From the Boston Globe:
Brad Delp's death hasn't exactly healed old wounds. Far from it. Since the Boston singer committed suicide last March, relations among members of the multiplatinum act have become poisonous, as evidenced by a lawsuit filed by the band's mastermind, Tom Scholz, against Delp's ex-wife Micki and Connie Goudreau, wife of Boston guitarist Barry Goudreau.

- The tribute for Brad in August raised $11,325 for the DTS Charitable Foundation, which was donated in Brad’s memory to The Humane Farming Association. Tom also made a matching contribution from the foundation to Earth Save.
- Tom recently took some time out from recording some new BOSTON songs to lay the lead guitar tracks for Stryper’s “Peace of Mind” cover that will appear on their next CD. Both Gary and Tom are planning to make a guest appearance with Stryper at a benefit concert on 25 February 2008 in Providence, RI. Proceeds from this show will be going to the Station Family Fund, which provides survivor relief from the horrific February 2003 nightclub fire in Rhode Island.
- Rolling Stone asked Tom to share some memories of Brad for their December issue. Only a portion of what Tom wrote appeared in the magazine, you can see the full response on the website.

If you've been waiting impatiently for the last month waiting for iTunes to finally get the Delp and Goudreau song Rockin' Away on the iTunes music store, well wait no longer, because they finally have it.
When Barry Goudreau did the interview in WHEB on Oct 16 to discuss the song, he had indicated that Rockin' Away would be available in iTunes "any day". Well almost a month has passed and as of Nov 14, it's now listed on the iTunes music store and selling for $0.99. Interestingly enough, the release date shown for the song on the iTunes store is Oct 16/07. Be aware that if you purchase the song on iTunes, it is DRM protected, while the track at Discark is not. |
