Take That Reunited Tour Dates Set For Next Summer

Dates have been set for various cities across the country and with tickets due to go on sale on the 29th October the aim is then to take the tour further a field to Europe. The last time the group went on tour was in 2009 and even without Robbie the tickets were a hit with fans

In times of recessions and high cost’s, is it worth going to a music festival?

In times of recessions and high cost’s, is it worth going to a music festival? A lot of people complain about the economy and about their personal finances and on the other hand attend a very expensive music festival!

Of course some people would not like to stop attending however sometimes a little sacrifice needs to be made to get through tough times. This is the same everywhere. At university, for high grades, you need to sacrifice you time, money and pleasure.

So before you begin to complain about your finances, think about it for a moment and then complain if you are doing everything in your power.

Sadness often follows from Music events for all

It has been researched that everyone who is involved in a music event will feel some sort of sadness and sometimes depression after attending a music event where ever it may be. Some of the reasons are:

  • Some people go to music events to take some pressure and problem off their head and while in the event – all seems well but as soon as they’re out, the problems returns even stronger.
  • People become skint! Sometimes £500+ is spent on visiting an event which only lasts one weekend. £500 is 2 weeks wages for some people.

So after reading this will you still attend?

Is it worth travelling thousands of miles for 1 concert?

Loads of people plan to go to concerts many months in advance and plan to travel very far – sometimes thousand’s of miles! Crazy. They complain about cash on one hand but go to a concert costing £2000+ which only lasts one weekend!

There is a limit to everything and if you don’t stick within it, you’re going to have a multitude of problems a little while after.

People want to live a luxurious life like celebrities and take out £20’000 on credit which they can’t pay back! Celebrities have more problems and personal issues than a normal person but it’s all kept quiet.

Fraudsters target music festivals in 2010

Mr Reg Walker, an industry insider who was speaking at the UK Festival Awards and Conference in London on Thursday, said that the thousands of fake tickets and wrist bands are likely to be in circulation next summer. He believes that friminals even had “test runs” this year to ensure that their mercandise would get through the scrutiny of the festival security.

Its a scary notion because as a none-expert in tickets, how does Joe Public tell the fake from the real thing? And what kind of come back do we have when buying these things online? Not a lot I would imagine.

U2′s concert builds new wall in Berlin

It will soon be the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall – and people want to celebrate. A free concert has been staged, and 10,000 tickets were snapped up within hours of their release. The problem is that nearly 10 times this number are trying to get in and listen to the concert, especially as they are hoping to catch a glimpse of U2.

So some bright spark has decided a barrier to keep out the un-ticketed is a good plan. It is unknown whether or not MTV or U2 gave the order for the building of this barrier, but either way – what a bad publicity stunt!
