George Michael cancels tour over anxiety
George Michael cancelled his Australian tour yesterday, revealing that he was battling "major anxiety" after a bout with pneumonia. He said he was heartbroken to cancel the Australian leg of his current Symphonica tour, which was postponed last year due to his pneumonia and was scheduled to kick off in Perth on November 10. "Since last year's illness I have tried in vain to work my way through the trauma," Michael said in a statement. "I had believed wrongly that making music and getting out there to perform for the audiences would be therapy enough in itself." * AFP

Flowers takes lessons for new album
The Killers frontman Brandon Flowers thought it was a good idea to take voice lessons before recording the band's new album. "It seemed like the right thing to do," he said. "I wanted to be better. We fine-tuned a few things." His voice is all over Battle Born, the band's fourth album that came out on September 17. But Flowers insists his maturity as a vocalist hasn't affected the core sound of the band. "We try to take a little bit of Las Vegas with us everywhere we go," he said of the group, which kicks off a world tour on October 26 in Glasgow. * AP
