## Resource

On this episode of “Sound Up!,” Mark and Alan discuss the biggest music stories of recent weeks—Bruce Springsteen’s announcement of his new tour and the response from the White House, and the surprise release of U2’s new EP “Days of Ash”—as well as Steve Perry’s confirmation that he will not be joining Journey’s farewell tour. Mark recounts his appearance with fellow VJ Alan Hunter over the weekend in New Jersey, and Alan recaps a very strange onstage evening from Zak Starkey. Pod Squadder Sunita weighs in on the rebooted “Muppet Show,” and new music picks this week feature Shakey Graves and Megan Moroney.
