This week, SPIN Magazine is celebrating its 25th anniversary as a qualified and popular music magazine. SPIN is a well established as a voice in the industry, and as their saying goes, the music they feature is truly “music for life”.
For the celebration, they are hosting five shows in the New York City Area, all of which can be seen live in HD online from SPIN’s website. So far this week, bands The Flaming Lips and The Smashing Pumpkins have played, and three bands are still on schedule to close out the SPIN’s lineup. Check out FanSnap to find the best available tickets to these upcoming New York City concerts.
Black Keys tickets and The National tickets are all classified as general admission to Terminal 5, where tickets can be found for as low as $58 on FanSnap. For Spiritualized tickets to Radio City Music Hall, find best valued tickets in Orchestra 600 for $38, which is 52% below the average price of similar tickets in this section.
Fans looking to catch The Eagles, M.I.A., Muse, Phish and The Flaming Lips all in one weekend should snap up their Austin City Limits Festival tickets now! In addition to these bands, other big names unveiled today include Norah Jones, The National, The Strokes, Spoon, Vampire Weekend, Band of Horses, Monster of Folk and Sonic Youth. Altogether the festival features 130 bands across eight stages October 8-10, 2010.
Along with the lineup, Austin City Limits festival just released a limited number of single day tickets. Those are likely to go fast, following the three-day ACL tickets which “sold out” at the box office last month in just 14 hours.
In its 9th year, the Austin City Limits Festival has become a favorite for music enthusiasts around the world. Last year’s ACL ranked No. 4 on Billboard’s top 10 list of the highest-grossing festivals of 2009.
Our favorite artists and bands are starting to announce their 2010 concert tour schedules. This promises to be a huge year for monster tours. In fact, concert tour announcements have gone from one or two a week to two and three a day. In addition to some of the biggest acts in the world — U2 tickets and Taylor Swift tickets topped our hot tickets list of 2009 — extending their 2009 tours into 2010, here are concert tours being announced this week.
Five For Fighting tickets and dates for a U.S. tour following up the band’s October release, “Slice,” which we think should have been called, “Slashing,” were also announced today.
The Eagles, yes, one of the biggest bands in history, announced more dates and stops on what is now just a few stops on the west coast for the band’s Long Road Out Of Eden tour. Fingers crossed that they announce a full blown tour very soon. Check out Eagles tickets for So. Cal., No. Cal., BC and Phoenix.
Jeff Beck tickets to his out headlining tour were announced earlier this week. Jeff Beck is currently on the road with Eric Clapton now and will continue his own tour in April. Eric Clapton will continue touring with Roger Daltrey and then Steve Winwood through the spring.
Kenny Chesney tickets to a few shows in Vegas were announced this week. We know there are a lot of Kenny Chesney fans out there wondering if Kenny will hit the road this summer. We’ll let you know. We’ll also look for Mr. You Had Me At Hello at the Super Bowl where he’s sure to be rooting on his buddy Payton Manning.
Harry Connick Jr. tickets to 12 dates in February that have the Jazz man crisscrossing the south were announced this week.
The Peter Gabriel tickets and dates announcement on Monday kick the week off with us singing “Sledge Hammer” and “In Your Eyes” and then debating which was the best Cameron Crowe movie.
