  • NOS Alive: Let There Be Rock!
    M-A-1713 0-04-17-0249-0 NOS Alive: Let there be Rock! Maio de 2017, depois de árduos meses de trabalho, Álvaro Covões, CEO da Everything is New (“EiN”), entra num táxi em Lisboa e na rádio, entre notícias, estado do trânsito e música ouve um anúncio dedicado ao NOS Alive, que se iria realizar entre 6 e 8 de julho no Passeio Marítimo de Algés, em Lisboa. Mas este não era um normal anúncio com o objetivo de vender bilhetes para o festival: era apenas um agradecimento a todos os espectadores que haviam, pela primeira vez em Portugal, esgotado a lotação total de um festival antes da sua abertura. “NOS Alive 2017: LOTAÇÃO ESGOTADA! Obrigado a todos aqueles que ajudaram a fazer deste um dos maiores festivais de sempre” O NOS Alive, que teve a sua primeira edição em 2007, rapidamente se tornou um dos mais cobiçados eventos do calendário de festivais europeu, atraindo grandes nomes da música bem como um número sem rival de espectadores estrangeiros no contexto dos festivais portugueses. A caminho da 11.ª edição, o NOS Alive tinha realizado um feito tão histórico quanto inédito ao esgotar a totalidade dos bilhetes dois meses antes de se ouvir o primeiro acorde no Passeio Marítimo de Algés. Mas este não era um trabalho realizado em algumas semanas ou meses: apesar de ainda não ter tido início a edição de 2017, já a de 2018 começava a ser planeada. Perante este sucesso, Álvaro Covões não conseguia deixar de começar a pensar no passo seguinte: como escalar a receita de sucesso do NOS Alive sem perder os seus elementos diferenciadores, de festival urbano, com uma experiência única e centrado no melhor cartaz? Qual o caminho a seguir? AESEinsight – Uso exclusivo para Alumni AESE #BusinessKnowledge Agosto/2021 Por outro lado, o NOS Alive representava uma parte de um plano de maior visão para a EiN: o de se tornar um player em todo o contexto turístico português.

    September / 2018 There’s 1 year left before Rock in Rio: organizers announce a day dedicated to metal – headlined by IRON MAIDEN along with The Scorpions, Megadeth and Sepultura in a night to remember The event has announced its official dates: September 27, 28 and 29, October 3, 4, 5 and 6 of 2019 in the City of Rock, at Barra da Tijuca. Rio de Janeiro, Sept 27, 2018 – Rock in Rio 2019 offers not only a night to remember, but also a historic event. After a metal-free festival at City of Rock in 2017, the Rock in Rio organizers are giving a special gift to the fans and announces, for 2019, a whole day dedicated to this musical genre. It will be a revival of the first edition in 1985, when the nights with these heavy metal bands brought over 300 thousand people to the event. Thirty-four years later, with the headliner Brits IRON MAIDEN, the Germans from Scorpions, the Americans from Megadeth and the Brazilians from Sepultura, Rock in Rio promises another memorable night on October 4th. These announcements marked the start of the one-year countdown to Rock in Rio 2019, that will take place on September 27, 28 and 29 and October 3, 4, 5 and 6 of 2019, in the City of Rock, at Barra da Tijuca (Parque Olímpico - Av. Salvador Allende). For Roberto Medina, president of Rock in Rio, announcing the whole line-up for the World Stage on the metal night at once is a way to honor this metal community that, in 2017, wasn’t represented.

    FROM BRAZIL TO THE WORLD Who are the Brazilian Voices Brazilian Voices is a female vocal ensemble engaged in musical performances as an instrument for the advancement of intercultural, educational, philanthropic and entertainment activities, with the purpose of creating a peaceful artistic movement with social responsibility to the local and global community. Five times award winner of the International Brazilian Press Awards, Brazilian Voices is composed of about fifty females who have been expanding Brazilian music in the United States, Brazil, Italy and Spain singing famous composers of Brazilian music. Brazilian Voices will immerse you in the beauty of the Brazilian culture with the educational program “From Brazil to the World”. Through a combination of informative presentations and live performances, the participants will learn in an interactive and interesting way about Brazilian rhythms and culture. Music allows all of us to develop a greater capacity for concentration, creative group work, and imagination, while fostering a greater sense of responsibility as well as more adaptive interpersonal involvement. Music also offers unique communication as it provides individuals with an alternative channel of interaction and participation with a wide range of abilities, from listening and active contribution to adept performance. With these objectives in mind, Brazilian Voices has developed this educational program that offers a broader understanding and greater appreciation of musical and cultural diversity. FROM BRAZIL TO THE WORLD What to Know About Brazil Discovered in 1500, Brazil was colonized by the Portuguese, but its population is very diverse, with many races and ethnic groups. Brazil declared its independence in 1822, now being a Federal Republic with a multi-party political system, holding democratic elections.

    LINKIN PARK'S "ONE MORE LIGHT" DEBUTS #1 BAND'S SIXTH #1 ALBUM ON BILLBOARD 200 NORTH AMERICAN LEG OF ONE MORE LIGHT WORLD TOUR KICKS OFF JULY 27TH Photo credit: James Minchin May 30, 2017 (Burbank, CA) - One More Light, the seventh studio album from rock outliers Linkin Park, debuts at #1, their sixth album with a #1 debut and the band's 10th top 10 album on the Billboard 200. The album launched with 111,000 equivalent units in the week ending May 25th. "Topping the chart for the sixth time, Linkin Park joins a small group of rock bands that have done the same. Just nine bands in total have scored at least six No.1 albums: The Beatles (with 19), The Rolling Stones (nine), Led Zeppelin and U2 (both with seven), and Bon Jovi, Dave Matthews Band, Eagles, Linkin Park and Metallica (all with six each)." - Billboard "Linkin Park are always pushing themselves and pushing us to break new fresh creative ground, and this album is certainly no exception," said Dan McCarroll, President, Warner Bros. Records. Linkin Park was everywhere during their album release week with a slew of buzz-worthy events. They kicked off the week with a pop-up performance in a New York subway on Good Morning America, then headed to LA to play the outdoor stage at Jimmy Kimmel Live!, where fans were treated to a seven-song set of new material and LP classics. The band then hit Vegas and hosted a One More Light worldwide listening party through all their social platforms, then headlined the sold-out opening night of CBS Radio's "SPF 2017." The week commenced with an Album Listening Party and a live performance at the iHeartRadio Theater in Burbank.

    Guide to the Brooklyn Theater Playbills and Programs Collection, 1875-1972 Brooklyn Public Library Grand Army Plaza Brooklyn, NY 11238 Contact: Brooklyn Collection Phone: 718.230.2762 Fax: 718.857.2245 Email: [email protected] www.brooklynpubliclibrary.org Processed by Lisa DeBoer, Lisa Castrogiovanni and Lisa Studier. Finding aid created in 2006. Revised and expanded in 2008. Copyright © 2006-2008 Brooklyn Public Library. All rights reserved. Descriptive Summary Creator: Various Title: Brooklyn Theater Playbills and Programs Collection Date Span: 1875-1972 Abstract: The Brooklyn Theater Playbills and Programs Collection consists of 800 playbills and programs for motion pictures, musical concerts, high school commencement exercises, lectures, photoplays, vaudeville, and burlesque, as well as the more traditional offerings such as plays and operas, all from Brooklyn theaters. Quantity: 2.25 linear feet Location: Brooklyn Collection Map Room, cabinet 11 Repository: Brooklyn Public Library – Brooklyn Collection Reference Code: BC0071 Scope and Content Note The 800 items in the Brooklyn Theater Playbills and Programs Collection, which occupies 2.25 cubic feet, easily refute the stereotypes of Brooklyn as provincial and insular. From the late 1880s until the 1940s, the period covered by the bulk of these materials, the performing arts thrived in Brooklyn and were available to residents right at their doorsteps. At one point, there were over 200 theaters in Brooklyn. Frequented by the rich, the middle class and the working poor, they enjoyed mass popularity. With materials from 115 different theaters, the collection spans almost a century, from 1875 to 1972. The highest concentration is in the years 1890 to 1909, with approximately 450 items.
