September 11, 2015

UNDATED (AP) — R.E.M. are unhappy with Donald Trump using their music at a political event, but they want voters to have their eyes on the big picture. Trump used their song “It’s The End Of The World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)” at a rally to oppose the Iran deal on Wednesday in Washington. R.E.M. say they did not authorize the use of the song but there are “things of greater importance at stake here.” They say American voters should not let “grandstanding politicians” distract them from the pressing issues of the day.

Police Crack Down on Homemade Outhouses at Jimmy Buffett Show

August 19, 2015

MANSFIELD, Mass. (AP) — Police in Mansfield, Massachusetts, have a message for Parrotheads: no homemade potties, and leaving them behind is gross.

Police Lieutenant Sam Thompson says 75 to 100 people were instructed to take down their outhouses. Police Chief Ronald Sellon says Buffett’s crowd has been primary offenders in this regard, and leaving the outhouses behind is “unsanitary and just disrespectful.”
