Support the independent voice of Dallas and help keep the future of Dallas Observer free.
Your daily dose of national music news for Thursday, September 24, 2009...
- Mackenzie Phillips really loved her father, John Phillips of The Mamas and The Papas--so much so, she claims to have had an affair with him for 10 years. But, hey, uh, it was consensual. So you shouldn't judge.
- Nothing signifies the motto "It's just business, not personal" like suing your mentor and the man who made you. Eminem is suing Apple and Dr. Dre's Aftermath Entertainment because he says he never granted permission for his songs to be sold on iTunes.
- Blog darlings Empire of The Sun are less one member these days: Singer Luke Steele says he hasn't seen bandmate Nick Littlemore in at least five months.
Keep the Dallas Observer Free... Since we started the Dallas Observer, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Dallas, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Dallas with no paywalls.
