NewBay Acquires Guitar World

NewBay Media, publisher of Guitar Player magazine, today acquired Guitar World magazine, along with two other guitar magazines previously operated by Future US. So far there is no word on whether the acquisition means Guitar Player will stop publishing, or if so, how soon.

Notes

It is a new year, and new albums are on the way from:

1. Van Halen (with David Lee Roth)
2. Aerosmith
3. Richie Sambora
4. The Fixx
5. Paul McCartney
6. Roxette
7. Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
8. Ultravox
9. Focus
10. The Beach Boys (with Brian Wilson)

Television is not just broadcast, cable, and satellite anymore, and so for the first time this year, the National Football League will be live-streaming the Pro Bowl and Super Bowl on the Internet.
