A 43-year-old man of African-American descent has been charged with defacement of property at the Tupac Amaru Shakur arts center in Atlanta that included hanging a noose around the statue of Tupac. He has not been charged with a hate crime. The vandalism also included flyers bearing rants about other rappers, Hurricane Katrina and 9/11, so it turns out the guy is just, well, a little nuts. And not all nutty protesters can be as fun as our 12 Galaxies guy.

Roseanne Cash, the 52-year-old daughter of Johnny Cash, is set to undergo brain surgery for a “rare but benign condition” and is canceling the rest of her tour. Her label released a statement saying that the singer is expected to make a full recovery.

The White Stripes have apparently been busy, posting on their website that they’ve been working on a new video, three new songs that include a “special collaboration,” and a new version of a track from Icky Thump. Well, yes, that’s what bands do I guess, but they’re the White Stripes.

Jimmy Page broke his pinky in a fall in his garden, it turns out. Rock ‘n’ roll!
