Why I'm not buying the new album

I doubt very much those huge bands like U2 or AC/DC will ever lose a singe dime... the scenery, stage, logistics... is way too expensive, but sure they make a good money out of it, otherwise they wouldn't go on tour, would they??? Besides, some of those tours are sponsered by some trademarks like Coke or whatsoever, so that sometimes the band already knows what they are going to earn even though they don't break even at all from the ticket sales....

U2 makes around 3 million a night. Don't tell me they loose money.

Speaking of U2, this Sunday you can watch their Pasadena Rose Bowl concert live, for free, on YouTube - the first time YouTube has ever broadcasted a live show in its entirety. More details here.

And tomorrow Wednesday, the presentation of Robbie Williams' latest album!! I love him, he's a real good entertainer and musician/songwriter

In my opinion and it's only that, I wait with baited breath for any artist I love to release new music and then devour it with pleasure. To me that's the number one thing. If then that artist decides to tour, then that's my bonus.

Do yourself a favour, buy the CD and enjoy it. If the BSO tour on it well then good luck to you because I just assume I won't get to see them play unless I go to Japan, which could always be an option if things fall into place.

The best of luck to you.

Regards,

René

Robbie Williams is a singing trainwreck that is extremely popular in the UK. He did a big band record in 2001, that's about the only reason I have heard of him. Stories of his drug and alcohol problems and his sex life are what he's known for as much if not more than his ability as a singer.

Hmmm....does he know Amy Winehouse?

I guess you are all wrong concerning Robbie.... the fact that he does drugs and all that shit doesnt meant he is not a good singer.

He loves jazz & swing and rock n roll music. If you have a look at a DVD called The Robbie Williams Show, you will see that all the decoration is based on Elvis 68 CBS, the Jailhouse Rock clip, etc.

He is a wonderful entertainer, a nice singer and even better song-writer...

I don't care about what he does in his private life, but when it comes to music, he is one of the kings of the whole damn world!
