Annapolis Summer Garden Theater's "Shout! The Mod Musical" is star-studded show that rates a hearty shout of approval.

During this week 48 years ago, Gemini 10 was launched, "Lost" actor Matthew Fox was born and people were groovin' on the following songs, via Billboard's Hot 100 chart archive.

"One, two, three, FOUR!" Never has a foreign invasion of a country's culture been announced in such a way. But so it was when American disc jockeys began playing the B-side of a .45 rpm record by a popular British rock 'n' roll quartet in January 1964.

Happy 12/12/12! Possibly fueled by this unique bit of numerology, the Internet is buzzing with news this morning. Beatle's guru Ravi Shankar is dead, the pope is an overeager Tweeter and North Korea is making everyone mad again.

The Library of Congress today released a collection of interviews on topics such as sex, drugs and rock and roll -- including Paul McCartney relating how pot and other drugs boosted the Beatles' creativity.

Spots are getting scant on the teams of NBC's "The Voice" so the coaches are getting pickier and pickier (and sassier and sassier)

What plays well in a stadium doesn't always work so well on TV.But if the in-person thumbs-up reviews out of London Friday were accurate, the opening ceremonies of the Summer Olympics were a winner on both fronts. By and large, the version shown for four and a half hours tape delay on NBC Friday night certainly made for a fine opening to the games.
