EC doesn't perform a 2 hours show anymore. And don't forget the seated part playing on acoustic. I last witnessed him in 2015 and it was still enjoyable.

My 2 cents on the subject. From what I read from Keith own words he was able to keep on the guitar alone when Brian was not interested in guitar anymore but he admitted that afterward he was strong enough for that position and needed someone else. Still, the Mick Taylor years where difficult for Keith as it developped into a Keith becoming the rythm guitarist and Mick the solo player. An

It will be difficult to have more detailed figures than gross. Interestingly would to get the number of ticket sold by each artist. That would allow to get an average gross per ticket ratio and average attendance as well. Still the aim of the article is that the 40 top gross for UK artists are almost all over 40 years aged people.

This is UK focused, appart the Taylor Swift mention. Is it the same for the US\Canadian\German international top acts ? Already 10 years ago, or so, this was a matter for the Glastonbury organisator : they were failing to find new generation of acts to make the very big screen and have to rely on the old bands.

Sorry for being not that enthousiastic but seeing The Rolling Stones in relatively small venue is just a dream and then you witness one member high on pot or the other one drunk... I bough the Wiltern but the MSG gig was a far better performance music wise. So this time will be without me.

Taylor Swift may have broken a record previously owned by the Beatles such as the number of simultinaeous singles in the top ten - well actually she trusted the whole Billboard Hot 100's top ten a for a week.

I wonder how much popular David Gilmour really is now? I mean if you wanted to attend a Roger Waters show last time there were almost suffidcient capacity for anyboody that wanted to. But David Gilmour is another matter. He takes it safe by offering way less tickets than the number of people wanting to attend and making it geographically difficult. The RAH only run is somewhat a bad j

I have attended him at a better era and I have decided years ago that it was time for me to stop going to his shows. And he made it easier by not playing near from home. But I must admit I am pleasantly surprised that Clapton is still at that level now.

I remember attending a R&K show and one musician did play the Satisfaction riff, then Bill told something like "no we are not playing this repertoire tonight" using a relaxed tone. Maybe it was an usual joke done everynight at htis same part of the show, I don't know. To me the R&K are more of a fun club band, letting Bill do what he likes without pressure. And as he ha
