Pink Floyd

Many famous bands have sold their catalog and likenesses, like KISS and Queen recently, but now it’s Pink Floyd that has done it. They’ve sold their entire catalog, plus the band name and likeness, to SONY for $400 million dollars. This means that SONY could have a holographic tour of the band if it wanted, or put a new Pink Floyd album out with nw players.

This comes after years of infighting between bandmates David Gilmour and Roger Waters. Gilmour welcomed the opportunity to get out of the “mud bath.”

Pink Floyd still retains the publishing rights.

Oasis

Oasis is returning to touring with the first North American tour in 16 years. They’ve also added dates in Toronto, Los Angeles, East Rutherford, and two cities in Mexico. They It begins on July 4th, 2025 and is being supported by Cage The Elephant. Tickets go on sale Saturday, as the pre-sale has ended. The band says that they wont use dynamic pricing, which led to a great deal of trouble for them in the UK and Ireland.

They also promised more continents, and Liam Gallagher mentioned a new album.
