The Academic Use Delay From Facebook Live to Loop a Song
The Academic used the delay from a Facebook Live recording to loop their song. Mashable explains, but it’s really worth seeing:
It’s a little easier to understand if you actually see it in action, but essentially, the band performs for a Facebook Live feed that’s then projected behind them. They manage to sync up and perform with the same delayed feed a few seconds later, and as the song progresses, it gets more and more interesting.

The Uncomfortable Disregard for Legendary Rockers’ Sexual Misconduct
Alex Young, writing at Consequence of Sound:
“It was a different time, sex was treated differently back then” is the argument commonly used to justify the transgressions perpetrated by heroes like Chuck Berry, Bill Wyman, Jimmy Page, and Iggy Pop. All these men and many more have acknowledged engaging in romantic relationships with women well under the age of 18 when they themselves were in their 20s or 30s. Wyman was 47 years old when he began dating a 13-year-old girl — of course, with the approval of her mother. Wyman’s former band, The Rolling Stones, later flaunted their dalliances with underage groupies on merchandise sold during their 1994 Voodoo Lounge tour.
