'These instruments are more than just tools of our trade—they're extensions of our musical souls,' said Wilson in a statement.

Their value to us is immeasurable.'

Is Sidwell Behind What Happened to Maxie on General Hospital?
General Hospital had Maxie on the edge of their seat when she crashed at the hospital. She went from seemingly being fine to having a heart attack out of nowhere. However, there may be a much more sinister reason for the health crisis she experienced. Sidwell's Agenda May Be At Play There have been a few clues that Maxie's (Kirsten Storms) near-death experience could have been planned and not a fluke. At the Metro Court, Sidwell (Carlo Rota) met James (Gary James Fuller). He learned more about Maxie than he knew, including her connection to Mac (John J. York). Sidwell was interested in what the little boy had to say, which didn't give us too much pause, until Maxie's emergency. While that may not be enough to draw conclusions, there is one more piece of the puzzle. When Sidwell was spending time with Lucy (Lynn Herring) ahead of the segment on Home & Heart, he was excited about it. Marco (Adrian Anchondo) found it odd that his father would be tuning in for the segment. Even though he has an interest in Deception, he's never been one to sit and watch things like that. Both are minor red flags, but enough to cause a bit of intrigue. After all, Sidwell has his hands in several situations in Port Charles, so why not this one? Maxie is Set to Exit GH It was announced that Kirsten Storms would be exiting the GH canvas for several months after she wrapped her scenes before summer break. This appears to be the beginning of that, as she is expected to be off-screen until later this year or early next year. She recently moved from Los Angeles to Nashville and is taking time to adjust to the change with her daughter, Harper. What happened to Maxie will have lasting consequences, and it may be a while before any answers are given. Play Farm Merge Valley

Post Malone Opens Up About Fatherhood and His 'Hilarious' Young Daughter: 'The Most Beautiful Creature'
Post Malone might be one of the biggest names in music right now—but above all else, he loves being a dad. The superstar—whose real name is Austin Richard Post—has kept a busy schedule as he shoots a campaign for Kim Kardashian's SKIMS brand and performs as part of his Post Malone Presents: The BIG A-- Stadium Tour. However, none of this has stopped him from making time for his three-year-old daughter. Malone, 30, recently gave rare details about life as a dad. In an August interview with GQ, the singer said he takes fatherhood "a day at a time." "I think it's important that way. We're learning every day. I don't know what the h--l I'm doing, and neither does she. She's just figuring it out," he continued. The "I Had Some Help" singer, who now lives in rural Utah, then revealed the "really sweet" activity his daughter enjoys doing in his newly renovated home. "And there's this big hallway where she can ride her bike, and she has this little toy horse, and she rides up and down and just f--king giggles the whole f--king time," he told the outlet. "It is the most beautiful thing I've ever experienced in my life. I'm pretty pumped on that. It's pretty cool. It's bada-- to be a dad." The 18-time Grammy Award-nominee then opened up about his young daughter's sense of humor. Referring to his friend and fellow megastar Jelly Roll, Malone said to GQ, "Jelly was opening up [on tour] and she went out to watch Jelly and her grandparents asked her, 'Who's a better singer, Jelly Roll or your dad?' She goes, 'Jelly Roll.' And I know she's f--king with me. "She does that all the time. She goes, 'I love you.' I say, 'How much?' She goes, 'A little.' I go, 'Oh, you little s--t.' And then she calls me a little s--t, too. It's pretty funny." The "Sunflower" singer then called his daughter, "f--king hilarious." He continued, "It's unstoppable. She's just the most beautiful creature to ever have existed on this earth. And I can't believe that... Well, I don't deserve something like that, but it's pretty cool that's in my life." Despite his success in the entertainment industry, Malone made it clear that he prioritizes family. "I think that's all you really need is just family, at the end of the day… You know I've been on the road for ten years, and I've been doing this pretty vigorously. After ten years, it's time to just take it easy," he told GQ. "And this is where you want to be. You want to be here with a little three-year-old little squirt and just push her into the water and then she calls you a little s--t," he continued. Malone welcomed his daughter—whom he shares with ex-fiancée and South Korean singer Hee Sung "Jamie" Park—in May 2022.

Beatlemania, Through the Eyes of Paul McCartney
ForThe Beatles, 1963 was the start of something great. Fresh off their first headlining UK tour, it was only up for Paul, George, Ringo and John, landing appearances on some of the region's most acclaimed television programs and an eventual residency at the Olympia Theatre in Paris. With this ascent to pop superstardom fittingly came global fervor, an unprecedented mass hysteria we now know as 'Beatlemania.' An upcomingPaul McCartneyexhibition atGagosianLondon brings us back to this era – December 1963 through February 1964 – offering a backstage look at one of music's enduring names. TitledRearview Mirror: Liverpool-London-Paris, the presentation will feature an array of multi-image works and single frames, presumed lost for the last five decades, all lensed through the bassist's 35mm Pentax. From backstage candids to tender self-portraits in the mirror, the photographs on view expose a more sensitive side of the pop pioneers and McCartney's lesser-known visual finesse. Remastered from original negatives and contact sheets, each photograph is signed by the artist and presented in a frame of his design. On view from August 28 through October 4,Rearview Mirror: Liverpool-London-Pariscomes as a follow up to the artist's debutpresentationwith the gallery earlier this year at its Beverly Hills outpost, and runs concurrently withEye of the Stormat the de Young, Fine Arts Museum of San Francisco, now on view through October 5.
