogs, 'Dawson's Creek' -- it's all there. (Really it's about one 'Pete & Pete' reference away from being the Buzzfeed handbook.)
Paul McCartney's inventive bass playing has influenced countless artists, but he has musical heroes of his own, and he revealed one of them during the latest round of the ongoing Q&A session he's having with fans at his website.
On March 27, 1973, Jerry Garcia was pulled over for what should have been a routine speeding ticket in New Jersey. The traffic stop turned into a full-on nightmare for the Grateful Dead leader when police searched his car, resulting in a charge for drug possession.
March 26, 2013 Jacksonville-based singer/songwriter JJ Grey will release his seventh album, This River, on Tuesday, April 16. This is Grey's first studio album since 2010's acclaimed Georgia Warhorse, and I can hardly wait for more Southern swamp funk and soul!

It's a little weird and unseemly, given how long ago it all went down, but the behind-the-scenes breakups that plagued (and perhaps fueled) Fleetwood Mac's classic 'Rumours' album remain a topic of intense fascination for many -- which is why Stevie Nicks delved once more into the end of her affair with Lindsey Buckingham during a recent sit-down with Oprah Winfrey.
