When the Rolling Stones announce they're getting back to business, they mean they're getting back to business. After holding a surprise gig in Paris not long ago, the rock legends announced they will headline a huge show at Hyde Park in London on July 6. They'll perform there as part of the British Summer Time festival. Support n the day will come from The Vaccines, The Temper Trap, Gary Clark Jr and King Charles, plus Palma Violets, Tribes, The Boxer Rebellion and more. This [...]

Following a fun, and seemingly expensive, guerrilla marketing campaign rock royalty  The Rolling Stones have finally announced their first real tour since 2007. The North American segment of the "50 & Counting Tour" starts off at the Staples Center in Los Angeles on a date to be determined depending on the hockey playoffs and is currently set to come to a close at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia on June 18th, before the Stones head overseas to play Hyde Park in London on July 6th.

The Rolling Stones cumplieron 50 años en 2012 Al parecer a Mick Jagger y Keith Richards no les fueron suficientes las presentaciones que tuvieron el año pasado en el Estados Unidos con motivo de la celebración de sus 50 años, este año emprenderán una gira en estadios y arenas. Según reportó Rolling Stone , AEG Live serán los promotores de esta gira que dejará en los bolsillos de los Stones entre 4 y 5 millones de dolares por show, por lo que los boletos más caros oscilaran los 500 [...]

Drummer/DJ Roger Taylor of Duran Duran looks back on 2012.

Ah London 2012. A time of great prosperity; of sporting prowess and cross-cultural celebration! For many (mostly so-called Games Makers , I'd cynically presuppose) those were what one may deem the days – ones spent slobbing about glued to incomprehensible excuses for sport to be revered as a wholly worthwhile alternative to actual work . An elephantine sandpit was plonked down right outside Buckingham Palace, littered with a multiethnic scantily clad and the place was supposedly all the better for it, whilst fortunes were blown on tickets modestly priced at anything up to £2,012. God it [...]

El primer adelanto del próximo DVD correspondiente al show que dio Blur en Hyde Park como parte de la clausura de los Juegos Olímpicos de Londres 2012 fue " Under the Westway ", con un clip que dieron a conocer hace apenas una semana. Ahora presentan " Young and Lovely ", tema que fue originalmente el lado b de " Chemical World ", el segundo sencillo del segundo álbum de la banda, Modern Life is Rubbish , y que hasta hace poco permanecía sepultada en la [...]

Pocos de nosotros teníamos la posibilidad de ser testigos del show que Blur dio en Hyde Park como parte de la celebración de clausura de los Juegos Olímpicos que tuvieron lugar en Londres este año. Por fortuna para todos los que nos quedamos de este lado del mar y nos tuvimos que resignar a escuchar la transmisión que se hizo en vivo por la radio, el show tendrá su propio lanzamiento en DVD el próximo 3 de diciembre. Como avance de este concierto, la banda acaba de publicar un video en el que los [...]

LiveNation, who have held the contract for running gigs in Hyde Park, have pulled out of the bidding process to carry on. And they're not doing so with good grace : Live Nation has written a formal letter of complaint about the tender and bid process for the new contract. It is understood that the letter raises issues such as noise – in July Bruce Springsteen and Sir Paul McCartney's microphones were switched off during a duet due to curfew issues. Other issues understood to have been highlighted by Live Nation include crowd safety considerations [...]

In attesa di vederli il prossimo anno a maggio nelle due edizioni del PrimaveraSound (Barcellona e Porto) e al festival di Werchter, in Belgio, i Blur pubblicano Parklive : un doppio CD dal vivo che testimonia il concerto a Hyde Park del 12 agosto. La versione standard include anche un bonus disc con live inediti e - sempre a partire dal 3 dicembre - sarà disponibile poi un cofanetto con quattro CD ed un DVD, incluso il disco " Blur Live At The 100 Club " e un libro fotografico di [...]

In the past two years, I have witnessed pretty much every single band that I loved between 1995 and 2004 embark on some kind of reunion or comeback. Some have been nostalgic fun, some have been 'just okay' and others have been lacklustre and trampled over their legacy. Then there has been a very,very slight [...]

In the pearly hue of distant spotlights, shining down on a stage set in the heart of West London waits four men – ready to become legends. They’re dreams are truly Olympic, their destiny, to be the band the public recount for bringing British music home. They are Blur , they are wonderful, and they are home. "We wrote this in February, just imagining what the last day of the Olympics would feel like, being here," says Damon Albarn, soaring into the intro of the truly cathartic 'Under The Westway', a 21st century anthem for [...]

While most of Britain was focusing on the terrible sound at the early part of the closing ceremony - was it awful or a kindness that Sugg's terrible voice was so hard to hear? - people over in Hyde Park were having a rotten time of a whole different stripe. Or, rather, a similar stripe, as Blur's supposed farewell show suffered from rotten sound. Some people got to hear the gig, but not most, as Hyde Park organisers tried to balance selling 40,000 tickets for a soundsystem turned down to serve 10,000. [...]

Would you take espadrilles and only espadrilles down Worthy Farm ? Arguably not, no. Would you, however, trudge wellies and only wellies round Hyde Park come the middle of July? Why absolutely! I've never been all that attracted to these sorts of upchucked stadium blowouts spewed out over once pleasant pastures, and it's perhaps this blind subscription to red top scandalisation that's scratched away the sheen. Sartorially (this evening it looks as though Oxford Street shat its gizzards out on Hyde Park) and sensorially drab, numbing disenchantment predominates. Thus demagnetised by mainstream culture, these largely vexatious happenings – a [...]

I do love Bruce Springsteen bootlegs. Especially if they're from famous or infamous shows, like the recent one at Hyde Park where Paul McCartney and Tom Morello both guested and the show was cut short. This one is courtesy of dukewx and was recorded from the left side in between the main and side stacks with Church Audio CA14 Cardiod + 9100 pre-amp > Sony PCM-M10. Whatever that entails!

Madonna continua a far parlare di sè, nel bene e nel male, come sempre. Per questo in così tanti la amano. Qual è la famosa frase? Che se ne parli bene o male, l'importante è che se ne parli. Missione compiuta. Partiamo dalla notizia più recente. Pare che l'Australia non sia nei piani del MDNA Tour . La Live Nation, infatti, ha confermato martedì la cancellazione del tour australiano della popstar. Ecco le precise parole di un portavoce: "Il MDNA tour di Madonna terminerà in Sud America a Dicembre, come pianificato. E' [...]
