The 80s band Journey have always told their fans,”Don’t Stop Believing,” so it’s possible that people kept their hopes up that front man Steve Perry would rejoin the group one day.

By now most people have probably heard that the Red Hot Chili Peppers didn’t really play their instruments during their performance at this year’s Super Bowl. The group’s base player Flea made the admission on the band’s website a few days ago.
So it was only a matter of time before people in the music world chimed in, to either show support for the Chili Peppers or to speak negatively about them and talk a little trash.

Arthur Chu has been getting some pushback for his unconventional strategy on the popular TV game show ‘Jeopardy’.
The 30-year-old ‘Jeopardy’ champ from Broadview Heights, Ohio, uses a game strategy he calls “The Forrest Bounce”, referring to 8o’s champion Chuck Forrest’s style of play. Chu’s strategy involves ignoring the easy questions and jumping across the board to the questions of higher value in search of the much-desired Daily Doubles.
