FanSnap’s Most Popular Artists for March

Friday, April 3rd, 2009

The concert season continues strong with more new tour announcements every day.  March was a busy month for FanSnap.  In the midst of all the March Madness, which concert tickets did fans search for the most?  While the Jonas Brothers and Dave Matthews came on strong, you will recognize many of these fantastic artists from last month, with the ladies leading the way!

   1. Taylor Swift tickets

   2. Britney Spears tickets

   3. Jonas Brothers tickets

   4. Phish tickets

   5. Elton John tickets

   6. Coldplay tickets

   7. Kenny Chesney tickets

   8. Dave Matthews tickets

   9. Bruce Springsteen tickets

   10. Keith Urban tickets

I saw Bruce open the Working on a Dream tour in San Jose Wednesday night.  The Boss and his E Street Band were incredible as usual – 2 hours and 40 minutes worth.  I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again.  Go see a living legend while you have the chance!

Searching for Tickets: Ticketmaster/Live Nation

Monday, February 9th, 2009

Charles Knight was kind enough to ask us to author a guest post on his AltSearchEngines blog today.

Our opus starts, “Ticketmaster has been at the center of the news this past week both as a result of Bruce Springsteen’s open letter, and the rumored merger plans with Live Nation.  For those who haven’t been following the industry, or who wonder what all the fuss is about, a little background may be in order…”

The rest follows here .

Thanks, Charles!

The Boss Returns

Wednesday, January 28th, 2009

If you have never seen Bruce Springsteen live, you have missed out on one of life’s greatest fan pleasures.  After seeing the Boss perform three times starting with the “Born in the USA” tour, I can’t wait to go again!

I consider being part of the crowd singing Bruce’s “Thunder Road” with 20,000 people one of the most memorable experiences in my life as a fan, along with singing “Sweet Caroline” at a Red Sox (tickets) playoff game in Fenway, and chanting “Roll Tide Roll” during the chorus of Skynyrd’s “Sweet Home Alabama” at a Crimson Tide-Vols game in Tuscaloosa.

Don’t believe me?  Watch Bruce perform at the Super Bowl.  You  will believe.  Bruce and the famous E Street Band also just released their new album “Working on a Dream,” which I can not wait to hear live.  Unlike other artists, when Bruce says “here’s a little something from the new album,” fans do not stream for the restrooms!

Haven’t seen Bruce?  I call a fan foul.  Regret you never got to see Hendrix?  Freddy Mercury?  Don’t make the same mistake again.  Bruce is a living legend.  Fortunately, you now have the opportunity.  Here’s the just announced tour dates.  Check back often as ticket providers will be rapidly adding tickets in the next few days, and of course additional dates may be added.

Have fun, ‘cuz baby you were born to run!
