The List for Wednesday, February 22nd 2023

Welcome to The List,

Straying from the country side for a moment…Fans of glam rock are in luck – Mr. Big is moving forward with plans for a reunion tour in 2023. The ‘To Be With You’ band has been promising a comeback for years, especially after the tragic death of original drummer Pat Torpey in 2018. Now, frontman Eric Martin says that they are ready to hit the road and honor their late friend.

Cobra Kai fans are in an emotional quandary right now as they wait for Season 6 to premiere on Netflix. Last month, Netflix officially announced that Season 6 was in the works, but also that it would be the final season of the show.  Cobra Kai has become one of the most popular Netflix original series in the entire catalog, and six seasons is a pretty good run by the streamer’s standards.

Blake Shelton is allegedly “miserable” in his marriage to Gwen Stefani. According to Radar Online, the pair were spotted not having a good time at NASCAR’s Busch Light Clash.  Stefani spent part of the event doing commentary for Fox. Later, however, sources claimed that the singer and her country star husband appeared unhappy…I would probably say ‘bored’…Do the cars get above 50 miles per hour in that small space?

Alan Jackson’s CMT disorder won’t be keeping him out of the studio.  During an interview on his daughter Mattie’s “In-Joy Life” podcast he said he doesn’t tour much, but the “creative part jumps out now and then” . . . and he feels like there WILL be new music on the way.

Radar Online claims 76 year old Cher is allegedly planning to elope with her 37 year old boyfriend Alexander Edwards…and the public reacts! (crickets)

Jo Dee Messina is on tour right now, and as an ode to her 1996 hit, it’s called the “Heads Carolina, Tails California” tour.  It kicked off in North Carolina last week and will wrap up in California in November with a stop at Tailgates N’ Tallboys in Clinton Iowa June 9th.  She’s also releasing a greatest hits album next month.

The List for Friday, December 12th 2025

Welcome to The List,

Diddy is allegedly gearing up for a one-billion-dollar legal smackdown against Netflix over the docuseries Sean Combs: The Reckoning. His camp says there’s unauthorized personal footage in the series. The director fired back saying the footage came to them legally, with full rights, and added that Diddy has basically filmed himself obsessively for decades. She also says they repeatedly asked his legal team for comment and heard… nothing. I’ve watched it and let’s just say, this lawsuit is gonna need popcorn. We with him all the luck.

Lainey Wilson and Devlin Hodges are reportedly planning a big, expensive wedding and sources say Lainey wants the best of the best. Here’s the twist: neither one of them is swimming in mega-millions. But Lainey loves everyone, considers everyone a friend, and apparently invited half of Nashville. Rumored guests include Dolly, Blake and Gwen, Luke Bryan, Jelly Roll, Morgan Wallen, and more. At this point, it’s less a wedding and more a CMA after-party with vows.

-----

The lineup is out for New Year’s Eve Live: Nashville’s Big Bash and it is stacked. Lainey Wilson, Zach Top, Riley Green, Megan Moroney, and a whole parade of country hitmakers are ringing in the new year. So if you’re staying home on New Year’s Eve, congratulations Nashville already planned your soundtrack.

And finally… when Leslie Nielsen died, he went out exactly how you’d expect. A fart machine was placed in his casket and anyone walking up to the bar at his funeral could push a button and make him fart. Even in death, the man committed to the bit. That’s not just comedy… that’s legacy planning.
