Panic! At The Disco\’s Brendon Urie celebrated his 32nd Birthday at Disneyland, and we couldn\’t be more jealous. The lead singer and his friends, including Josh Dun of Twenty One Pilots, looked like they had a fantastic time at the amusement park. Photographic evidence was shared on the Panic! instagram earlier today:
Five parents are suing New York City over an emergency order for mandatory measles vaccinations. Anyone who doesn\’t comply could face a $1,000 fine. The parents are saying that the order is violating their religious beliefs.
When the public health emergency was issued by the New York City Mayor, there were 285 confirmed cases. According to ABC News, \”the vast majority of cases involved children under 18 who were not vaccinated or who had not received the required number of doses of the….vaccine\”.
NYC\’s health commissioner, Dr. Oxiris Barbot, said that \”This outbreak is being fueled by a small group of anti-vaxxers in these neighborhoods. They have been spreading dangerous misinformation based on fake science.\”

In case you\’ve been living under a rock, Lori Loughlin and her husband (Mossimo Giannulli) have been accused of conspiracy to commit mail and wire fraud and conspiracy to commit money laundering in the attempt to get their daughters admitted to college. They allegedly paid $500,000 in bribe money to get the girls into USC – including falsely to enter them as crew recruits (despite neither of them actually participating in the sport).
People reports that \”The couple was previously offered a plea agreement, but ultimately decided to reject the deal because they didn’t want to spend time in jail\”.
Despite overwhelming evidence against them, Loughlin and Giannulli have entered a plea of not guilty.
Watch this CNN video for more clarity on the plea:
The Ides of April are upon us and Uncle Sam would like to speak with you about how much money you made last year. If you are like me and one of the 40 million people who haven’t filed yet, we have until midnight to electronically file (or end of business to have our mail return postmarked.)
You will find the address for where you should be sending your mail return to HERE.
In Chicago, the Cardiss Collins facility downtown will remain open until midnight for last-minute filers. There will be collections at street level. A second-floor retail area will be open inside for anyone who wants certified mail and other services. No other Chicago postal stations will offer extended hours.
If you haven’t even begun to sort yours out (hi friend) you can file for an extension HERE.
Now we can continue to procrastinate until October 15th!

A guy in Indiana is suing his parents because they got rid of his massive porn collection.
The 40-year-old man, who’s been identified as “Charlie”, moved in with his parents back in 2016 after he got divorced. It was in August of 2017 he moved out of his parent’s place in Michigan, after a domestic incident.
A few months later his parents drove to his place in Indiana to drop off his stuff. But he noticed one thing was missing: his massive porn collection. We’re not just talking about 1 box full, we’re talking TWELVE boxes full of movies and TWO boxes of adult toys.
When he confronted them about it they told him they’d been destroyed. His father wrote in an email why he did it, “For your own mental and emotional health. I would’ve done the same if I’d found a kilo of crack cocaine.”
He estimates the collection was worth $29,000 dollars and is seeking triple in financial damages, asking $87,000. Think justice will be done for his porn?
Also, ‘Charlie’ was kicked out of both high school and college for selling porn to other students.

You usually don’t think about drinking alcohol and cursing with it comes to yoga. But in the new practice “Rage Yoga” it combines conventional poses with some unconventional actions.
Yoga sessions include beer breaks and dropping the “F” bomb. Swearing, yelling, and alcohol is used to help people release frustrations in a healthy way.
So far there are only 3 Rage Yoga studios open with two of them in Canada and one in Huston, Texas.
But if you check out rageyoga.com you can try this at home!
‘F’ yeah!
Mom of three, Stephine Leigh, was in tears when she saw what her son had done to himself and his siblings.
Her son, Teddy, had found an electric razor and had given himself, his sister Eloise, and brother Freddie a haircut.
You can understand the shock of coming out and seeing your kids hair shaven off, but momma wasn’t extremely mad. Remember it’s just hair, it’ll grow back.
On Stephanie Instagram, she posted an update on her two boys with freshly shaved heads.
But what does Eloise look like now? Probably the same, but it’ll grow back!
Walk The Moon meet and greet photos from their visit to The Lounge.
Someone at 101WKQX is watching all the terrible television….so you don’t have to. And I feel so bad for whoever they are.
On the mid-season teaser trailer of a thing called “Very Cavallari” on the E! Network, Kristin Cavallari has indicated that husband & former Bears quarterback Jay Cutler helped out his wife by “sucking hard than he’s ever sucked.” On her clogged milk ducts. Hear for yourself:
Now, Ms. Cavallari says that her husband “saved her life” by doing this. So I Googled whether or not a clogged milk duct is fatal. Painful, yes but — surprise — not an immediate life threat, as long as you address the problem. And number nine on a list of ways to clear a clogged duct is having your partner help you out. So good on Jay for doing something more useful than anything he ever did in a uniform for the Monsters Of The Midway. — [eric]
One of the surprises on the surprise Weezer cover album was TLC’s “No Scrubs.” And while performing at Coachella last night in California, one of the trio to originally do the song — Chilli — jumped on stage to join the group. Here’s a fan video of the performance. The Teal Album is available now, by the way. — [eric]

A petition has started to have the first black hole captured by a camera — named after the late Soundgarden and Audisslave frontman.
Giuliana Jarrin writes on the Change.org petition that having the supermassive black hole named in Chris’ honor “would be a surreal and amazing way to honor his life and his contribution to music.” And as of the publishing of this article, the 35,000 signatures had been reached to make it happen.
Earlier this week, the Event Horizon Telescope captured the first ever image of such a phenomenon — thanks in big to part to the contributions of a 29 year old grad student. — [eric]
In the dusty wine country of California (don’t get dust in your wine!), Coachella is going down with K-pop girl groups getting headlines and pop favorites in headlining spots, but we feel the need to point out our alternative favorites playing it up big on the three live stream channels from the coolest kid’s music festival. The set times listed below are in PST followed by CST and which of the three channels you can watch it on for free. All three streaming channels are below.
SATURDAY APRIL 13TH:
04:15 / 6:15 – Wallows (2)
06:30 / 8:30 – The Interrupters (3)
08:00 / 10:00 – Bob Moses (3)
08:45 / 10:45 – Weezer (1)

Outside of the spectrum of alternative music there will also be streaming sets from Childish Gabino,
They have sold millions of album, played to hundreds of thousands people, and certainly could be called the biggest band in the world. All those accolades earned from the pulse pounding drums of Dominic Howard, the wave-rolling bass of Chris Wolstenholme, and the rebel rousing power of singer/guitarist Matt Belamy known to us mere mortals as MUSE. So DIG DOWN into this song list before they play a huge show tonight at the United Center.
Let’s geek out, freak out, and likely argue over what are the best Muse songs. With some influence from listeners like you texting into 312101 and asking around the halls of 101WKQX, my Muse-loving mind culled together this top 20 never-to-be-challenged list that counts down the trio’s top tracks. Did your favorite rank high or low? Is there a song that is not listed that made you yell at the screen? Let us know on Twitter or Facebook.

Episode IX is coming!
The core movie Avengers sat down for a roundtable with Entertainment Weekly, and while they couldn’t say much about “Endgame,” it’s kinda cool to watch them talk about the impact of Marvel’s movies.
Matt Cameron, drummer for Pearl Jam and Soundgarden, has shared two videos on his Instagram story recording with Foo Fighters drummer Taylor Hawkins and Melvins frontman Buzz Osborne.
How did this trio hook up? Hawkins fronted a one off Soundgarden reunion performance in Los Angeles at the ‘I Am The Highway’ Chris Cornell tribute show in Los Angeles last month. The Melvins were the first performers at the show, introduced by Soundgarden’s surviving members.
We already knew Mike McCready, guitarist of Pearl Jam, is putting together a super group to perform at ‘Peak to the Sky,’ a day of music he will be curating on July 6th in Big Sky Montana. McCready will be joined by Red Hot Chili Peppers members Josh Klinghoffer and Chad Smith, Foo Fighters drummer Taylor Hawkins, Guns N’ Roses bassist Duff McKagan, and Brandi Carlile.
Are we witnessing the birth of a yet another new super group? Or another Matt Cameron solo album with special guests?
I guess we will just have to wait for more clues.
