Hugh Jackman Announces World Tour Performing Greatest Showman

Hugh Jackman has announced that the world tour performing monitors by The Greatest Showman, and it goes without saying — it’s definitely going to be the best show. 

The talented performer is taking to stages across the globe to bring to life what I believe is most likely one of the greatest films in recent years — though the strain ’s as he won’t even have all of his exceptional supporting cast around him in the one-man series.

I don’t even believe we have to fret though, Jackman can accomplish anything. He is, after all, the best showman.

The Australian revealed the news on Good Morning America, where he described the encounter as ‘a fantasy come true’.

As well as tracks from The Greatest Showman, Jackman will reprise some of his performing and stage characters by singing songs from Les Misérables, The Boy from Oz, along with Oklahoma.

While the 50-year-old will be the star of this series, he will be backed by a 26 piece orchestra as well as in his words, ‘around 30 singers and dancers’, so that there ’s no doubt it will be a spectacle to behold.

While there’s been no reference of Zac Efron or even Zendaya producing an appearance on stage, co-star Keala Settle, who played the Bearded Lady in The Greatest Showman, will be joining Jackman for performances and blowing audiences away with her amazing vocal chords.

I don’t even understand you, but I’t ever attempted and failed many times to mimic the second Settle smashes the point ‘THIS IS WHERE YOU WANNA BE’ in The Greatest Show.

The Wolverine celebrity has performed his one-man series on Broadway in addition to at places in Australia, yet this time he will be taking on more stages in America and Europe, along with now he ’s triumphed that no two shows will be the exact same.

Speaking on Good Morning America, he said:

I enjoy going to a concert in which I believe something happens that night, that night which could happen. I’m only going to have a celebration.

I guess true fans might have to attend as many shows as you can to actually see Jackman in all of his glory!

Chainsmokers Bring Millennials to Final Atlantic City Beach Concert, Officials Hope to Continue Live Nation Partnership

The Chainsmokers brought thousands of people to the Atlantic City beach on Sunday afternoon, which marked the last of six concerts produced by Live Nation in what was a three-year, $6 million deal with the Casino Reinvestment Development Authority (CRDA).

The 4:15 pm Sunday afternoon show was to culminate a star-packed concert weekend in Atlantic City, but after Demi Lovato’s Friday show was canceled due to the singer’s apparent overdose last week, The Chainsmokers were the biggest headliners in town.

Live Nation booked Cheat Codes, an electronic music DJ trio, in Lovato’s place, and made the concert a free event. Demi ticketholders were able to receive refunds or attend The Chainsmokers concert.

With perfect weather, the beach was packed on Sunday. Attendance estimates have not yet been released, but the show seemed to satisfy Live Nation’s contract with the CRDA that requires the concert organizer to book acts that draw 30,000 or more people.

Millennial Impact

Chainsmokers Tickets

The Chainsmokers attracted a demographic long-sought by Atlantic City casinos: the millennial.

Numerous studies have shown that the 18- to 34-year-old doesn’t enjoy slot machines nearly as much as their parents and grandparents. A report from YouGov, a research firm in London, said recently that nearly one in two millennials even find casinos depressing.

“Everyone seems really positive about that,” Live Nation Philadelphia President Geoff Gordon told the Press of Atlantic City about the show bringing in younger people. The millennials might not necessarily be rushing to the slot machines after the concert, but they spent money on food and beverages, lodging, and other entertainment.

“We’re looking at a longer-term promotion of the city as a resort and as a destination,” CRDA Executive Director Matt Doherty explained. “It’s an attempt to expand the market of people who come to Atlantic City with a non-gaming event. The more people that come, the more revenue generated.”

Continuing Partnership

With the openings of Hard Rock and Ocean Resort, Atlantic City needs more visitors, and lots of them, to support being a nine-casino town. With commercial casinos now in Maryland, Delaware, Pennsylvania, and New York, the necessity for east coasters to travel to New Jersey’s gambling hub to spin a slot machine are no longer.

Hard Rock and Ocean Resort are betting on entertainment and experiences as catalysts to return visitation to numbers experienced in decades prior.

The rock ‘n’ themed casino plans to host live entertainment nightly, and opened with A-listers Carrie Underwood and Pitbull. Ocean Resort welcomed celebrities Mark Wahlberg and Jamie Foxx during its debut festivities and hopes its Topgolf Swing Suite lounge, as well as its smoker-friendly casino area, will be enough to keep the resort busy.

The CRDA, the state agency tasked with investing in projects that benefit the city’s economy and development, says it hopes the summer beach concert series continues next year.

“I believe it will go forward,” Doherty stated. “There may be some alterations to the concerts … but I think it’s a beneficial relationship to advancing tourism in Atlantic City.”

Sir Elton John’s Three-Year Global Tour: Tickets & Pricing @blog.buytickets.com

 

download (1)

As promised here is part 2 of my Elton John blog.  I don’t know about you, but I just love Elton John’s music, his down to earth personality, he is a family man, and seems to be a best friend.  (Well that’s how I feel).

“This is the end.”  He’s not kidding.  “My priorities are in my life are now my children, my husband, and my family, I want to be home.”  Elton John claimed in 1977 to retire only returning 2 years later.  But this time after 300 scheduled performing dates over the next 3 years he will retire #exhausted.

Elton John’s  tour is big business

 Elton John’s tour is big business, which will sell around 4,947,824 tickets grossing $590,709,626.  There is one thing to say about Elton John, he is not shy about his ticket pricing.  It is said that he is not good on his numbers and $ reporting. Anyway, with farewell tour announcements, it does put a demand on concert ticket sales.  What a great retirement plan!

Elton John’s Aids Foundation

Elton John’s Aids Foundation is a nonprofit established in 1992 in the United States, and 1993 in the United Kingdom.  The foundation has raised over $200 million dollars to support HIV related programs in over fifty-five countries.  In 1993 the organization began hosting the annual Elton John Aids Foundation Academy Award Party.

Go to @blog.buytickets.com for all of #EltonJohn’s concert dates, times, and city’s 

 70 years old and still going strong

At 70 Elton is still going strong with his music, costumes, and spirit.  His love for life has been enhanced by his marriage to David Furnish.  David was born in 1962 in Toronto Canada.  He graduated from university in 1985 in business advertising.  After working in advertising with Ogilvy & Mather he transferred to London.  He then went into filmmaking, directing Elton John’s documentary “Tantrums & Tiaras” in 1997. David serves on the board for Elton John’s AIDS Charity and is a columnist for GQ.

Elton and David have known each other and dated for 24 years.  In May 2005 Elton popped the question at a dinner party.  In December of 2005, they entered into a civil partnership, taking place in Windsor.  They have two children, Zachary and Elijah, both by the same surrogate.  In 2014 Elton John and David Furnish were able to convert their civil partnership into marriage due to the new gay marriage legislation.  Their marriage was on their 9th anniversary on December 21st, 2014 in Windsor.
