The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame ceremony is this weekend. Who's getting in and who's showing up?

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Billy Idol , Oasis , Wu-Tang Clan , Phil Collins, Sade , Queen Latifah , Iron Maiden , Joy Division/New Order and the late Luther Vandross will be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame on Saturday. That's been established since the announcement six months ago. But not much has been revealed about who will show up, who will perform, who will induct them and who will give musical tributes to the new members. Fans learned Monday that Oasis will be a no-show. Iron Maiden previously revealed they won't be there either. A few more answers are likely to trickle out this week, but the Rock Hall likes to keep most of the show a surprise. For the second straight year, the ceremony that moves between Cleveland, New York and Los Angeles will be held at the Peacock Theater in downtown LA. After two years of streaming it live, the Rock Hall is returning to its previous model, where the public won't see it until an edited version airs on ABC and Disney+ in December. The list of 2026 honorees also includes MC Lyte, Celia Cruz , Fela Kuti and Gram Parsons, along with

This California Pie Shop Makes Thanksgiving Dessert Worth Skipping The Homemade Baking For

A former attorney walked away from law to bake pies full time. That might be the best closing argument I’ve ever heard. Her recipes come from generations of women in her family back in North Carolina. Now they fill an 11-inch deep-dish crust in California, made from scratch with organic produce whenever possible.

3 Country-Rock Songs From the 1970s That Helped Blur the Line Between Nashville and California

These three tracks are top hits from the 1970s country-rock movement. They each helped create a shortcut between Nashville and Los Angeles.

Pasadena Humane is honoring Adopt-a-Senior-Pet Month by waiving adoption fees

If you've ever had a dog or a cat that is well past the puppy or kitten stage, you know they have a few tails, er, tales to tell. They may not verbalize their stories in a way we can fully interpret or put their anecdotes to paper, but a person can pick up on the layers of their pet's long-lived life in loads of indescribable ways: The manner in which they approach dinnertime, the length of their couch cuddles, how their eyes meet yours when they hear their name.

The Untold Origin Story of L.A.’s Most Iconic Shrimp Taco

If I had to choose just one taco to represent Los Angeles, it’s the taco dorado de camarón from Mariscos Jalisco. It’s nearly perfect in every way. Texturally, it’s crunchy on the edges and custardy in the middle. It’s refreshing, thanks to the thick, gazpacho-adjacent tomato salsa with tender, roughly chopped bits of cabbage. It hits you in the face with just enough of its velvety, ultra-secret filling of briny chopped shrimp, onion, and who knows what else, which L.A. TACO has confirmed is totally free of potato, by the way, despite those who say otherwise. Countless recipes online have tried to replicate the taco; even Matty Matheson has tried to crack it, but nothing will ever be like Mariscos Jalisco.

Long Beach Unveils Naples Island Trail Plan Tied to $21M Seawall Fund Crunch

The Sorrento Trail, a waterside walkway along Naples Island, is linked to further seawall repairs in the area. The project, also known as the Sorrento Alamitos Bay Shoreline Trail, traces back to a 2013 Coastal Commission decision that tied trail construction to the Naples Island Seawall Repair Project. As the Long Beach Press-Telegram reported in 2017, the state Coastal Commission ruled that Long Beach had to reconstruct the trail as mitigation for Naples seawall repairs carried out in the water. That same report noted that the second phase of those seawall repairs was on hold at the time, pending Coastal Commission approval of the trail's design plans.

Fritz Coleman – Great Fun In His Third Year as the Longest-Running Solo Show in the History of the El Portal

One of the things about living in Los Angeles is bumping into people that the rest of the country only see on screen. Years ago, I went up an elevator in West LA with Dustin Hoffman and politely thanked him for his amazing performance in “Death of a Salesman” on Broadway years earlier. More recently, we saw Jay Leno in Hermosa Beach doing an impressive stand-up routine.
