Breakups

After 35 years of togetherness and weathering what could have been a career-crippling storm when original singer Michael Hutchence committed suicide in 1997, INXS are calling it and day and are breaking up. Drummer Jon Farriss made the announcement mid-set at the band's show in Perth, Australia, yesterday (Nov. 11.)

In a recent interview, Mark Farner, one-time leader of Grand Funk Railroad, talked about the legacy of the mighty band.  “We were a bunch of 20-year-old rock and rollers who were putting our thoughts out there and looking for answers, and so were our fans.” he said. ” We were saying what everybody wanted to say.”
