#183 - Biggest Sellouts | 2023 Grammy’s | Heavy Flirtation: Sleep Token

Elton John’s “Farewell Yellow Brick Road” Tour has become the most profitable tour in history, as reported by Pollstar. Pollstar has been tracking concert industry tickets sales for over 40 years. They recently published a list of artist’s with the most tickets sold & the highest grossing concerts. Jay found this to be an interesting treasure trove of potential quiz material…and so we have one.  

Song: Parannoul - “Arrival”

Nick reports on the 2023 Grammy Awards. Viola Davis is 18th on the EGOT list, Beyoncé breaks the record for most Grammy’s, Questlove arranged a 15min homage to 50 years of Hip Hop and Wilco’s ‘Yankee Hotel Foxtrot’ won 21 years late!

Song: Wilco - “Jesus, Etc”

Greg is back with another Heavy Flirtation and this week he’s snuggling up with Sleep Token. Who are they? No idea, in fact no one does! Masked and anonymous, the English progressive-post-metal-indie band is about to release their 3rd studio album. A string of singles from the upcoming album have been incredible successful on streaming platforms and Greg likes what he’s hearing!

Songs:

• Sleep Token - “The Summoning”

• Sleep Token - “Chokehold”

• Sleep Token - “Hypnosis”
