Monday Morning Music Headlines

Monday is always the least popular day of the week, so let’s put a smile on your face with a few music news headlines…

Who was the richest British rocker in 2016? Paul McCartney is worth nearly a $1 Billion Dollars (that’s with a B) while Adele, Brian May (Queen), the members of U2, Elton John, Mick Jagger and Andrew Lloyd-Webber are amongst the Top 20 in wealthiest Brits in 2016.

Hey if you have $56 million laying around you can give Sting a shout out and make an appointment to see his 15 Central Park West Penthouse, on the blocks as we speak. The two bought the abode a few years ago for nearly half that price.

On tour this summer will be Cheap Trick, REO Speedwagon, John Mayer, Chicago, Graham Nash, Don Henley, Styx and more.

In one of the most interesting trends in music, Cheap Trick is about to source the money needed for their new album called ‘We’re All Alright,’ with their ‘crowd sourcing’ coming online. Those that contribute will get access to early ticket sales, memorabilia, and more.
