This week’s concerts: Chris Brown, 3 Doors Down, Erasure and more
Chris Brown is in town Friday, so it’s time to start guessing what sort of trouble he’ll get into. A scuffle with a photographer? It’s happened at least twice in Tampa Bay alone, including last April at a club near Amalie Arena. Or maybe it’ll be some other controversy involving his violent history. Just last month he was hit with another restraining order — at least his third, if you’re keeping track — by a woman who said he stalked and struck her.
Soul Asylum’s Dave Pirner talks Runaway Train,’ covering Beyonce, the Minnesota music scene and more
Soul Asylum's Runaway Train was the 1-800-273-8255 of its time. Like Logic's 2017 suicide prevention anthem, Runaway Train was a rare major hit that had a real-world, life-saving impact, thanks to a video featuring photos of actual missing teen runaways. Nice legacy, right? When I point this out to Soul Asylum's Dave Pirner, however, it sounds like the connection had never crossed his mind.

Review: Whitney’ documentary an unflinching look at Whitney Houston’s long downfall
There today is no singer like a young Whitney Houston. Beyoncé, Adele, Lady Gaga — maybe on their best days, they come close to matching the voice, the radiance, the potential of early Whitney. But not every day. Those highest highs, and the vast gap down to her lowest lows, are a big part of what make Whitney, the unflinching new documentary about her life by Oscar-winning director Kevin Macdonald (One Day in September), so compelling.
Erasure's Andy Bell opens up about finding love in laid-back Tampa

Both were HIV-positive — Hickey was diagnosed in 1990, Bell in 1998. Then, in the summer of 2010, Bell booked a gig at the Honey Pot, an Ybor City gay club owned by Stephen Moss. "I had just done Dallas Pride, and then flew to Tampa on my own," Bell said by phone recently.

This week’s best concerts: Thirty Seconds to Mars, Culture Club, Donny and Marie, more
All due respect to Heath Ledger, but Jared Leto might actually be the perfect Joker, since everything he does asks the question: Why so serious? So much of the Oscar-winning actor’s output screams HEART with a capital ART scrawled in blood across his chest, particularly as it relates to Thirty Seconds to Mars. Their new album America is another collection of shadowy rock atmospherics and unrepentant chest-beating anthems.
