STONES TOUR RUMOUR

The next tour by the Rolling Stones has sparked a bidding war between promoter heavyweights Live Nation and AEG, if rumours are to be believed. Several rumours emerged over the weekend that the Stones were lining up a farewell 50th Anniversary tour. It turns out this was, according to a reliable source close to the band, nonsense ("No, they are not retiring" was the response). However, it does seem that there may be some truth to the touring part of the story and according to a report in Music Week there is a potential bidding war emerging between the world’s two biggest tour promoters. Live Nation have produced the band’s last few tours, but according to Music Week, AEG are looking to bid for the rights to promote the tour worldwide. The last Stones tour remains the highest grossing tour of all time, with an estimated $558m in tour revenue.

MY OLD JOANNA!

A piano used on a string of Beatles hits and on Pink Floyd's classic album The Dark Side of the Moon is set to sell for more than $225,000 at auction. The instrument, played on Fab Four tracks including "Paperback Writer," "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da" and "Tomorrow Never Knows," was a fixture at London's Abbey Road studios during the 1960s. It was also utilized by Pink Floyd during recording sessions for their multi-platinum 1973 concept album. The Challen upright piano was retired in 1980 and is being put up for sale by its current owner at auctioneers Bonhams in West Sussex, England next month.


AND FINALLY.... 

Ozzy Osbourne has made the sensational claim that he predicted Princess Diana’s death in 1997. He told the Sunday Times: “I remember when Princess Diana was still alive, I woke up one morning and said to my assistant, ‘You know what? Something very bad’s gonna happen to her’. And sure enough, days or weeks later, the tragedy in Paris happened. “But the fact is, if someone’s living their life at 300mph, you don’t have to be a clairvoyant to see what’s coming”.
