POP MUSIC: Let's talk about it. NEW RELEASES: Paste will point you to Leon Bridges, Anika and more. BILL'S INDIE BASEMENT has Piroshka, Lou Hayter, and more. FRUIT BATS covers the Smashing Pumpkins' Siamese Dream LP. PRINCE's estate unvaults "Hot Summer." JAPANESE BREAKFAST, covering Dolly Parton's "Here You Come Again." BIG RED MACHINE features FLEET FOXES and ANAIS MITCHELL on "Phoenix." ANDERSON EAST goes very 80s on "Hood of My Car." BOB DYLAN was reportedly in good voice on his livestreamed Shadow Kingdom. DAUGHTER's Alexis Marshall discusses the influences on his solo LP. THE NUMBER ONES looks at Richard Marx's vague but sticky quasi-rocker "Satisfied." WEEKEND BOX OFFICE: Two releases respecting the theatrical window –Universal’s Old and Paramount’s Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins– opened to blah results, respectively with 16.5MM and 13.35MM. Black Widow showed with11.6MM on a 55 percent drop. Last weekend's champ, Space Jam: A New Legacy, tumbled to the fourth slot with 9.56MM on a not-so-nice 69 percent skid. JACKIE MASON, whose staccato, arm-waving delivery and thick Yiddish accent kept the borscht belt style of comedy alive long after the Catskills resorts had shut their doors, and whose career reached new heights in the 1980s with a series of one-man shows on Broadway, died on Saturday in Manhattan. He was 93. BENNIFER: It's on like Donkey Kong. ADELE and agent Rich Paul, caught on camera. MEGXIT: Meghan Markle and Prince Harry will team up on a book about ‘leadership’ as part of their megabucks book deal. HBO MAX is gaining traction with customers.

BLOW OUT at 40: Brian DePalma's dazzling 1981 masterpiece sees a never-better John Travolta find himself caught in a dangerous murder plot. TRASH PARROTS Invent New Skill in Australian Suburbs. UNVACCINATED SNOW LEOPARD at the San Diego Zoo catches COVID. TEXAS NATIONAL PARK warns of acid-spraying "whip scorpions." DOGGO at a wind farm.

THE WEEKEND STARTS HERE: ![source: imgur.com](http://i.imgur.com/ywsbUGC.jpg)
...with LIVE AID! It was recently the anniversary of the trans-Atlantic rock event aimed at aiding starving people in Ethiopia (Its prime movers, like Bob Geldof & Bono, would later discover, actually getting the aid past the Marxist dictatorship would be the difficult part). Most of the day's music has found its way online, including the set from Queen that was memorialized in Boheman Rhapsody, a decidiely career-boosting appearance by U2, a look at the pre-lip-syncing Madonna, a peak-80s Bowie set and -- as my pal Nathan reminded me -- a raft of appearances from the Style Council to the Four Tops to Paul Young to Judas Priest to the Cars to the Beach Boys to the Pretenders to The Who to Simple Minds to Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers and so many more. Revisiting these videos, I was particularly taken by a solo Elvis Costello (who pobably could not afford a touring band at this point in his career) making The Beatles' "All You Need Is Love" much more than what's on the page with help from a stadium crowd, and the improbable greatness of Kiki Dee in Mom wear, joining Elton John for "Don't Go Breaking My Heart." NICK THORBURN of ISLANDS visits World Cafe. MAPLE GLIDER plays a Tiny Desk Concert from Home. THE KVB shares "World on Fire." DAVID CROSBY on his early work, Steely Dan, The Simpsons, and more. THIS SONG IS ABOUT YOU: Confessional songs are all over the pop charts, but what do musicians who blend fact and fiction owe their real life subjects? FUNKADELIC: Building the Sound of "Maggot Brain." SPOTIFY: Where does the money go? DUNE has a main trailer online. TED LASSO: How the writers made viewers love him in 157 seconds. DR. DRE will pay almost 300K in monthly spousal support. MENA SUVARI discusses a weird encounter with Kevin Spacey. EMILIA CLARKE has been cast in Marvel’s Secret Invasion series for Disney+. BEN AFFLECK & MATT. DAMON. want to start wrting together again. DAVID S. GOYER talks to THR about his past ('Blade,' 'The Dark Knight,' 'Man of Steel'), present ('The Tomorrow War,' 'The Night House') and future ('Foundation,' 'Sandman') projects. THE FUTURE OF CONTENT: John Mass talk s about the business of acquiring intellectual property and figuring out how to make the business side of show business work I BRAKE for Bison. EVER HEARD Foxes Laughing? NOT ALL DOGS are athletic. DOLPHIN Gymnastics.
