Pink Floyd’s Roger Waters resurrecting The Wall
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Artist News, Concerts / Tours, Rock,
Pink Floyd founding member Roger Waters is taking The Wall back on tour.
The former bassist in the psychedelic rock band has previously staged the band’s show - in which the album The Wall is performed in its entirety while a physical wall is built between the band and the audience - 31 times since it was recorded in 1979, but is now about to embark upon a huge North American tour in support of the album’s 30th anniversary.
“30 Years ago when I wrote The Wall I was a frightened young man,” Waters told Spinner. “Well, not that young - I was 36 years old. It took me a long time to get over my fears. Anyway, in the intervening years it has occurred to me that maybe the story of my fear and loss with its concomitant inevitable residue of ridicule, shame and punishment, provides an allegory for broader concerns: Nationalism, racism, sexism, religion, whatever! All these issues and ‘isms are driven by the same fears that drove my young life.”

Whitney Houston Denies Drug Use Rumors
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Artist News, Concerts / Tours, Gossip, R&B / Soul,
Whitney Houston has hit back at “ridiculous” rumors she was hospitalized because of drug use.
The “Million Dollar Bill” singer was forced to postpone four shows on the European leg of her world tour this week - when she was admitted to hospital in Paris, France, with an upper respiratory infection - but has denied claims she has relapsed.
Whitney - who was discharged on Wednesday - said: “I’m feeling great. I’m just ready to move on and continue my world tour.”
Asked about drug use speculation, she replied: “Ridiculous. At this point, I just don’t respond. I don’t even read it.”

Lady Gaga Explains Passing Out During New Zealand Concert
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Artist News, Concerts / Tours, Gossip, Performances, Videos, Pop,
Although many speculated high temperatures were responsible for Lady Gaga‘s recent performance in Auckland, New Zealand, the singer has since set the record straight.
In an interview with an Australian radio station, the 23-year-old explained that simple exhaustion was what caused her to nearly collapse during that March 13 concert.
“I was so jetlagged, I got in the night before and the jetlag just really caught up with me. I passed out about three times on stage that night but I got myself to the floor,” she recalled.

Marie Osmond Cancels More Vegas Shows
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Artist News, Concerts / Tours,
Despite her best efforts to keep the show going, Marie Osmond has opted to take another much-needed break.
It was announced today that Donny and Marie’s show in Vegas will be canceled until March 23. This decision comes approximately a week after the two resumed their Flamingo act and almost three weeks after Marie’s 18-year-old son, Michael Blosil, committed suicide.
During their March 9 return performance, Marie spoke to the audience about Brian. “The way Osmonds survive is we keep singing. That’s what we want to do tonight. I know my son would want that and this show is for him,” she said.
Unfortunately, the grieving mother decided she needed to spend more time with family. “She’s still processing everything and it’s really rough on her,” rep Alan Nierob explained.

Donny and Marie Osmond to Resume Vegas Show
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Artist News, Concerts / Tours,
Las Vegas performers Donny and Marie Osmond have elected to resume their show less than two weeks after a family tragedy.
On Friday, February 26, Marie’s 18-year old son jumped to his death from his apartment building in Los Angeles. Michael Blosil, one of Marie’s eight children, cited depression as his reason in a suicide note.
Since that time, the entertainers’ program at the Flamingo hotel has been on hold. But the popular show will start again on Tuesday, one day after Brian is laid to rest in Utah.
To help make up for the missed performances, the brother-sister team has added five more dates between April 13-17.

Anticipate More Blur Performances
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Artist News, Concerts / Tours, Gossip, Performances, Reunions, Rumors, Rock,
Blur drummer Dave Rowntree said it’s likely the band will perform again given the success of last summer’s gigs.
When asked if they would be the last shows, he said: “I hope not. We’ve never said anything like that, that would be a crazy thing to say. I’m sure we’ll play together again, why wouldn’t we.”
“It was great, the sun was shining, I was out with my mates on the road just like the old days,” Dave said about their recent performances. “I’d die a bitter man had I not been able to play in front of hundreds of thousands of people! I don’t know why, maybe that makes me weird, maybe that’s quite selfish of me but I would.”
Rowntree also told Absolute Radio that he does not listen to the band’s old music. “Why would I do that? I listen to new music. No you don’t revisit stuff like that unless you have to do you?” he said.
