Aerosmith Announce Live Return With All-Star Hollywood Bowl Shows

Aerosmith aren’t quite done yet. Maybe they should be done, what with the still-pending sexual assault lawsuit against Steven Tyler and all. After the band postponed their farewell tour a bunch of times, they canceled it in 2024, announcing that they were retiring from the road. Last year, they released their first new music in 12 years, and it was an EP with Yungblud. Their Disney World rollercoaster is now a Muppets rollercoaster. But despite all those signs from the universe, Aerosmith have evidently decided that they’ve got at least two live shows left in them.

St. Vincent Covers Yeah Yeah Yeahs At Gabriela Hearst’s Spring 2027 Runway Show

St. Vincent was at Paris Fashion Week on Monday to provide a live soundtrack for Gabriela Hearst’s spring 2027 collection, which was inspired by Afghan women’s textile traditions.

Hayley Williams Responds To DHS Criticism Over “Fuck ICE” Comments

Hayley Williams has a habit of riling up the Republicans, like when she told Morgan Wallen to find her “at Whole Foods, bitch.” She caught heat from the Department of Homeland Security after proclaiming “Fuck ICE” and “Free Palestine” at her show at Chula Vista, California on Saturday (Oct. 3), and she’s responding by refusing to back down.
