Bruce Springsteen, Foo Fighters and Joan Baez are set to play Tom Morello’s new Power To The People Festival

Serj Tankian and Dropkick Murphys are also confirmed for the inaugural Maryland event in October.

The V&A is tracing the history of Britain’s grassroots venues and club culture in new free display

The free London show gathers Oasis lyrics, a Blur set list and the Astoria's original sign.
