Guitarist Tom Verlaine, co-founder of Television, dies at 73

NEW YORK โ€” (AP) โ€” Tom Verlaine, guitarist and co-founder of the seminal proto-punk band Television who influenced many bands while playing at ultra-cool downtown New York music venue CBGB alongside the Ramones, Patti Smith and Talking Heads, has died. โ€œTom Verlaine has passed over to the beyond that his guitar playing always hinted at. He was the best rock and roll guitarist of all time, and like Hendrix could dance from the spheres of the cosmos to garage rock. Though Television never found much commercial success, Verlaineโ€™s jaggedly inventive playing as part of the band's two-guitar assault influenced many musicians. Increasing tension between Verlaine and fellow guitarist Richard Lloyd led Television to disband after its second album โ€œAdventure.โ€ The group would reunite for a self-titled 1992 album for Capitol Records and sporadic live appearances.

Renowned author Joan Didion honored by hundreds at memorial

NEW YORK โ€” (AP) โ€” Joan Didion's precision with words extended even to ones she would never live to hear, such as those used during a small, private service this spring at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine. Patrick Malloy said Wednesday night, at the start of a memorial tribute at the Cathedral. โ€œShe and Joan would share a smoke together and talk about the novels they were reading,โ€ he said. Didionโ€™s longtime friend and fellow author Susanna Moore distilled decades of conversation into a few of Didion's aphorisms: โ€œEvil is the absence of seriousness.โ€ โ€œCrazy is never interesting." โ€œWithout raising the issue she (Joan Didion) reached out and stroked my head,โ€ Traylor recalled.

Hundreds gather for Joan Didion tribute Wednesday night

NEW YORK โ€” (AP) โ€” Joan Didion's precision with words extended even to ones she would never live to hear, such as those used during a small, private service this spring at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine. Patrick Malloy said Wednesday night, at the start of a memorial tribute at the Cathedral. It was Didion's way of reminding everyone that the sounds of the words, and their rhythm, meant as much as the words themselves. โ€œShe and Joan would share a smoke together and talk about the novels they were reading,โ€ he said. โ€œWithout raising the issue she (Joan Didion) reached out and stroked my head,โ€ Traylor recalled.

Superstar bash in Central Park expected to draw thousands

NEW YORK โ€” (AP) โ€” The sounds of song will be ringing out from Central Park on Saturday, with thousands expected for a superstar-laden concert that was meant to celebrate New York City's recovery from the coronavirus.

Others expected to perform include Barry Manilow, Wyclef Jean, Elvis Costello, Cynthia Erivo and Patti Smith, who is duetting with Springsteen.

Former US Ambassador to Ukraine to be honored by PEN America

She will be among the guests Dec. 8 at PEN's annual gala, to be held online because of the coronavirus pandemic. Others receiving awards will include author and musician Patti Smith and Chinese dissident Xu Zhiyong.

Chinese dissident Xu Zhiyong to be honored by PEN America

NEW YORK Xu Zhiyong, a prominent Chinese activist and legal scholar detained by the government since earlier this year, is being honored by PEN America. Xu's award comes on the 31st anniversary of the so-called Tiananmen Square Massacre, when Chinese soldiers shot and killed pro-democracy demonstrators. The 47-year-old Xu has strongly criticized Chinese leader Xi Jinping for his handling of the coronavirus outbreak. You didnt authorise the truth to be released, and the outbreak turned into a national disaster, Xu wrote in February, shortly before he was detained. PEN will highlight Xu's life and work at its annual gala, scheduled for December 8 in Manhattan after being postponed from May because of the coronavirus.
