April 19, 2012 In the early afternoon of April 18, I found out that one of my radio idols, Dick Clark, had passed away. I was saddened immediately. Jami Bond went on the air right away and announced the news! I met her in the hallway and she said what I was feeling: "That was tough, I nearly broke into tears." American Bandstand host Dick Clark was 82.
'American Idol' season 10 is officially down to the final three. Over 72 million votes were cast this week, making it the highest top-four vote ever in the history of the show.

On Monday night, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inducted several more music legends into its ranks, including Alice Cooper, Neil Diamond, Dr. John, Darlene Love, Tom Waits, Jac Holzman, Art Rupe and Leon Russell.
