Linkin Park‘s mysterious countdown clock finally reached zero tonight – only to begin counting up again. Earlier this week, the band teased some kind of activity by sharing a mysterious countdown on their social media accounts. The ‘Numb’ hitmakers took to their official X/Twitter to share a video...

Linkin Park’s mysterious countdown clock ends… and then begins counting up again

In a new interview with Metal Express Radio 's Bryce Van Patten, guitarist Andy Scott of the legendary rock band SWEET was asked about the existence of another touring and recording act called THE SWEET which contains no members from the original SWEET lineup. Andy said (as transcribed by BLABBERMOUTH.NET): "Steve [Priest, late SWEET bassist] was an original member. Brian [Connolly, late SWEET singer] was an original member… Well, it's not something I would've liked, but when Mick [Tucker, original SWEET drummer] and I were together from the mid-'80s — '84, '85 — if Brian could have still sung, which being the singer that he was, we would've had him back in the band. But he couldn't sing. And that's what a singer needs to do. And to be frank, you just didn't know what you were gonna get. Every time I met Brian in the '80s and the '90s, he looked different and he didn't look well. And it's a difficult thing. If he'd have looked like that and was still able to sing, it would've been different because everybody ages. But you can't go back into a situation made you move away from that in the first stage. Steve did not want to rejoin Mick and I, I found out later. He turned around to me and he said, 'I hated it by the end. So why would you think I would want to come back in and do it all again?' And I went, 'Well, I thought you were doing nothing, mate.' That would have been a good enough starting point. Come back and be with your mates. But he didn't. So we had Brian, Brian on his own going to Germany to do these oldie shows, as they were called. We had 10 lead singers and had one backing band and they'd all go up and do two or three of their hits and it was like a show for oldies. And then he found a band that would back him properly, and he was going on tour with Les Gray from MUD. But Les Graywas MUD, but Brian wasn't SWEET. So he had to go on as THE NEW SWEET, and all of a sudden I'm thinking, 'Oh, we're going down this road, are we?'"

Screen legend Elizabeth Taylor, who died in 2011, was a pioneering advocate for the LGBTQ Community long before it became fashionable to do so. As fate would have it, three of Taylor's dearest friends were closeted gay male Hollywood icons: Montgomery Clift, James Dean, and Rock Hudson. All three men died in tragic ways. Hudson died from AIDS in 1985, while Clift and Dean died in a very eerily similar manner: in car accidents.
