  • Mayday, Asia's Top Rock Band, Announce Their North
    MAYDAY, ASIA’S TOP ROCK BAND, ANNOUNCE THEIR NORTH AMERICAN TOUR - Headlining Tour Kicks Off on Nov. 8, 2017 in Vancouver, BC – LOS ANGELES (May 31, 2017) – Mayday, Asia’s top rock band that hails from Taiwan, announced their return to North America today. Promoted exclusively by Live Nation, MAYDAY [LIFE] NORTH AMERICAN TOUR will begin in Vancouver on November 8th, 2017 and will span across 7 cities, including stops at Anaheim’s Honda Center and Brooklyn’s Barclays Center. A complete list of tour dates is below, and ticketing information will be announced at a later date. Mayday’s [LIFE] WORLD TOUR, the band’s 10th large-scale tour, will include a total of over 100 shows worldwide. The tour kicked off in March 2017 with four sold-out shows at The National Stadium in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, and drew a crowd of over 200,000 fans. Last week the band completed 10 consecutive sold out shows at Hong Kong Coliseum rocking to over 100,000 fans. The [LIFE] tour is a spectacular performance with impressive production designed by world-renowned Creative Director LeRoy Bennett of Seven Design Works, who has worked with the likes of Paul McCartney, Lady Gaga, Maroon 5, Bruno Mars, and more. The record-breaking quintet recently celebrated their 20th anniversary in March 2017 with an outdoor concert in Taipei and worldwide live stream of the show.

  • The Moody Blues Tour / Set List Project - Updated April 9, 2006
    The Moody Blues Tour / Set List Project - updated April 9, 2006 compiled by Linda Bangert Please send any additions or corrections to Linda Bangert ([email protected]) and notice of any broken links to Neil Ottenstein ([email protected]). This listing of tour dates, set lists, opening acts, additional musicians was derived from many sources, as noted on each file. Of particular help were "Higher and Higher" magazine and their website at www.moodies- magazine.com and the Moody Blues Official Fan Club (OFC) Newsletters. For a complete listing of people who contributed, click here. Particular thanks go to Neil Ottenstein, who hosts these pages, and to Bob Hardy, who helped me get these pages converted to html. One-off live performances, either of the band as a whole or of individual members, are not included in this listing, but generally can be found in the Moody Blues FAQ in Section 8.7 - What guest appearances have the band members made on albums, television, concerts, music videos or print media? under the sub-headings of "Visual Appearances" or "Charity Appearances". The current version of the FAQ can be found at www.toadmail.com/~notten/FAQ-TOC.htm I've construed "additional musicians" to be those who played on stage in addition to the members of the Moody Blues. Although Patrick Moraz was legally determined to be a contract player, and not a member of the Moody Blues, I have omitted him from the listing of additional musicians for brevity. Moraz toured with the Moody Blues from 1978 through 1990. From 1965-1966 The Moody Blues were Denny Laine, Clint Warwick, Mike Pinder, Ray Thomas and Graeme Edge, although Warwick left the band sometime in 1966 and was briefly replaced with Rod Clarke.

Research subjects are audiences who have participated in the Mayday concerts. Mall-intercepts method with intentional sampling is used and questionnaires were distributed at the “Super Slippa– part 9” and “The Great Nobody” of 831 rock band in 2018 at the Taipei Arena. 422 valid questionnaires were returned from the 469 distributed. Data were analyzed using the statistical software SPSS19.0 and it was found that: 1. Experience value has a significant positive impact on celebrity endorsements; 2. Experience value has a significant positive impact on brand resonance. 3. Celebrity endorsements have a significant positive impact on brand resonance; 4. Celebrity endorsements have a partial intermediary effect between experience value and brand resonance, which proves that P-O-X is in a balanced state.
