Scene + Heard: 12 December

MUSIC NEWS:

Sinéad O’Connor and Sinn Féin would be a very newsworthy team, and the Facebook announcement by the singer that she had joined the party has probably met a mixed response from the hierarchy.

Meanwhile, it seems that Slayer really don’t live up to their name or their hard-rock image. Apparently, the band’s guitarist bought a freezing kitten from a homeless man for a dollar and proceeded to cuddle up with it on the tour bus before finding a home for it the next day. Ah bless.
