Rolling Stones Stir Up Excitement with New Album and UK Tour!
SHOCKING NEWS: The Rolling Stones Are Back with a Bang!
In a move that's left fans going wild, the legendary rock band has been secretly recording their 25th studio album in West London's Metropolis Studios since April! Sources close to the band have revealed that Sir Mick Jagger, Keith Richards (both 81 and still rocking!), Ronnie Wood (78 and looking sharp!), and drummer Steve Jordan have been busy laying down 13 brand-new tracks.
But what's even more thrilling is that these music icons are in talks with their record label about a release date for the album. We can't wait to get our hands on it! After all, their last original work, Hackney Diamonds (2023), shot straight to No1 and got everyone talking!
The band has been working tirelessly behind the scenes with producer Andrew Watt, who helped them create the magic on their previous album. And let's not forget that they've also got a huge European tour planned for this summer! They'll be hitting the UK, Barcelona, Rome, Amsterdam, and Paris, making sure to bring their unique brand of rock 'n' roll to every corner of Europe.
But here's the juicy part: their US tour was initially set for this summer, but promoters just couldn't make it happen. Guess we can blame that on logistics! Still, the Stones are ready to get back out on stage and perform for their adoring fans. After all, as one insider revealed, "Mick, Keith, and Ronnie can't wait to bring the show to UK audiences... They've been planning it for months and are itching to get back out on the road and do what they do best – which is perform."
It's no secret that these three have a combined age of 239 (yes, you read that right!), but they're not showing any signs of slowing down. Far from it! They've got a reputation for delivering spectacular performances, and we can't wait to see what's in store this time around.
The Numbers Are In: The Rolling Stones Crush It on Tour
Their Hackney Diamonds tour has been making waves globally, with fans snatching up tickets at an incredible pace. And the numbers are staggering! According to Pollstar's annual Voice of Live year-end review (which checks out worldwide shows over the past 12 months), the band took home a whopping £235 million in total – that's more than double what previous record holder Elton John earned from his Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour!
And here's an interesting fact: The Rolling Stones charged an average of £250 per ticket, while Taylor Swift (who came in second on Pollstar's list) charged £180. Talk about price difference! Meanwhile, Coldplay took home a respectable £6,186,482 per concert from their Music of the Spheres tour.
Madonna Takes Home the Prize: But Not by Much
While Madonna raked it in with an estimated $14 million per show (around £11.5m) during her global 2023 Re-Invention tour, The Rolling Stones managed to pull in an astonishing £10,345,659 per night from their sold-out shows! That's a whopping 90% more than the Queen of Pop!
Of course, this is all about the money, but let's not forget that these iconic artists have earned their right to bankroll themselves. After all, it's been over six decades since The Rolling Stones first burst onto the scene, and they're still rocking harder than ever!
