coldplay_is_louve. Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Wow. 366 days. At least there's a date! EDIT: And Interpol's not up as the opener for us anymore. As you can tell by my avi and sig, I'd have a heart attack if it was Snow Patrol. :wacky::P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

busybeeburns Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 U2's £85m makes them world's biggest earning band of 2010 U2 have been named the highest-earning music act of 2010 by Forbes magazine. The band earned £84.9m in the last 12 months to take the title. Heavy metal rockers AC/DC were second with earnings of £74.5m – the band’s Black Ice tour was the highest grossing tour in the world in the first six months of 2010. Beyonce was the highest paid female, though Forbes reports that more than half the Halo singer’s £56.8m earnings came from endorsement deals with companies such as L’Oreal and Nintendo. Beyonce’s husband Jay-Z ranked sixth with earnings of just over £41m. Others in the Forbes’ Top Earning Musicians of 2010 list included Bruce Springsteen, Britney Spears and Madonna. Lady GaGa made her first appearance on the annual list, raking in over £40.5m for her 106-date Fame Ball and Monster Ball world tours, but on the whole the list was crammed with established artists who have been around for well over a decade. The only Brits in the top 10 were Coldplay, at joint 10th place with Black Eyed Peas – both bands earned £31.3 million in the last year. In other U2 news, the band have confirmed they will reschedule tour dates they cancelled when Bono hurt his back earlier this year, and are keen to have another crack at Glastonbury. "I'm going to be fighting fit next summer in the US (and) looking forward to this summer in Europe,” the frontman said. “I'm ready, rebuilt by German engineering,” he told E Online. “Better design, I'm told. I'm very well. I can sit. I can stand. I can move around a bit. Feeling strong, feeling confident, know what I'm saying?" Forbes’ Top Earning Musicians of 2010: 1. U2 - £84.9m 2. AC/DC - £74.5m 3. Beyonce - £56.8m 4. Bruce Springsteen - £45.7m 5. Britney Spears - £41.8m 6. Jay-Z - £41.1m 7. Lady GaGa - £40.5m 8. Madonna - £37.9m 9. Kenny Chesney - £32.6m = 10. Black Eyed Peas - £31.3m = 10. Coldplay - £31.3m =10. Toby Keith - £31.3m http://www.mtv.co.uk/artists/u2/news/230871-u2-is-world-s-richest-band (& various) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bjaiken Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 Last year wasn't a big touring year for a lot of rock acts. I didn't see many shows for that reason. Edit: On second thought, I guess it wasn't that bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldplay_is_louve. Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 ^^But it wasn't as busy as usual. :tongue: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjaiken Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 Yeah, I was just going from memory. Usually I see a show or two per month, but I think I only went to 6 or 7 shows last year in total. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjaiken Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 I've decided I'm turning in my extra tickets and getting my money back. I will hold on to my "cheap seats" for a worse case scenario. I will try to get better tickets when they go on sale again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denise Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 Bump They're setting up the claw in Turin and the band should arrive tomorrow to start rehearing, it seems someone also found out where they're gonna stay :D All the pictures here - 12 days till I see them standing right on that field :bomb: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Rose Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 I've heard that the football had to be shifted to another venue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denise Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 I think I've read it in the u2 italian forum, it must be some Juventus match, but it was already planned that they were playing somewhere else where they can also attract more people. The stadium is property of the Municipality so they decided what to do with it and I guess it's pretty clear that U2 is bringing them a lot more money :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coldplay_is_louve. Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 ^^I'm guessing he'll be extra excited and bouncy, even if he's in pain. I'm sure right now he's dying to get out there. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
