Alicia Keys, Black Eyed Peas To Kick Off World Cup

SOURCE: billboard.com

Black Eyed Peas, John Legend and Alicia Keys will be joined by a host of South American and African music stars for the FIFA World Cup Kick-Off Celebration Concert.

Other acts include Colombian superstars Juanes and Shakira, Mali’s acclaimed duo Amadou & Mariam, desert blue’s outfit Tinariwen, Malian singer and guitarist Vieux Farka Touré, and Benin’s Angelique Kidjo.

So far, host country South Africa has three acts in the line-up: rock acts BLK JKS and the Parlotones, and folk singer-songwriter Vusi Mahlasela. It is the first time the tournament has been staged in Africa.

The concert takes place June 10 at the newly-renovated Orlando Stadium in Johannesburg’s Soweto township on the day before the 2010 tournament gets underway. It’s the first time FIFA has staged a multi-artist “kick-off” concert of this nature, with more acts expected to be added to the line-up in the coming weeks.

Local broadcast support for the event comes from three Joburg-based independent regional radio stations Kaya-FM, Talk Radio 702 and 94.7 Highveld Stereo. Organizers have also confirmed the concert will be televised globally although have yet to announce international TV and radio broadcast partners.

In a press statement, former South African football international and Leeds United player Lucas Radebe said, “Music and Sports are the lifeblood of African culture, so to combine those in this historic event will be a true celebration of African Culture.” Radebe will be one of the past and present football legends who will join the international and African music acts on stage at the event.

The FIFA World Cup Kick-Off Celebration Concert is executive-produced by Emmy Award-winning producer Kevin Wall and his company Control Room, in partnership with local promoter, Showtime Entertainment.

Kevin Wall, founder of Control Room, commented: “We believe sports and music transcend cultural, language and geographic barriers… Control Room will present the sights and sounds of unity and celebration for an unforgettable, must-see experience.”

Tickets priced from 450 rand ($62) to 1,150 rand ($158) went on sale today (March 17). The capacity of the stadium is 40,000.

The last FIFA World Cup in Germany in 2006 attracted a global cumulative television audience of 26.29 billion for the tournament, according to FIFA.

International Pop Superstar Lady Gaga Announces 2010 North American Tour

 

Virgin Mobile Presents THE MONSTER BALL TOUR STARRING LADY GAGA

 

————————————————————-

 

Tickets Go On Sale Beginning March 19th.

NOTE: There will be presales for many, if not all shows beginning Tuesday the 16th. I will post presale passwords, links and presale times as I get them HERE under the LADY GAGA TAG.

 

 

————————————————————

 

LOS ANGELES, March 15 /source: PRNewswire/ — (thanks TK for the heads up)

Lady Gaga, TICKETS one of the most exciting and innovative new artists in recent history, has announced her highly anticipated return to North America on the heels of her sold-out European tour. The 2010 North American leg of The Monster Ball Tour, presented by Virgin Mobile, will begin on June 28th at Montreal’s Bell Centre, taking her spectacular show to 31 top arenas and a host of new cities in the U.S. and Canada throughout the summer and fall.  

In keeping with Lady Gaga’s flair for the theatrical, as well as her innovative and creative spirit, the second leg of the tour promises to push the limits of the live concert experience, bringing fans a spectacle even more eye-popping than what they experienced during the thrilling first leg of The Monster Ball.  

“It’s still called Monster Ball, but it’s more of a musical and less of a concert,” Lady Gaga said in a February interview with KIIS-FM’s Ryan Seacrest. “It has a New York theme, it’s a story, and the story is that me and my friends are in New York and we’re going to the Monster Ball, and we get lost.”

Critics around the world raved about the first leg of The Monster Ball Tour, which Gaga described as “the first-ever pop-electro opera.” The Sun called it “breathtaking stuff” and “the best live show you will see this year,” while London’s Independent wrote: “Gaga’s got it, which is why, right now, the whole pop world wants to take a ride on her disco stick.”  Writing about her show at Radio City Music Hall, the New York Times noted that “her Monster Ball tour always provided something worth a snapshot: a sci-fi tableau, perhaps, or a skimpy, glittery costume. The more her image gets around, the better Lady Gaga does.”

Live Nation Global Touring is the International tour promoter and producer for The Monster Ball under the direction of Arthur Fogel, CEO Global Touring and Chairman – Global Music Live Nation who said: “Lady Gaga has set out to revolutionize pop music and with her new production she continues to do exactly that.  We’re thrilled to take The Monster Ball to fans around the world.”

Lady Gaga is touring in support of The Fame Monster, which was released on November 18th, 2009, by Streamline/Konlive/Cherrytree/Interscope. The album is the follow-up to 2008’s Grammy Award-winning album The Fame, which spawned the No. 1 singles “Just Dance” and “Poker Face.” Combined, The Fame and The Fame Monster have sold 10 million albums worldwide, while Lady Gaga’s five singles, “Just Dance,” “Poker Face,” “Lovegame,” “Paparazzi,” and “Bad Romance,” have sold more than 30 million singles worldwide. The video for “Bad Romance” has racked up more than 125 million online views.  Lady Gaga recently premiered the video for her new single “Telephone,” featuring Beyonce, on the E! television network and entertainment website VEVO.

Tickets (general admission floors and reserved seating in the stands) for The Monster Ball go on sale in select markets including New York, Vancouver, Toronto, San Jose, Los Angeles, and Boston beginning March 19th.

Virgin Mobile customers will have access to presale tickets beginning Tuesday, March 16th at 10am local time.  ”We are excited to take our partnership with Lady Gaga and The Monster Ball Tour to another level,” said Bob Stohrer, VP of Marketing for Virgin Mobile USA. “We’ll also build on our partnership around combating youth homelessness and continue to enhance the tour experience for fans and our customers.” For details visit www.virginmobileusa.com.

Citi® cardmembers will also have access to presale tickets beginning Tuesday, March 16th at 10am local time through Citi’s Private Pass® Program. For complete presale details visit www.citiprivatepass.com.

Eagles Continue Adding Shows To “EDEN” excursion

Posted by admin On March - 8 - 2010

Eagles continue tacking dates onto ‘Eden’ excursion

SOURCE: livedaily.com

For the third time in the last month, the Eagles [ tickets ] have confirmed additional stops for their forthcoming North American run behind “Long Road Out of Eden.”

The outing kicks off with the band’s Hollywood Bowl debut over the course of three nights (4/16-4/17, 4/20). Since last check, a trio of late-May shows have been added to the end of the trek: May 20 in Denver, May 22 in Ontario, CA, and May 23 in San Diego. The full schedule is shown at right.

Tickets for most shows are available now via Ticketmaster, while the May 22 Ontario performance goes on sale March 15.

The iconic rockers continue supporting 2007’s “Long Road Out of Eden,” the band’s first new studio album since 1979’s “The Long Run.” The set debuted at No. 1 on The Billboard 200 chart after posting first-week sales of 711,000 copies, and went on to become 2007’s top-selling album by a group, according to Nielsen SoundScan.

“Long Road Out of Eden” also earned the group Grammy Awards for Best Country Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals for “How Long” in 2008, and Best Pop Instrumental Performance for “I Dreamed There Was No War” in 2009.

In late 2007, frontman Don Henley gave a rare interview to CNN, during which he suggested the award-winning effort could be the band’s last.

“This is probably the last Eagles album that we’ll ever make. So we decided to just say whatever we felt like saying. And let the chips fall where they may.

“I can’t sit here and tell you for certain that there will never be another Eagles album, but we got 20 songs on this album. You know, we got a lot of things off our chest, so to speak.”

SOURCE: livedaily.com

Lady Antebellum, Carrie Underwood and Miranda Lambert lead the pack with the most nominations for the 45th annual Academy of Country Music Awards, which takes place next month in Las Vegas.

Country trio Lady Antebellum dominates the categories with seven nominations, including Album of the Year and Top Vocal Group. Lambert and Underwood, the latter of whom is the reigning Entertainer of the Year, trail with six nods each. The two are going head to head for Top Female Vocalist of the Year. If Underwood wins Entertainer of the Year again, she will become the first female in Academy history to take home two trophies in the category.

Taylor Swift is nominated for five awards, while Kenny Chesney and Brad Paisley are both in the running for four trophies each.

The complete list of nominees is shown below.

The awards ceremony, which will be hosted by country icon Reba McEntire, will air live on the CBS Television Network from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas on April 18, according to a press release. It will be McEntire’s 12th time at the helm of the annual awards presentation.

The evening’s presenters and performers will be announced soon, according to the event’s website.

Fans are asked to vote in three categories: Top New Solo Vocalist, Top New Vocal Group and Top New Vocal Duo–and can cast online ballots now through March 12 at VoteACM.com. The winners from each category will be revealed March 23, after which they move on to compete for Top New Artist.

Fans can vote for Top New Artist and Entertainer of the Year from April 1-18.

In addition to the awards show, the Academy will put on an all-star benefit concert special called “ACM Presents: Brooks & Dunn – The Last Rodeo.” The event, which will include a performance by McEntire, will be taped April 19 to air at a later date on CBS.

During the concert special, Kix Brooks and Ronnie Dunn will receive the Academy’s Milestone Award in recognition of their 20-year record-breaking career; the duo holds the record for the most wins in the Academy’s history with 26 awards in total, including three Entertainer of the Year Awards.

Joining Brooks & Dunn and McEntire at the concert taping will be Kenny Chesney, Rascal Flatts, Carrie Underwood, Keith Urban and others to be announced soon.

Hacking Ticketmaster Gets You Arrested

Posted by admin On March - 2 - 2010

Wiseguy Tickets is accused of online hack to buy millions of tickets for resale

By Star-Ledger Staff
March 01, 2010, 9:55PM

ticket-buying-conspiracy-wiseguy.JPGAmanda Brown/The Star-LedgerJoel Stevenson (right) comes out of the Federal Courthouse in Newark with his attorney John Yauck (left). Stevenson and three others who are part of Wiseguy Tickets Inc. have been indicted for allegedly defrauding and hacking ticket vendors.
Fans have long suspected the game was rigged against them when it came to buying the best seats to big concerts and ball games. They just didn’t know how. Tickets to Yankees playoff games, the Rose Bowl and rock concerts vanished within seconds of going on sale only to turn up on websites like StubHub and eBay, where fans must pay double or triple the original value.

The U.S. Attorney’s office in Newark unveiled a 43-count indictment today that said, basically, the fans were right all along.

The document outlines a massive ticket-buying conspiracy run by four computer savvy officials of a Nevada company, Wiseguy Tickets Inc. Using software to create an army of online drones, the firm allegedly muscled out legions of fans trying to buy tickets for shows including Bruce Springsteen, Barbra Streisand and Miley Cyrus. It all happened at lightning speed. And it brought millions in profit to Wiseguys, authorities said.

The Ticketmaster sales controversy


“These defendants tried to put themselves at the head of the line to get as many premium seats as possible,” U.S. Attorney Paul J. Fishman said.

Entertainment industry officials said they were astounded by the scope and audacity of the alleged fraud. Between 2002 and 2009, Wiseguys sold more than 1.5 million tickets nationwide, earning upwards of $25 million in profits, authorities said. The venues stretched from East Rutherford to Los Angeles. And the tickets were always for the best seats in the house: including Broadway productions of “The Producers” and “Wicked,” and tapings of the television show “Dancing with the Stars.”

For fans, it meant having to pay handsomely for good seats, authorities said. Wiseguys allegedly sold their tickets at a steep mark-up to brokers, who in turn sold them at an even steeper price to fans, according to the 60-page indictment. “Ultimately, we think this crime was committed out of greed,” said Erez Liebermann, an assistant U.S. attorney.

A lawyer for one of the men, Wiseguys founder and co-owner Kenneth Lowson, said the company offered a service that is the modern-day equivalent of sleeping out all night outside box offices to buy tickets for a hot concert. “And the feds have decided to criminalize that,” said the attorney, Mark Rush.

ticket-hacking.JPGView full sizeToday’s indictment follows a series of state and federal investigations sparked, in part, by frustrated fans. U.S. Rep. Bill Pascrell (D-N.J.) has introduced legislation to tighten regulations for online ticket sales and said he was pleased that Wiseguys was charged. But the congressman said he doubted the firm acted alone. “There’s a much bigger conspiracy here.” Pascrell said. “The regular fan doesn’t have a chance.”

Fans have long blamed Ticketmaster — now called Live Nation Entertainment — for online ticket-buying headaches. But Fishman today said the company had logged formal legal complaints about Wiseguys’ tactics and was essentially a victim of the alleged scheme. Company officials did not return calls seeking comment.

To execute their alleged scheme, authorities say Wiseguys cracked the security systems that ticket sellers use to block online attacks. The backbone of those systems is often a series of misshapen letters and numbers that ticket buyers must retype before making a purchase. Those distorted characters — called “captchas” — essentially force attackers to decipher images readable by humans, but supposedly not computers.

But with help from a computer programmer in Bulgaria, Wiseguys created a far-flung computer network that could read and retype those squiggly letters, authorities said. The instant tickets went on sale, Wiseguys flooded the websites of Ticketmaster and other companies with automated programs that impersonated individual buyers and scooped up every good seat faster than the click of a mouse, authorities said.

Kirsch and three others have been indicted for allegedly defrauding and hacking ticket vendors.For a July 2008 Bruce Springsteen show at Giants Stadium, Wiseguys managed to land half of the 440 floor tickets closest to the stage.

To make it appear the tickets were bought by individual fans — and not en-mass by a middleman — Wiseguys tried to amass 100,000 Internet addresses and hundreds of fake emails. They also collected reams of credit card numbers from brokers that later sold the tickets to fans. Fishman declined to say today whether those brokers would face charges, too.

Three of the four California men named in the indictment surrendered to the FBI today. Lowson was ordered held by U.S. Magistrate Judge Michael Shipp pending a bail hearing. His partner, Kristofer Kirsch, 37, was released on $1 million bail. An employee Joel Stevenson, 37, was released on $500,000 bail.

Lawyers for the men said they would plead not guilty at an arraignment later this week. They are charged with conspiracy, wire fraud and computer crimes. If convicted, they face up to 20 years in prison, said Seth Kosto, an assistant U.S. attorney. A fourth man, Faisal Nahdi, 36, is in Indonesia and expected to surrendered, authorities said.

“The allegations in this indictment represent a scheme orchestrated through technology to cheat the public and circumvent fair business practices in the entertainment industry,” said Edward Kahrer, an assistant special agent in charge of the FBI’s Newark office

Devil Wears Prada Focusing on New Material

Posted by admin On February - 23 - 2010

 The Devil Wears Prada focuses on new material

SOURCE: livedaily.com

Currently supporting Killswitch Engage on the road, The Devil Wears Prada [ tickets ] is vowing to change up the set list a bit from its previous jaunt.

“We are trying to mix it up because we just did the ‘Napalm and Noise Tour,’” said lead singer Mike Hranica via telephone from an Ohio Walmart where he was stocking up on goods for the tour. “It didn’t go to the same cities as this Killswitch tour. We want it to be a little different than that.

“It’s looking like we’re playing one song that we haven’t played off of [2007's] ‘Plagues’ in a year and a song we’ve never played live before. At the same time, we also have a 40-minute set. So we’re trying to pack stuff in and trying not to make the tour all new stuff. We’re pretty heavily weighted, as far as, like, playing new stuff, because it’s what we’re most proud of and, musically, what we’re most content with. It is a lot of new stuff, but we have three older songs.”

While focusing on its latest album, “With Roots Above and Branches Below,” Hranica explained that his band is catering the set toward Killswitch Engage fans.

“We did try to keep it in mind, as far as Killswitch and what a Killswitch fan would like to see,” he said. “I’d say just to expect The Devil Wears Prada like you usually would, but hopefully nothing like, ‘Oh I’ve seen this band do this exact same set list.’ It’s a little bit different than what we’ve been doing since Warped Tour. A lot of fans will come out to our shows a handful of times per year. Obviously, it can get old, and we don’t want it to get old; we want to try to be a little bit different each time.”

Recently, the Ohio-based band filmed a video for the single “Assistant to the Regional Manager,” a decision that was based partially on fans’ desires.

“We really didn’t know what we wanted to pick [for a single],” Hranica said. “Our label and manager thought ‘Dez Moines’ would be a good pick. It was the first song we released on iTunes. It’s either on ‘Guitar Hero’ or ‘Rock Band.’ I always get it confused. It’s popular on Internet websites. We decided to do a poll on the Internet for fans to pick out what song for us to do. It was really, really close between ‘Assistant’ and ‘Gimme Half.’

“When we did the poll, we didn’t want it to be cut and dry. ‘This is what they voted. This is what we do.’ It was like we wanted to do it to see if fans were like, ‘Do this one. Do this one.’ ‘Assistant’ and ‘Gimme Half’ were tied and it made it tough. But we decided on ‘Assistant.’ I think, though, that ‘Gimme Half’ is still all our favorite song. But ‘Assistant,’ from a pros-and-cons perspective, is a good song for a video.”

Hranica explained that the video–produced by Danny Yourd and directed by Steve Hoover for Endeavor Media, who also created the band’s first two music clips–will be controversial.

“For this video, basically, the treatment was something that no one would expect from us,” he said. “Our first three videos were all pretty similar and along the same lines. That sucks. You don’t want to do that. Basically, when we went to Endeavor, who we worked with twice before, we said we wanted something almost controversial out there. Like, ‘Wow. I really didn’t see that coming.’ With that in mind, it should be sweet. The whole idea is for it to be unexpected. That even means we don’t know what to expect. It’s awesome.”

Besides filming the video, The Devil Wears Prada is keeping busy in 2010 by recording new music and touring.

“We’re thinking about doing a concept EP,” Hranica said. “We haven’t told anybody what it’s actually about. It’s a secret. We’re going to record it, god willing, after Killswitch. Then we’re getting a summer tour together right now. After that it’s all looking pretty open. We may write and record a full length. That’s also still not confirmed. We may spend some time overseas in the UK and Europe. We also have 11 days in South America, which is a first for us. Those should be fun shows. I always hear that the shows down there are really crazy. I’m hoping for successful, but I guess I have high expectations. I hear when bands do go down there they love it.”
