If you're still casually easing yourself back into work, damn you. And if like us, you're already in the thick of it, hello, welcome.
This week, Southbound 2016 got cancelled due to the spreading bushfires in WA, Falls Festival ploughed on with their numerous sideshows and in sports, Chris Gayle tried his luck with female sports journalist Mel McLaughlin, to much criticism. Coachella announced their 2016 line-up featuring the hotly rumoured Guns N' Roses — Slash and Axl Rose included — while LCD Soundsystem announced they'd reunite at the festival too.
Here's what some musos and celebrities had to say about it all.

Whenever I picture Coachella I just imagine Mischa Barton wandering around an empty field in a fedora.

chris gayle
Putting aside #chrisgayle's sleaze for a moment, why isn't @Mel_Mclaughlin the anchor/captain of the whole BBL coverage? Great broadcaster.

guns n' roses reunion
Good to see Guns n' Roses headlining the second night of Coachella which means Axl will actually get on stage around mid-afternoon Day 3...

Axl Rose canceled an appearance onThe Jimmy Kimmel Show? Couldn't he find someone to cover his shift at Target?

Southbound is cancelled due to the bushfire, ICYMI. Would've been a fantastic weekend but was the right thing to do. Stay safe, everybody!
