![William Shatner debuted his new heavy metal project in Chicago last night. With his band the *uckers (guitarists Marcus Nand and Britt Lightning, bassist Phil Soussan, and drummer Fred Achin), the 95-year-old ‘Star Trek’ star and longtime recording artist sang classics by Ozzy Osbourne, Motörhead, and Metallica, plus a handful of originals. “You gotta start with the premise that I really know nothing [about metal],” Captain Kirk told ‘The Moynihan Report’ earlier this month.

In September 1976, 14-year-old Larry Mullen Jr. pinned a handwritten note ("Drummer Seeks Musicians To Form Band") to the noticeboard at Mount Temple Comprehensive Schoolin Dublin. On September 25 of that year, Paul Hewson ("Bono Vox"), David Evans ("the Edge"), Dik Evans ("the Edge's brother"), Adam Clayton, and Ivan McCormick joined Mullen for their first rehearsal, under their original name Feedback. It was later changed to the Hype and finally, U2. Today, exactly 50 years later, the band returned to Mount Temple to perform for 1000 students and staff. The setlist included "Out Of Control" for the first time since 2018, "I Will Follow" for the first time since 2019, and the live debut of their new single "Silence." U2 then headed over to Bewley’s Grafton Street Café for a second surprise set.

At the inaugural Daisy Chain Fields tonight, Olivia Rodrigo brought out Sarah McLachlan for the latter’s “Building A Mystery” and “Angel,” dedicated to the late Dolly Parton. The pop star’s women-led festival in Irvine, which was inspired by McLachlan’s Lilith Fair, raised $10M for women’s rights nonprofits, an amount that Melinda French Gates is doubling with a $10M donation through her charity Pivotal. “Without Lilith Fair, there would no Daisy Chain,” Rodrigo said. She also brought out Alanis Morissette for “Ironic” and Stevie Nicks for “Landslide.”

Kelly Clarkson loves AI, but thinks humans should have their own music charts, she tells ‘Las Culturistas.’ Billboard hasn’t banned AI-generated music, but is moving toward labeling it, while industry groups want a distinction between “AI-generated” and “AI-assisted” recordings.

Julian Casablancas expanded on his recent Zionism comments in a speech at the Oxford Union. When the Strokes frontman appeared on SubwayTakes a few months ago, he said “American Zionists get the benefits of white privileged people but talk like they are Black people during slavery.” He continued, “Just for the people that are going to be like, ‘Hamas, October 7th.’ Yes, bad. But Native American rebellions didn’t mean it was okay to do what we did. Slave rebellions that were violent didn’t mean that slavery is not bad.” In late May, Casablancas appeared at the Oxford Union (the debating society where he previously spoke in 2021) and expanded on those remarks. His speech began with an argument about the power of words and the need for more precise political language. He said capitalism, communism, socialism, and libertarianism have been bent and stretched to the point of losing their meaning. Then he brought up Zionism and argued that the word has become too broad to be useful, proposing more specific categories “to help avoid future discord.” Casablancas said Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians but identified himself as a “green liner,” someone who accepts the 1967 Green Line borders. He contrasted that position with “expansionists” — “the good old settler types just shooting at Palestinians and taking homes daily.”
