Hollywood Undead And In This Moment Revive The Taste Of Chaos Tour

A beloved name in heavy touring is back from the dead. The Taste of Chaos traveling tour and festival returns this fall after a decade away, led by rock headliners Hollywood Undead and In This Moment.

The run kicks off September 22 at The Fillmore in Charlotte. From there it rolls through Virginia Beach, Worcester, Omaha, Dallas, Reno, and Denver, hitting rooms like New Haven’s College Street Music Hall, the Aragon Ballroom in Chicago, The Theater at Virgin Hotels Las Vegas, and Maricopa’s Harrah’s Ak-Chin before wrapping October 26 at the House of Blues in Anaheim. I See Stars, Vana, and Melrose Avenue open throughout, rounding out a bill built for a long night of loud. Tickets are on sale now.

The package carries real history. Often dubbed the “Winter Warped Tour,” Taste of Chaos was founded by Warped Tour creator Kevin Lyman. The traveling festival first ran from 2005 to 2008, returned for special events, and officially relaunched in 2016. Its revival gives a new wave of fans a shot at one of heavy music’s most storied road shows.

Billie Joe Armstrong’s Pinhead Gunpowder Map A 12-Date Fall Run Behind ‘Unt’

Billie Joe Armstrong’s Pinhead Gunpowder Map A 12-Date Fall Run Behind ‘Unt’

Billie Joe Armstrong’s longest-running side hustle is heading back on the road. Pinhead Gunpowder, the Green Day frontman’s punk offshoot, have revealed a 12-date fall 2026 tour across North America.

The run kicks off October 7 at Minneapolis’ First Avenue. From there it rolls through Toronto, Philadelphia, San Francisco, and Portland, stopping at rooms like New York City’s Irving Plaza, Pacific Electric in Los Angeles, and Detroit’s Saint Andrew’s Hall before wrapping November 11 at Garden Amphitheatre in Garden Grove, California. Night Shop supports the Midwest and east coast dates, with Constant Insult opening the west coast shows. Tickets are available now.

The band are riding a genuine second wind. The offshoot, featuring Armstrong and touring guitarist Jason White, resurfaced in 2024 with the album ‘Unt’ after a 16-year break. Around the release, they reflected that they’d agreed to write songs back in 1990, but that since 2010 they’d just been playing for themselves and remembered how they’d made music for each other in the first place. That loose, for-the-love-of-it spirit is exactly what makes a Pinhead Gunpowder show worth catching. The lineup is rounded out by drummer Aaron Cometbus and bassist Bill Schneider.

Pinhead Gunpowder 2026 Tour Dates:

October 7 – Minneapolis, MN @ First Avenue

October 8 – Chicago, IL @ Metro

October 10 – Detroit, MI @ Saint Andrew’s Hall

October 11 – Toronto, ON @ Danforth Music Hall

October 14 – New York, NY @ Irving Plaza

October 16 – Philadelphia, PA @ First Unitarian Church

November 3 – Seattle, WA @ The Showbox

November 4 – Portland, OR @ Roseland Theater

November 7 – San Francisco, CA @ August Hall

November 8 – San Luis Obispo, CA @ Fremont Theater

November 10 – Los Angeles, CA @ Pacific Electric

November 11 – Garden Grove, CA @ Garden Amphitheatre

Tom Morello Assembles Bruce Springsteen, Foo Fighters, And Dave Matthews For “Power To The People” Festival

Tom Morello is bringing some serious firepower to Maryland. The guitarist has announced the inaugural Power to the People festival, a one-day event headlined by Bruce Springsteen, Foo Fighters, and Dave Matthews.

The festival lands Saturday, October 3, 2026 at Merriweather Post Pavilion in Columbia, Maryland, just outside Washington, D.C. Organizers describe it as a non-partisan celebration of peace, justice, solidarity, music, and community action. Tickets are on sale now through powertothepeoplefest.com.

The lineup runs deep beyond the headliners. The bill also features Joan Baez, Brittany Howard, Dropkick Murphys, Cypress Hill, Killer Mike, Grandson, Taylor Momsen, Serj Tankian, Matt Cameron, the Linda Lindas, and Morello himself, with Springsteen listed as a special guest performer. Jack Black appears alongside Roman Morello, Revel Ian, Yoyoka Soma, and Hugo Weiss, and artist Shepard Fairey participates with artwork displays and a DJ set. It’s a stacked, genre-spanning roster built for a day with real purpose behind it.

Morello announced the festival Wednesday night during an appearance at Nationals Park in Washington, D.C., where he’s currently touring with Springsteen. He framed the event around freedom, justice, equality, and rock and roll, pointing to the power everyday people have when they come together through music, art, community, and action.

The festival goes well beyond the two stages. A section called Freedom Village will gather nonprofit organizations, advocacy groups, artists, and community partners focused on civic engagement, grassroots organizing, education, and mutual aid. A portion of all ticket proceeds, plus all net proceeds from VIP tickets, benefits VoteRiders and HeadCount, with HeadCount on site to help attendees with voter registration. More guests, organizations, and activities are expected in the coming weeks.

Power to the People Festival Lineup:

Headliners: Bruce Springsteen (special guest), Foo Fighters, Dave Matthews

Also performing: Joan Baez, Brittany Howard, Dropkick Murphys, Cypress Hill, Killer Mike, Grandson, Taylor Momsen, Serj Tankian, Matt Cameron, The Linda Lindas, Tom Morello

The Tallest Man On Earth Maps A 24-Date Fall Run And Shares “Colors”

The Tallest Man on Earth is coming back to North America, and he’s not arriving empty-handed. The Swedish folk artist has announced a 24-date fall tour across the United States and Canada, paired with his first new original song in more than three years.

The North American run begins October 15 at Haw River Ballroom in Saxapahaw, North Carolina. From there it threads through Washington DC, New York, Boston, Toronto, Chicago, Salt Lake City, Seattle, Vancouver, and Los Angeles before wrapping November 14 in San Diego at Observatory North Park Theatre. Tickets are on sale now.

The bigger news for longtime fans is the music. Kristian Matsson, the singer-songwriter behind the project, shared his new single “Colors” this week, the first original Tallest Man on Earth song in over three years. It lands after a stretch of anticipation following the project’s 2023 album ‘Henry St.’, and Matsson’s intimate, fingerpicked songwriting is exactly the kind of thing built to carry a room this size.

Julia Louis-Dreyfus Makes Her Broadway Debut In The ‘Other Desert Cities’ Revival

Julia Louis-Dreyfus Makes Her Broadway Debut In The ‘Other Desert Cities’ Revival

One of television’s most beloved performers is finally taking the Broadway stage. Julia Louis-Dreyfus is set to make her Broadway debut in the first revival of Jon Robin Baitz’s Tony-winning drama ‘Other Desert Cities’, opening this fall at the Hudson Theatre.

The cast around her is stacked. Louis-Dreyfus plays Polly opposite Ed Harris as Lyman, Allison Janney as Silda, Joe Keery as Trip, and Lily Rabe as Brooke. Previews begin September 29 ahead of an official opening night on October 18, with the limited engagement running through January 17, 2027. Tony winner John Benjamin Hickey directs, and casting is by Jim Carnahan.

Baitz was candid that the return wasn’t part of his plans. He said he’d more or less talked himself out of imagining the play back in New York, but pointed to his deep trust in Hickey, who he calls family, and to a company of actors a playwright dreams about. He added that nearly 20 years later, through all the fractures and divisions, the play’s central questions remain the same: how to live with who we are and what we’ve done, and call that a life.

Hickey echoed that pull. He said he’s loved Baitz’s plays since the playwright began writing them, having acted in two early in his career, and that revisiting ‘Other Desert Cities’ left him stunned by how relevant it remains, maybe more than ever.

The play’s pedigree runs strong. ‘Other Desert Cities’ first premiered Off-Broadway at Lincoln Center Theater in 2011 before transferring to Broadway later that year. It centers on a writer who threatens to publish a memoir exposing a long-buried family secret, igniting tension within her politically divided family, and it went on to become a finalist for the 2012 Pulitzer Prize for Drama. Tickets are on sale now through the production’s official website.

Performance Schedule:

September 29 – Previews begin, Hudson Theatre, New York, NY

October 18 – Official opening night

Through January 17, 2027 – Limited engagement

Broadway’s ‘Two Strangers (Carry a Cake Across New York)’ Sets A 2027 North American Tour

Broadway’s ‘Two Strangers (Carry a Cake Across New York)’ Sets A 2027 North American Tour

A pair of strangers is about to crisscross the country. The Broadway musical ‘Two Strangers (Carry a Cake Across New York)’ has announced a North American tour launching in fall 2027, carrying the feel-good hit well beyond New York.

The run is set to begin at the Providence Performing Arts Center in Providence, Rhode Island, before traveling to cities across the United States and Canada. Additional stops and casting details are expected later.

Producer Kevin McCollum framed the news around the show’s growing connection with audiences. He called it a funny, original, and uplifting story with soaring songs, theatrical stage magic, and knockout performances, the kind of thing Broadway does best. He added that the musical taps a universal truth, showing how the most random meetings can create family against the odds, and invited theatergoers to arrive as strangers and leave as friends.

The Broadway production is making its case nightly. Currently playing at the Longacre Theatre, the show stars Christiani Pitts and Sam Tutty, both of whom appeared in the American Repertory Theater production before the transfer. Tutty previously originated the role of Dougal in London.

The creative pedigree is strong. The musical features a book, music, and lyrics by Jim Barne and Kit Buchan, with Tim Jackson directing and choreographing after staging the London version. The team includes scenic and costume designer Soutra Gilmour, lighting designer Jack Knowles, sound designer Tony Gayle, music supervisor Nick Finlow, and orchestrator Lux Pyramid, with casting by C12 Casting and Stephen Kopel. The production is produced by McCollum, Tim Johanson, Glass Half Full Productions, and Jamie Wilson Productions.

2027 North American Tour:

Fall 2027 – Providence, RI @ Providence Performing Arts Center (opening, additional dates TBA)
