Unfortunately, at the beginning of this week I was pretty ill, which prevented me from posting, but this did NOT prevent me from being excited about all the great musical news that has been happening this week...
Beyonce's tour (and her kick ass superbowl performance)
Who HASN'T been excited about this? Beyonce is an absolute goddess. Her performance at the superbowl was incredible, and now she's announced a 'Mrs. Carter tour'. While people have questioned the name of the tour (husband Jay-Z's real surname is Carter) and how it might inflict on her feminist credentials, she's still DOING A TOUR OMFG. Tickets go on sale on 23rd February and UK dates are late April - early May.
Fall Out Boy are back!
Some people refer to Fall Out Boy as a guilty pleasure. I don't understand what there is to feel guilty about. I shamelessly love Fall Out Boy and couldn't be more excited about their comeback, which brings me to...
...The Reading and Leeds Line Up Announcement!!
Yes! Fall Out Boy are on the bill, along with Foals, Jake Bugg, Bring Me The Horizon, but thats nothing really, compared to System of a Down!! I've been dying to see System of a Down live ever since I discovered them when I was 12 or 13. It will be insane. and of course, the headline announcement, Biffy Clyro. With their fifth album released, and the fact they totally deserve a headline spot, it's no surprise. I have a feeling this may be the best Reading fest yet.
Fidlar's album released!
Fidlar finally released their album, yay! I'm currently listening to it now, as I type. And so far, it's sounding pretty damn good.
Plus...Bestival Line Up.
Ok technically this was last week, but I still think it deserves an honourable mention. Another absolutely incredible festival line up!! This summer is set to be a good one!!
