Bands you might be surprised who are still touring in 2014

Our advice- you might want to break down and finally buy a ticket this year…it really could be your last chance. 

Rolling Stones: Ok for this one you may need to also pick up a passport. Right now it looks like they are overseas…if you catch them though you will be able to catch most of the original cast. Well-known names Mick Jagger and Keith Richards are still rocking out and even though he wasn’t an original member, drummer Charley Watts joined the band early enough in the game that he is often considered an original himself.

ZZ Top: They're even making  new music! Check out their latest release….only a year old in 2013 “I Gotsta Get Paid”

KISSWITH  Def Leppard – we know it’s almost too good to be true. And…Since the majority of our readers and patrons are from the triangle… here you go- a direct link to get your tickets:







Chicago: They even have their own sound cloud on their blog to brush up on their songs before the big night:

#bestlongsongs for your work out, road trip or listening pleasure

We would have to guess- January and the summer are the two times a year when the gym is the most packed. January is catching people post News Year’s resolutions and summer holds more than enough wedding guest or dress attire and bikinis than we can count.  

With summer and wedding season in full swing- we wanted to provide a list of the some of the longest songs for your bridal or bikini body workouts. These tunes will last as long as you do…maybe longer. *Spoiler Alert*  Free Bird is NOT on the list. We had to dig deeper than that…

In no particular order:
·        Purple Rain-Prince And The Revolution (8m42s)
·        Station To Station-David Bowie (10m14s)
·        Too Long-Daft Punk, ' (10m00s)
·        Come Back-FooFighters (8m)
·        Estranged – "Guns N Roses 10m
·        Stairway to heaven-Led Zeppelin (8m)
·        Machine Gun-Jimi Hendrix, 12:36
·        Starless-King Crimson, 12:16
·        Echoes-Pink Floyd, 23:31
·        Achilles Last Stand-Led Zeppelin, 10:25
·        Voodoo Chile-Jimi Hendrix, 14:59
