What made the tour memorable for Beyoncé’s fans was that she made 2000 seats available at all the venues for a very affordable $20!

Beyoncé, of course, needs no introduction. She is a song writer, actress, dancer, choreographer, model, record producer, and video director – a great piece of talent rolled into one! Beyoncé has sold over 75 million records to date, with 50 million of these as the lead singer of Destiny’s Child.

American Idols LIVE! Tour 2009

A series of concerts were performed by the top 10 contestants who participated in the 8th season of American Idol 2009.

Paul McCartney Summer Tour

Paul McCartney started his summer concert tour in the United States on July 17 at the Citi Field stadium, NYC and ended the successful tour at Cowboys stadium, Dallas, on August 19.

Initially there was a lot of uncertainty about the tour but it has been successful as far as Paul McCartney’s fans are concerned. Citi Field replaced the Shea Stadium which was demolished. Shea was where Beatles first performed on their first visit to the United States way back in 1965!

The Tickets

Tickets for the great concerts in 2009 can be purchased directly from the venue of the performances. There is, however, no guarantee that tickets will be available by the time you reach the window!

Taylor Swift Tickets Resources A concert and tour news site with tips for locating great Taylor Swift tickets online.

The Eminem/Mariah Carey/Nick Cannon feud is heating up.

In a new song called “The Warning,” the rapper calls Mariah and her husband, “America’s Got Talent” host Nick Cannon, a slew of profanities and claims to have “pictures” of the singer.

“You probably think since it’s been so long, if I had something on you I woulda did it by now,” he raps on the leaked track, adding he has “enough dirt on you to murder you.” [via: MSN BC]

While Mariah and Nick Cannon continue to assert that “Obsessed” isn’t about Eminem, Slim Shady wastes no time being coy. So why is this “The Warning” and not “The Attack”? Because despite how damning the song is, Eminem hints there’s much more for Mariah to be scared of than just a diss track. “Enough dirt on you to murder you, this is what the fuck I do. Mariah, it ever occur to you that I still have pictures,” Em raps. In true Eminem fashion, Marshall Mathers deprecates himself while attacking Carey, telling stories of premature ejaculation, dry humping, “trying to stick two CD’s in the same spot” and other personal details you’d usually expect from an unauthorized biography. Nothing gets Eminem going quite like beef, and Shady is more sharp and on-point here than on some of Relapse. [more: Rolling Stone]

Now let’s watch a video about Eminem the Warning.

So what do you think about the Eminem the Warning

Tuesday’s memorial service was one of the most-watched and most-discussed live news events in recent history, with some analysts even calling it a milestone for media integration as fans gathered around TV sets, computers and smartphones and traded information on Facebook and other social-media services.

An average of 31.1 million TV viewers watched the memorial service, according to the Nielsen Company. The ceremony, which featured performances and tributes from Stevie Wonder, Brooke Shields and other celebrities, was carried live from approximately 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. on 19 networks, including the major broadcast and cable-news outlets.

In Jackson’s case, however, the TV numbers reveal only part of the picture. The pop star’s memorial spiked huge waves of online traffic as many viewers turned to their computers to watch the ceremony. MSNBC.com set a new record Tuesday for total online video streams (19 million), while the results for CNN (10.5 million) and Fox News (3.4 million) were exceeded only on Inauguration Day last January. At its peak, CNN.com logged 781,000 concurrent live streams; FoxNews.com peaked during the memorial with 677,000. [via: Los Angeles Times]

Now what Bruce Springsteen fans are concerning is Bruce Springsteen Concert Tour 2009. Yeah, needless to say, this is the big event in entertainment industry this year, just like Taylor Swift Fearless Tour 2009, people are eager to participate, me too. So let’s talk something about this today.

First, in case some of you guys are not very familiar with Bruce Springsteen, let’s learn a little more about him. Wikipedia introduces Bruce Springsteen like this:

Bruce Frederick Joseph Springsteen (born September 23, 1949), nicknamed “The Boss”, is an American songwriter, singer and musician. He records and tours with the E Street Band. Springsteen is widely known for his brand of heartland rock infused with pop hooks, poetic lyrics, and Americana sentiments centered on his native New Jersey.

Springsteen’s recordings have tended to alternate between commercially accessible rock albums and somber folk-oriented works. Much of his status stems from the concerts and marathon shows in which he and the E Street Band perform intense ballads, rousing anthems, and party rock and roll songs, amongst which he intersperses whimsical or deeply emotional stories.

His most famous albums, Born to Run and Born in the U.S.A., epitomize his penchant for finding grandeur in the struggles of daily life in America. He has gradually become identified with liberal politics. He is also noted for his support of various relief and rebuilding efforts in New Jersey and elsewhere, and for his response to the September 11th attacks, on which his album The Rising reflects.

He has earned numerous awards for his work, including nineteen Grammy Awards, two Golden Globes and an Academy Award, and continues to have a strong global fan base. He has sold more than 65 million albums in the United States and 120 million worldwide.

To learn more, you can visit Bruce Springsteen website Bruce Springsteen.net, you can also visit Bruce Springsteen Myspace. There are many cool information about him and his music. I visit it quite often.
