With the rise of free music streaming services like Spotify, touring has become the bread and butter of groups both big and small. As such, the market for tours this year was arguably as diverse as it has ever been. More importantly, though, bands hit the road and hit the road hard in 2011, generating massive profits for a year of decidedly positive turnarounds. According to Billboard's year-end report , U2 were the top touring act of 2011, with their "360 Tour" generating $293.3 million in box office revenue and nearly 3 million in ticket [...]

Friday Five : \'frī-(,)dā,-dē 'fīv\ : On the sixth day of every week, I hit the shuffle button on my iTunes, then share the first five tracks and thought for each track.

Hey. We need to talk. People are not taking your mom’s musical taste seriously. This is probably because your mom’s taste in music is horrible.

AC/DC was too hard rock. Iron Maiden and Judas Priest didn't
La vitalità fatta persona. Ecco il video di una concorrente che si è presentata con lo stesso entusiasmo che solitamente io ho di fronte all'insalata nel mio primo giorno di dieta. Poi però, quando inizia a cantare... chi la ferma più? Sicuramente non i gradini, dal momento che ha preso il volo, precipitando dal palco con la grazia di una gallina ubriaca ( dal minuto 1,36 ). Ma lei si rialza, come insegna il motto : The show must go on. Ah, se vi foste distratti, stava cantando 'Shot Through The Heart' [...]
