First Dibs: Why Did Police Shut Down A Backstreet Boys Concert Last Night?

Why did Motorhead cut their own concert short? Why is Jack White's divorce getting nasty? Who got to listen to Big Sean's new album first?

  • Backstreet Boys were supposed to kick off their new tour last night in Chicago, but the police reportedly cut the concert short. The band had a late start and broke "curfew," so the police had teamsters cut their microphones before the set was over. The guys apologized to their fans on Facebook.  [Oh No They Didn't]

  • A Motorhead concert in Wacken, Germany was cut short yesterday due to frontman Lemmy Kilmister's failing health. According to an audience member, "[Lemmy] did not look or sound good at all." [Blabbermouth.net]

  • Jack White's divorce from Karen Elson is getting nasty. Elson is alleging that White is unfit to be a parent and White is responding by contesting these claims and dredging up personal letters that prove otherwise. [Rolling Stone]

  • Big Sean's new album Hall of Fame won't be out until August 27, but his biggest fan, Christian Ponisi, has already heard it. Ponisi has spinal muscular atrophy, but that hasn't stopped him from "repping hard" for the G.O.O.D. Music rapper. [MTV News]
