Photo: Getty Images Rumor has it Madonna may be back on stage sooner than we thought. The singer, who recently wrapped up her Sticky and Sweet world tour, is reportedly in talks to play the Glastonbury Festival in South West England later this spring. Industry insiders see the decision as an attempt to regain favor with fans in the UK after she split from Guy Richie and her latest single, "Miles Away," peaked at an embarrassing #39 on the charts -- her lowest ever.

MADONNA was officially the highest-earning touring artist of 2008, takig £193 million from her Sticky and Sweet showcase. The figures, released by music trade publication Pollstar, also confirm that the tour was the eighth highest grossing of all time in North America, easily beating second placed artist Celine Dion, who amassed £162 million from her shows. The Sticky And Sweet tour was based around Madonna’s Hard Candy album and featured a Ukrainian gypsy band, a vintage racing car and a “viScottish hoteliers reporting influx of European visitors for Hogmanay
Hoteliers in Scotland’s two largest cities are seeing a significant influx of visitors from the continent for the Scottish New Year celebrations, and are saying that the numbers are at least partly driven by a strong euro. With fewer than 48 hours before the festivities begin, all passes that were available for Edinburgh’s New Year’s street party have been spoken for. Now the only way to enjoy the celebrations in the capital is to buy a ticket for one of the main events. Tickets for a HogmanaWant a CD With That T?Fashion Brands Storm the Music Biz
The symbiotic relationship between fashion and rock 'n' roll dates back to the beginning of time-- or at least far back enough for people to care about who wore what onstage. In this era of New Media it's only natural then that small bands (up and coming) are getting boosts from some of the biggest names in apparel industry. Whether these clothing brands function as actual record labels complete with licensing deals, in-house radio stations or user driven-contests, the success of these collaborGot Jesus?

You can tell from her stories, that she has fun and loving friendship with Jesus, rather than experienced a one-off encounter with him. 1. I really wanted to go to the LionWink Bingo Whats New

Behind it is the west wall of the great Abbey Church. Above that can be seen the 1,912 metre (6,273 feet) high summit of Mont Ventoux.

Do audiences outside Britain stand for the "Hallelujah” chorus in Handel's Messiah? I assume not, as the tradition is said to originate from our King George II once standing for this number, possibly to alleviate his gout. The Britten Sinfonia and Polyphony are very models of modern performing ensembles. At last night's Norwich Messiah there was not a tuxedo in sight. But still conductor Stephen Layton gestured expansively for the audience to stand for the words 'Hallelujah, for the Lord God OmComment on Smaller News for Saturday, 12/13!

Appearing in February 2006, Songbird is five years younger than Apple’s iTunes, and does not yet match it feature for feature. iPod support, album artwork, podcast support and stability are considered beta features

I knew that Russell Hastings was doing a fantastic job of lead vocals and guitar, and having Dave Moore as the second guitarist and keyboard player added to the sound. |
