  • Porno For Pyros to Bid Farewell, Two March Dates in New York

    Alternative rock group Porno For Pyros announced a North American tour for this coming spring, originally breaking a 26-year touring hiatus, but now will be a farewell tour. Titled the “Horns, Thorns, En Halos Tour” includes two stops in New York State, Port Chester on March 7 and NYC on March 8, 2024.

    Porno For Pyros Upcoming Tour

    Porno For Pyros formed in 1992 in Los Angeles, following vocalist Perry Farrell and drummer Stephen Perkins’s departure from 90’s rock group Jane’s Addiction. Their first record, a self titled album released in 1993, charted immediately on Billboard’s Top 100. The group followed up with Good God’s Urge in 1996, and later disbanded in 1998.

    The group has been teasing a full return since 2013, and is set to release a brand new EP next year. Their most recent release, a single titled “Agua,” released on November 16. The new track is inspired by environmental concerns, and reminiscing memories from surfing trips the group took in the 90’s.

    Now we’re here, and that same heart, that same desire to make music together, has returned. Getting together with these guys has been some of the most fun, the happiest times in my life

    Perry Farrell, vocalist

    Porno For Pyros will play two shows in New York State on their upcoming tour, in Port Chester and NYC. The group will play The Capitol Theatre in Port Chester on March 7. Finally, they will make a stop at NYC’s Manhattan Center Hammerstein Ballroom the following day on March 8.

    Folk-inflected rock artist John Mellencamp confirms the continuation of his acclaimed tour “Live and In Person 2024”, performing in 27 cities including Schenectady and kicking off in Rochester on March 8, 2024.

    Mellencamp is a member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, a recipient of the John Steinbeck Award, ASCAP Foundation’s Champion Award, The Woody Guthrie Award and Americana Music Association’s Lifetime Achievement Award and more recently, the Founders Award, the top honor assigned by the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers and a member of the Songwriters Hall of Fame.

    “Beyond being just a rock star, he’s written songs that moved people, American anthems about teenage romance, about coming of age into adulthood, about families suffering through hard times in a trickle-down economy.” 

    – Pittsburgh Post Gazette

    Last year, he released a deluxe edition reissue of his beloved seminal album, Scarecrow, which features a massive collection of bonus tracks, rarities and more never previously shared before. His critically acclaimed studio LP, Strictly A One-Eyed Jack, was released early last year to praise from The New York Times, NPR Music, Associated Press, The Wall Street Journal, Forbes and more.

    The tour will kickoff in Rochester on March 8th with stops including Newark, Hartford, Schenectady, Washington D.C. and more with tickets going on sale Friday, November 3rd. The new tour dates will celebrate Mellencamp’s most recent album ‘Orpheus Descending’, recorded as his 25th studio album, exploring political and personal themes that compliment his American rocker artistry. He will continue to perform songs from the LP including standout tracks “The Eyes of Portland” and “Hey God” that highlight social issues Mellencamp continues to passionately advocate for.

  • Geddy Lee Announces Exclusive New York Date for “My Effin’ Life” In Conversation Tour

    Geddy Lee, the iconic Canadian musician and Rock ‘N’ Roll Hall of Famer, is set to electrify New York City on Monday, November 13 with a one-of-a-kind event, “My Effin’ Life” In Conversation.

    This highly anticipated evening will take place at The Beacon Theatre, a legendary venue for music enthusiasts. Geddy Lee’s special appearance is not just a performance, it is a journey into the heart and soul of one of the most legendary figures in rock history.

    geddy lee my effin life in conversation

    The event will coincide with the release of Geddy Lee’s eagerly awaited memoir, “My Effin’ Life,” which hits the shelves on November 14, courtesy of Harper Collins. This intimate evening promises to be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for fans to connect with Geddy Lee and delve into the stories that have shaped his extraordinary life and career.

    As the curtain rises at The Beacon Theatre, Geddy Lee will offer a rare glimpse into the tapestry of his life, from heartfelt reflections on his family and childhood to a deep dive into the history of Rush alongside lifelong friends and bandmates, Alex Lifeson and Neil Peart.

    Joining Geddy Lee on stage will be a special guest interviewer who will guide the conversation, providing fans with an intimate and unfiltered look at the man behind the music. Geddy Lee will read select passages from “My Effin’ Life” and share insights and anecdotes from his incredible journey.

    Furthermore, fans will have the unique opportunity to participate in a special Q&A session, where they can directly engage with Geddy Lee and have their burning questions answered.

    “Being in a band all those years was reassuring because it was an ongoing thing. It felt like it was forever. There was always unfinished business: the next record, the next set design, the next tour. It’s been the theme of my life. But you need a lot more determination to proceed in the world of music without the comfort of your bandmates, and I can only hope that finishing this book will release me to return to what I do and love best.”

    Geddy Lee

    General ticket sales for this event begin on Friday, October 6, 2023, at 10 am, exclusively on Ticketmaster. Every ticket purchase includes a complimentary copy of Geddy Lee’s “My Effin’ Life,” which will be provided to ticket holders upon entry to the venue. Please note that there is a four-ticket limit per person.

    In addition to the excitement surrounding the event, Geddy Lee’s “My Effin’ Life” tour is giving back. $1 from every ticket sold will contribute to the Neil Peart Memorial At Lakeside Park fund. The success of this project and its timeline depends on raising the $1 million fundraising goal set for the project. Fans and supporters can make donations of any size towards the memorial project online at www.stcatharines.ca/neilpeart.
