Rod Stewart does not care for Ed Sheeran‘s music, and he’s happy to let the world know!

Rod Stewart thinks that Ed Sheeran is a bad habit. In a recent interview with the UK’s oldest national newspaper, The Times, the 79-year-old singer discussed which musicians he thought would stand the test of time, among the younger generation. “You mean like ‘Maggie May’? Songs that will be played in 50 years?” Stewart said.

Stevie Nicks just added 12 new dates to her 2024 ‘Live In Concert Tour.’The new solo shows will take place from May through June; along the way, she’ll stop in at Albany, NY’s MVP Arena on Wednesday, June 12.“It’s a new year… Let’s keep this thing going,” the two-time Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee shared on Instagram. “I can’t wait to see you all soon.”Prior to the recently added concerts, Nicks is slated to perform at Elmont, NY’s UBS Arena on Wednesday, Feb.

Rod Stewart has taken a shot at Ed Sheeran, suggesting that he “didn’t know any of his songs”, while praising the “tremendous” George Ezra.The rock legend was being interviewed by The Times when he was asked whether he thought that there were still songwriters creating timeless songs.“I’m sure they are,” he replied. “You mean like ‘Maggie May’? Songs that will be played in 50 years?

NME about why so many grassroots events have seen cancellations recently or are taking a fallow year in 2024.While a number of the UK’s mid-to-large capacity festivals have shared their line-ups over recent weeks, a number of grassroots events have broken news to fans that they would no longer be going ahead.
