If there was any doubt about the economic impact of the Taylor Swift Eras tour in Australia then figures from NAB this morning put them to bed, Australian Associated Press reports.

For businesses near the Melbourne Cricket Ground, where Swift performed, accommodation spending more than tripled, up 238%, while restaurants doubled their take.

Bars and pubs could also brag about raking in dollars, with their take up 146%.

Overall, an estimated $86m was spent on accommodation, hospitality and tourism, according to NAB.

She broke a record at the grammys for the first artist to win best album four years in a row. I can't wait for her new album in April.

A lined yellow legal pad was at the center of a New York City criminal trial on Wednesday, in which three men are accused of stealing handwritten lyrics to The Eagles’ “Hotel California” and other hits.

Horowitz, a rare-book seller who has brokered deals to place major archives at institutions, bought the Eagles lyrics drafts from Sanders for $50,000 in 2005.

Horowitz later sold them for $65,000 to Inciardi, who was then a rock Hall of Fame curator, and Kosinski, who owns a rock memorabilia auction site.

After Kosinski’s site offered four pages of the “Hotel California” lyrics in 2012, Henley reported them stolen but ultimately bought them for $8,500. After more sheets from that song and “Life in the Fast Lane” went up for auction in 2014 and 2016, Henley refused to negotiate more buybacks and turned to authorities again, according to prosecutors and Azoff.

Defense lawyers say Henley gave Sanders the documents. The defense argues that the writer was the rightful owner when he sold them, and so were the defendants once they bought the pages.

A ceiling is above where one is.

No style of music is 'above one' to any sensible person.

'Boundary crossing' is more appropriate.

But that takes a bit of thought, and you prefer clichés.

Now get back to fuxing up the 'Americans Getting Shot' thread, nutbar.

Nope

What Does It Mean to Break the Glass Ceiling?

Breaking the glass ceiling means overcoming the barriers set to prevent access to advancement. Breaking the glass ceiling also includes removing barriers for others experiencing the same struggles.
