Dark Star Orchestra, one of the country’s premier Grateful Dead tribute bands, have finalized their U.S. summer touring schedule. The tour will span both coasts and everything in between, and the band’s August slate now contains shows all throughout New York State.
Along the tour, Dark Star Orchestra is going to be performing some special this summer. For the July 21 show at the Stone Pony Summer Stage in Asbury Park, NJ the band announced today they will be recreating the Dead’s epic 9/3/77 show from nearby Englishtown, NJ. “Its proximity, only 25 miles from Asbury Park, and the fact that it was an epic outdoor show, made sense for us to choose,” notes DSO bassist Skip Vangelas. “Itâs a classic show in the GD world and one that New Jerseyans, whether Deadhead or not have never forgotten!”
A few weeks later, the band is scheduled to play Wonderland Forest in Lafayette, NY on August 9 and 10. The newly established venue located just south of Syracuse will also play host to the Biscoland festival this summer. DSO will also play The Rooftop at Pier 17 on August 11, Innovative Field in Rochester on August 21 and the Frog Alley Summer Stage in Schenectady the following day on August 22.
Special dates are dotted all throughout the summer tour, including the band’s debut at the Greek Theatre in Berkeley, CA on July 13. It marks a celebration of 40 years of the Rex Foundation and the benefit performance will see DSO offer a 40-years-to-the-day recreation of the Dead’s 7/13/84 performance from The Greek Theatre.

NYC sibling duo The Lemon Twigs have just released their latest LP, A Dream Is All We Know, via independent Brooklyn label, Captured Tracks. They also embark on an international tour, stopping back in New York for shows at Levon Helm Studios in Woodstock, and Webster Hall in the East Village.
The Lemon Twigs – a duo consisting of brothers Brian and Michael D’Addario from Hicksville, Long Island – have been described as “remarkably inventive… harmonically unlike anything that’s come before them” by Michael McDonald. The brothers formed the band while still enrolled at Hicksville High School, and have been consistently recording and touring since 2014.
A Dream Is All We Know was recorded completely to tape and mixed and mastered by Brian and Michael themselves on of-the-era equipment, and explores the timeless tropes of the Lennon-McCartney songbook, with Sean Ono Lennon co-producing “In The Eyes Of The Girl.” The album features the harmonies of the Wilson family, and many other 1968 influences including The Move, Big Star, The Raspberries, The Byrds, The Left Banke, and many more.
The Lemon Twigs have also announced a massive, 30 date headlining tour this fall. The run of shows include some of their biggest US venues to date including Webster Hall. The fall tour follows summer dates across the Southeastern US and a leg in the EU.

Metal band Megadeth have announced their “Destroy All Enemies” North American tour which will include shows at the MVP Arena on Sept. 10, Bethel Woods Center For The Arts on Sept. 13 and Northwell Health at Jones Beach Theater on Sept. 14.
The renowned “Destroy All Enemies” Tour will feature opening acts from Illinois-based heavy metal band Mudvayne, and Massachusetts-based metal core band All That Remains.
Megadeth shared that they will perform most of their classic hits from Rust In Peace, Countdown to Extinction and more. Megadeth’s tour will also bring Dave Mustaine and bandmates back to North America to perform their latest studio album The Sick, the Dying… and the Dead! which featured some of Mustaine’s strongest-ever songwriting to date.
The band’s U.S part of the tour promises to offer an equally ambitious live performance that delivers on all fronts. “Our Crush The World tour has been a tremendous experience for the four of us,” shared the band’s frontman Dave Mustaine. “We are all playing tight, and that has made it possible for me to really focus on solos and singing, we are playing more songs than ever before, and we are closer to each other, onstage and off. I’m excited to see Mudvayne, and All That Remains…” Dave added.
Megadeth’s North American tour comes on the heels of a highly anticipated and successful stint in Latin America which wrapped this month and will later start back up in Europe this summer. With stops in Peru, Chile, Argentina, Brazil and México and forthcoming dates in Sweden, Italy, France, Germany and more, the band’s global appeal and lasting impact is more apparent than ever as continued calls for international touring are demanded.
Megadeth will bring their “Destroy All Enemies” North American tour at the MVP Arena in Albany on Sept. 10, Bethel Woods Center For The Arts in Bethel on Sept. 13 and at the Northwell Health at Jones Beach Theater in Wantagh in Wantagh on Sept. 14. Fans can find tickets here.

The event featured acoustic and full-band sets from The Head and the Heart plus some of today’s top folk and rock talent, including Dawes, Miya Folick, and Faye Webster. The group was touring in support of their fifth studio album, Every Shade of Blue – released in 2022.
Initially self-released in 2011, The Head And The Heart’s self-titled breakout debut produced instant classics including “Rivers and Roads,” “Down in the Valley” and “Lost In My Mind” (#1 at AAA) and is now certified Gold. 2013’s Let’s Be Still and 2016’s Signs of Light settled into Billboard’s Top 10 Albums chart. The single “All We Ever Knew” became the band’s first #1 at on the Alternative chart and was also #1 at AAA for nine straight weeks. The band’s fourth full-length, Living Mirage, was released to critical praise in 2019.
The band has appeared in Cameron Crowe’s Roadies and their music has been featured in countless other commercials, films, and TV shows.

The Commodores and The Pointer Sisters have teamed up for a sensational co-headlining tour: An Evening of Icons, which will stop at Northwell Health at Jones Beach Theater on July 25.
These musical icons are ready to wow audiences with their unique fusion of funk, soul, R&B, and pop. Their career spans decades, and they have sold over 100 million albums and an array of chart-topping hits. To add even more magic to the mix, they’re welcoming special guests, The Spinners.
The Commodores are the powerhouse behind classics like “Brick House” and “Easy.” They’re delighted to perform alongside The Pointer Sisters, especially in light of Motown’s 65th anniversary. This tour celebrates the enduring power of music, as their timeless hits continue to bring people together across generations.
Meanwhile, The Pointer Sisters, who have achieved success with hits like “I’m So Excited” and “Jump (For My Love),” are just as thrilled to collaborate. They are preparing to give a show that will keep the audience talking long after the curtains close. The sisters added, “65 years of Motown and timeless hits! What a milestone. It’s a joy to be touring with a true Motown treasure, The Commodores. Here’s to the music that continues to move generations!”
This tour, presented by Live Nation and represented by the renowned Seth Shomes of Day After Day Productions (DADP), will begin with a bang on Thursday, July 25 at Northwell Health at Jones Beach Theater. Representing these legendary acts is a dream come true for Seth Shomes. He grew up listening to their music, so when the tour hits New York in July, he’s excited to see the fans belting out every word.
Heavy metal band GWAR has announced the “Age of Entitlement” Tour coming to ravage the US in June and September. The tour sees a single date in New York at the Town Ballroom in Buffalo.
GWAR embarks on the “Age of Entitlement” Tour for two more legs of 2024 headline dates in support of their most recent album New Dark Ages. This summer, the band has enlisted drug metal addicts WEEDEATER along with the dangerous cop rock of X-COPS as support. The summer leg of the “The Age of Entitlement” kicks off on June 7th in Hartford, Connecticut, and wraps on June 17th in Tampa, Florida.
In September, GWAR will go out again to further their devastation, this time with brutal Latin American death grinders Brujeria. Joining them is grindcore band BRAT, and the hardcore punk/metal evangelists Cancer Christ. That leg gets going on September 12 in Buffalo, New York, and comes to a close on September 20 in Fayetteville, Arkansas.
To say that GWAR is anything remotely standard is a heinous accusation. This group is unique to say the least. Their brutal, gut-wrenching outfits coupled with their mind-crushing, maniacal metal is an experience to behold that transcends music.
The metal that GWAR releases onto the audience is something to feel for yourself in person. The stage presence of this band is second to none. It is surely an experience you won’t or can’t forget. Tickets go on sale this Friday at 10:00 AM local time. Pre-sale tickets are available now through Thursday at 10:00 PM local time.

“This is an incredible time in the history of the world, so much death and destruction in the face of so much senseless entitlement and arrogant darkness. We cannot wait to shock some sense into humanity with the most outrageous performance of heavy metal theater ever to descend from the gods.”
GWAR vocalist Blothar the Berserker
