Ticket-Touting Pressure Builds: The RFU wants to turn Twickenham’s Allianz Stadium into a bigger live-music hub, proposing non-rugby events to rise from 3 to 15 a year, with a new “facility fee” to help fund community work. Streaming Shock: Spotify’s 20th-anniversary outage left thousands unable to stream across the UK and US, before the service returned. Eurovision Backlash: A BBC Eurovision commentator’s gripe about “losing” Eurovision echoes wider anger over UK entries and the contest’s politics, while Palestinian artists say UK visa refusals derailed a London Nakba event. Artist Business Watch: Dermot Kennedy’s firm reports €6.4m in accumulated profits, and Paul McCartney’s Rock & Roll Hall exhibit faces a customs delay over CITES rules for Brazilian rosewood guitars. New Releases & Tours: Lady Gaga’s new Devil Wears Prada 2 tracks hit the UK charts; Billie Eilish’s tour film keeps topping UK bestseller lists; Gorgon City and Fat Dog announce fresh autumn dates.
