tour

Dire Straits made music history, and great music while they were together. Since that time the band has not been performing. Mark Knopfler has moved on to other things. The rest of the band has been growing weary and wanting to do something. Maybe forge farther in into the future and add to their legacy.

The Stones have uploaded a photo with the titles of 22 songs written on it to their official Twitter account. The band is rehearsing in Europe right now for their upcoming four-date tour, and it's a list of songs they’re rehearsing. Here’s the Stones playlist along with the songs I'd swap to substitute. I've highlighted my picks (swaps) in black. Let me know what you think.

Technically, he’s a little late, but Peter Gabriel‘s fans probably don’t mind at all. On June 29, Gabriel will launch his ‘Back to Front’ tour, marking the belated 25th anniversary of his superstar-making fifth solo album, 1986′s ‘So.’

Fleetwood Mac guitarist Lindsay Buckingham has announced 15 tour dates across the west coast in support of his new ‘Seeds We Sow’ album. The run of dates will begin on May 3, and will be a one-man show.

2011 found Sting in a retrospective mood, celebrating both his 60th birthday and 25 years as a solo artist. Early indications are that he will continue to follow that same path this year with summer tour dates spotlighting hits from his solo career and the Police.

Summer’s here and the time is right, for rocking in the streets… or at least in an appropriate venue of some sort. A cavalcade of rockers, from Van Halen to the Steve Miller Band and Crosby, Stills and Nash, are heading out on the road to help you enjoy the nice weather and make you forget about all your worries for at least one night...

Rev up that big ol’ jet airliner — the Steve Miller Band are back on the road. The tour, which will take the group through 10 countries in seven months, kicks off May 20th at the Doheny Blues Festival in California and winds down in Vienna, Austria on November 4th.

Fifty two. That’s not their average age, but the amount of dates that Crosby, Stills and Nash have scheduled for their upcoming summer tour.

Kiss and Motley Crue will team up for a formidable tour this summer, and based on what Crue singer Vince Neil is saying about the joint production, their respective road crews are going to have their hands full.

A retrospective look at Andy Warhols' artwork will tour five Asian cities over the next three years. The exhibit will be the pop art icon's largest ever in Asia. It will include over 300 paintings, photographs, screen prints, drawings and sculptures.

The Rolling Stones will celebrate their 50th anniversary this year, and talk of a big tour to commemorate the occasion has been running wild for quite a while now. Well, just in case this happens, a group of fans already has a list of demands about changes they want made on any future Stones tours.

Time will tell if we’ll still need her when she’s 64, but last month, Taylor Swift was the biggest concert draw in the land — selling even more tickets than Paul McCartney. According to numbers released by the ticketing service TicketsNow, Swift accounted for an amazing six percent of system-wide sales, good enough to place her sixth on the all-agency list of events for the month.
