Speaker 2: a stem cell transplant with his own cells, which he
Speaker 2: said did not work. Eventually, doctors told him he really
Speaker 2: only had one chance for a cure, and that was
Speaker 2: to do a donor stem cell transplant. And that's exactly
Speaker 2: what I did. We told you about that a little
Speaker 2: while back, and that last ditch effort worked. Campbell. He says,
Speaker 2: I don't get to know who the donor is for
Speaker 2: a couple of years, but when I find out, I'm
Speaker 2: gonna buy him a beer or two or three.
Speaker 1: First thing I was gonna ask who is the donor.
Speaker 1: I didn't know if there's another person in def Leppard.
Speaker 2: It was an anonymous donor, so he'll find out down
Speaker 2: the road there. Roger Daltrey was knighted over the weekend yes,

Speaker 2: said there were plans to donate all of his wards
Speaker 2: and Platinum discs and all this other memorabilia to an
Speaker 2: exhibit that is being planned for the city. While we
Speaker 2: now can report that the Ozzy exhibit will open and
Speaker 2: at the Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery later this month,

Speaker 1: the people that are going to that show, yeah, to
Speaker 1: go check out at the bonus.
Speaker 2: At the museum. So that that's kind of cool.

Speaker 2: Last weekend Download Festival in England, officials they have urged
Speaker 2: music fans to take their iPhones out of crash detection mode.
Speaker 2: The police estimate that people rocking out in mosh pits
Speaker 2: caused an increase of seven hundred to one thousand extra
Speaker 2: calls the first year that that that feature was available.
Speaker 2: They're trying to avoid having that happen again. Your phone,
Speaker 2: you know, in your pockets and you're in the moshpit
Speaker 2: and you're getting jostled around, it may think you've been
Speaker 2: in an accident and call police to your location. So
Speaker 2: they're like, hey, could you all deactivate. That's no word
Speaker 2: on how many of them actually complied with the request
Speaker 2: from the festival organizers.
Speaker 1: You're linking major bands there. Oh, yes, please have a request?
Speaker 1: No whatever, dude, No, get your phone off crash mode?
Speaker 2: Right, yeah?
Speaker 1: Could you tell me how to do that?
Speaker 2: Bon Jovi performed their first full concert since twenty twenty two.
Speaker 2: This past weekend in Nashville, they did a seventeen song
Speaker 2: set spanning their forty year career career. It was a
Speaker 2: private show part of a weekend travel package organized by
Speaker 2: Runaway Tours. You know, this happens more and more than
Speaker 2: we know. Not only do these bands catching big on
Speaker 2: like corporate events, bands will slip in and out of
Speaker 2: cities to do shows like this, but then there's this
Speaker 2: one where, you know, if you're willing to fork over
Speaker 2: a bunch of money, they'll have these private shows where
Speaker 2: there's not you know, fifty thousand people there. They pulled
Speaker 2: off seventeen songs and they from those who were there
Speaker 2: said that John bon Jovi sounded pretty good. He though, ever,
Speaker 2: he's still very cautious about touring extensively. You know, he
Speaker 2: had the vocal surgery and he's like, I just you know,
Speaker 2: last time they were out, it really all fell apart,
Speaker 2: and some of those performances are really bad, So he's
Speaker 2: cautiously optimistic. I'm at this point I'll blame them, But
Speaker 2: how's this for a wackado tour? The b fifty twos
Speaker 2: in Devo announced their Cosmic de Evolution tour. It's only
Speaker 2: eleven dates and it's uh, this is great. Uh. The
Speaker 2: B fifty twos have been doing a even though they're
Speaker 2: technic retired from touring, they have done a residency in Vegas,
Speaker 2: and Devo's been, you know, getting out there a little bit.
Speaker 2: Now the two are teaming up. They hatch this plan.
Speaker 2: I guess during the musical portion of the SNL fifty celebration,
Speaker 2: right which they were both there and they talked about it,
Speaker 2: and I guess they're going to go out and do
Speaker 2: eleven dates on this. The closest one to us is
Speaker 2: in Georgia.
Speaker 1: That sucks, I thought you were going to say, And
Speaker 1: there was a Florida date. I saw B fifty two's
Speaker 1: back with a Ziggy Marley when I was in high school.
Speaker 2: I saw the B fifty two's get booed off the
Speaker 2: stage as openers for the Who Here in Orlando at
Speaker 2: the then Tangerine Ball in nineteen eighty two.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's it. That's before Roger was knighted. Yes, yes,
Speaker 1: that's well before. Yes, and I still will never forget
Speaker 1: Fred Schneider.
Speaker 2: The B fifty two is going, We're taking you a planet,
Speaker 2: Claire whether you like it or not, and just all
Speaker 2: this barrage of garbage rained down and then they're like,
Speaker 2: screw this, we are outing, we are not taking you,
Speaker 2: all right, and that would be your rock news for
Speaker 2: this week.
