"Elton John [ tickets ] is sorry that he was unable to perform his concert in Lisbon on the night of Wednesday 13th September, but is looking forward to performing the show for his Portuguese fans on 3rd November - when it is expected that the show will be able to start at the scheduled time and take place in a smoke-free environment."

--from Elton John's official website.

Stevie Wonder [ tickets ] and Wynnona are scheduled to perform at the Larry King Cardiac Foundation fundraiser at Washington D.C.'s Ritz-Carlton on Nov. 3.

The Nashville Network is changing its name to the National Network and dropping much of its country music programming, Variety reported.

The Secure Digital Music Initiative, a consortium of music and technology companies that recently invited hackers to try to breach 12 recently developed systems for keeping digital music secure, has found that most hackers don't want to assist the SDMI in developing this technology, Webnoize reported.

Jessica Simpson, Gerri Halliwell, Isaac Hayes, Cyndi Lauper and Aaron Carter appear on the "Rugrats in Paris--The Movie" soundtrack, due on November 7.

On Wednesday (9/20), liveDaily Briefly asked Phish [ tickets ] fans to share with us the term they use to warn of the presence of undercover police officers. (Click here to catch up.) Some fans, we learned, use the term "six up," some use "five oh" and some use "makisupa," from the song "Makisupa Policeman." (We're kind of disappointed, to be honest. We had hoped that Phish fan culture was more cohesive than that.)

Another thing we learned: Apparently, an undercover cop walking around a Phish concert parking lot stands out like a tarantula on a slice of angel food cake. (Thank you, Raymond Chandler.)

So in the interest of law enforcement, liveDaily Briefly offers the following tips to undercover police officers who want to remain inconspicuous:

• Don't lean against a squad car and take notes.

• Don't wear your "World's Greatest Dad" T-shirt.

• Once you've arrested someone, your cover is usually blown. You can't read someone his rights, then resume playing hacky-sack.

• Don't walk up to people and say, "Excuse me, son. Would you be willing to sell me some marijuana?"

• If someone does sell you marijuana, don't test it by wetting your finger and tasting it.

• A badge is not a nipple ring.

• After the show, don't yell out, "Okay, folks, show's over!"
