Reddit's 'Ask Me Anything' interviews (AMAs for short) have become something of a rite of passage for public figures -- not to mention a fascinating forum for sharing interesting and/or useful information.

Well, it finally happened, Rush fans -- the legendary Canadian power trio is finally, officially, ensconced in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

While he continues to put the finishing touches on his first solo album of new music since 2007's 'Memory Almost Full,' Paul McCartney is hitting the road for what he's dubbing the 'Out There Tour' -- and although his itinerary is still rather small, he's just added another six dates to the schedule.

He's been dead for decades -- and the subject of countless retrospectives ever since -- but that doesn't mean we've heard and seen everything Jim Morrison committed to tape before he passed away.
