Given the crowd response, is it time @tinaarena and @TheVeronicas got their own slots at festivals like Splendour in the Grass, rather than just being pop-up special guests? And should our festivals be more open to pop acts, ala Glastonbury and Coachella? https://t.co/xF4Mociq21

Morten Harket of a-ha on touring Australia for the first time since 1986, where they'll play their debut album Hunting High & Low in full - and Take on Me as the first song. "We made peace with Take on Me a long time ago. It's the joker in the pack." https://t.co/IW6TXG6lb6

Spoke to Michael Howe, who gets to archive the contents of Prince's mythical vault for a living. He talks about what's left in there and his process of documenting one of the most precious collections of unheard material in music https://t.co/QBBsyg9Rk0 …

New Eyes, new era: @adamlambert on how Queen helped inspire him to stop chasing trends and opt for timeless music. He also discusses mental health ("these struggles are normal"), the end of his bachelor life and a brand new song that's coming in hot https://t.co/6HsoL4L5m3

[Cameron Adams @cameron_adams]

With U2 bringing their Joshua Tree tour here, why do 'heritage' bands keep playing their greatest hits? Is it because they now charge a small fortune for the best seats? Is it too risky for an older act to try and fill a stadium playing new songs? https://t.co/IUD1YTVIOf

How @chrishemsworth Aussie upbringing with brothers Luke and Liam made him a natural for fighting and stunts in Hollywood blockbusters such as @thorofficial @Avengers and @MenInBlack #ChrisHemsworth #Thor #Avengers #MenInBlackInternational https://t.co/lQ9IztrKQw

[Herald Sun @theheraldsun]

From action to drama to comedy, Chris Hemsworth is the complete package. And thanks to a rough-and-tumble childhood with his brothers, he has a natural knack for extreme action, putting him alongside the likes of Tom Cruise and Hugh Jackman. https://t.co/6ds1eq39iP

He’s coming home: Jason Donovan @JDonOfficial will play Billy Flynn in the Melbourne leg of Chicago this summer - and plans to take a trip back to the set of @neighbours https://t.co/GmzzKfqLjm

Everyone gets it wrong from time to time - and @theheraldsun movie critic @leighpaatsch is man enough to he admit sold The Big Lebowski short. The Dude Abides. https://t.co/6kgubw40dI

🎮 GAMING REVIEW 🎮

#Rage2 is moreish and easy to waste time on.

But it’s a surface level fun that won’t live up to the personality and quirkiness of rival #Borderlands, writes @hexsteph.
