Tyler, the Creator‘s Camp Flog Gnaw Carnival will end its four-year hiatus this November 11 and 12 when it returns with a stacked lineup at L.A.’s Dodger Stadium. This year’s roster was slowly revealed on Friday (Aug. 18) during a livestream in which the names of the acts were painstakingly painted onto a mural over the course of three hours.

This year’s Camp Flog Gnaw will be headlined by SZA, The Hillbillies and Tyler, the Creator. Other performers include Ice Spice, Clipse, Lil Yachty, Kali Uchis, Earl Sweatshirt, Rex Orange County, Syd, PinkPantheress, Teezo Touchdown, Kevin Abstract, Dominic Fike, WILLOW, Ravyn Lenae, Turnstile, Khamari, Maxo Kream, Paris Texas, Beabadoobee AG Club, Balming Tiger, Left Brain, Liv.e, Spinall, Baby Rose, Redveil, Cuco, Toro y Moi, Fuerza Regida, BADBADNOTGOOD, d4vd and Domo Genesis.

The Odd Future leader launched Camp Flog Gnaw in 2012 (originally named OFWGKTA) as a combination music festival and carnival, with rides and midway games and a lineup featuring Odd Future, Lil Wayne, Trash Talk and Action Bronson.

Subsequent lineups included Frank Ocean, Mac Miller, Earl Sweatshirt and Flying Lotus in 2013, Pharrell Williams, Rick Ross, Hodgy Beats and Freddie Gibbs in 2014 and Snoop Dogg, Atmosphere, Miller, The Internet, YG and A$AP Rocky in 2015. The event spread to two days in 2016 with sets from Lil Wayne, Chance the Rapper, Kaytranada, DJ Mustard and more and Lana Del Rey, Mac DeMarco, Brockhampton, Justice and Migos in 2017.

Tyler continued to mix in more rock and indie acts over the next three years — including Rex Orange County, Little Dragon, Jorja Smith, Billie Eilish, Dominic Fike and Willow Smith — before taking a break in 2020, 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic and skipping 2022 due to Tyler’s busy schedule. All passes for this year’s event were sold out in June well before the lineup was announced.

“I never feel uglier than when I’m in LA,” Noah Kahan joked to the sold-out crowd at Los Angeles’ Greek Theatre on Friday night (Aug. 11), which was immediately met by roaring laughter and assurance from fans.

Though it’s unlikely that Kahan could ever feel ugly in his sleek white jacket featuring a photo of his beloved German Shepard and his album title Stick Season written across the back, the balance between humor and touching moments encouraging love and healing were prominent throughout the evening.

Shortly after he received a Taylor Swift-themed friendship bracelet from a fan in the front row that read “folkwhore,” the singer ran through fan-favorite and heart-wrenching tracks from his 2022 deluxe album Stick Season (We’ll All Be Here Forever), weaved with throwback hits like “False Confidence” and “Maine.”

Looking out into the audience, who showed just how much they love him by belting out every word to every song, Kahan showed his love back before performing “You’re Gonna Go Far,” a song about taking risks. “I know a lot of people here in LA aren’t from LA. They’ve taken big risks in their lives to come here,” he sweetly told the audience. “Remember that the people back home love you and are happy you’re doing well.”

He also showed his love throughout the show by encouraging his fans to go to therapy if it’s accessible to them. “I had all of these dark feelings and thoughts for a lot of my childhood and I just lied about them to my therapist for 10 years and never said anything real,” he recalled. “I was so lucky and privileged to go to therapy, but I still lied because it was scary to confront what I was actually feeling. I know it looks like I’ve been divorced two times, Los Angeles, I look old as s— but I’m only 26 [laughs] When I was 23, I started being honest and telling the truth to my therapist and I started feeling happier for the first time. It was strange for me but it felt good.”

He continued, “The happiest person in here should be in therapy. It could save your life.”

In general, the show was as cathartic and therapeutic as it gets without actually sitting down with a therapist, as fans in the audience were tearing up constantly as they heard songs that resonate with them, a unique quality of Kahan’s music that isn’t as common in the mainstream music scene these days. The swell of emotions all culminated with the set’s final song, “Homesick,” as all 6,000 people in the crowd, who are chasing dreams likely in the city they did not grow up in, came together to sing and feel at home.

Tori Kelly will be hitting the road this fall. Just weeks after her hospitalization following a health scare, the Grammy-winning singer took to social media on Tuesday (Aug. 15) to announce that she will be going on tour starting next month. “It’s been too long! the #takecontroltour is here,” Kelly said, sharing a tour poster […]

When you’re Madonna, nothing stops a celebration. After spending several days in the ICU battling a “serious bacterial infection,” Madonna was unfortunately forced to pause her career-spanning Celebration Tour. On Tuesday (Aug. 15), Live Nation announced a slew of rescheduled dates for the North American leg of the Queen of Pop’s tour.
Commemorating four decades of hit singles and pop culture-dominating albums, the North American leg of The Celebration Tour was originally scheduled to kick off on July 15 at the Rogers Arena in Vancouver and conclude on Oct. 8 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, with additional stops in Phoenix, Detroit, Toronto, Montreal and Atlanta in the interim. Madge was then set to head over to Europe and then back to North America for more dates.

The Celebration Tour will now officially kick off with four sold-out shows in London beginning Oct. 14, followed by shows across Belgium, Denmark, Sweden, Spain, Portugal, France, Germany, Italy, and the Netherlands throughout the remainder of 2023. The North American leg will commence on Dec. 13 in Brooklyn at Barclays Center, followed by shows in Boston, Seattle, Chicago, Las Vegas, Atlanta and Los Angeles. Due to scheduling conflicts, a number of previously announced shows have been canceled, including Tulsa (July 27), Nashville (Dec. 22), San Francisco (Jan. 15), Las Vegas (Jan. 18) and Phoenix (Jan. 20).

Mere weeks after Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee signed a law restricting drag shows in Tennessee, Madonna announced plans to perform in Nashville with Bob The Drag Queen opening.

“The oppression of the LGBTQ+ is not only unacceptable and inhumane; it’s creating an unsafe environment; it makes America a dangerous place for our most vulnerable citizens, especially trans women of color,” she said. “Also, these so-called laws to protect our children are unfounded and pathetic. Anyone with half a brain knows not to f–k with a drag queen. Bob and I will see you from the stage in Nashville where we will celebrate the beauty that is the queer community.” (There is currently no word on a rescheduled Nashville date.)

Pink’s record-breaking visit to Australia and New Zealand next year will include her first stadium concert in North Queensland.
The Philadelphia pop superstar will bring her Summer Carnival to the land Down Under in 2024, for a trek that expands to 16 Australian shows. Among the newly-announced dates are a fourth and final show at Melbourne’s Marvel Stadium, and a tour-closing concert March 23 at Queensland Country Bank Stadium in Townsville, a venue that typically hosts the rough and tumble of professional rugby league matches.

Pink’s one-off show in Townsville was presented at a press conference, featuring government representatives.

“Queensland is the only state where Pink is playing three separate cities, and this is the only regional stop,” comments premier Annastacia Palaszczuk, whose government is gearing up for the 2032 Olympics and Paralympics, which will be held in the state capital, Brisbane. “Major concerts like this bring visitors who spend millions of dollars in the tourism economy and support local jobs.”

Live Nation is producing the tour, which the concerts giant insists will be the biggest-selling Australian visit ever by a female artist.

Pink’s 16 stadium concerts is one record, the 725,000 ticket sales she is “currently well beyond,” according to LN, is another.

“Pink’s Aussie shows sold out in minutes across the country,” comments Live Nation Australia president Roger Field, “making the tour extension into North Queensland an exciting next step in meeting this unprecedented demand.”

Setting records in Australia is a regular pastime for Pink. She’s considered an “honorary Aussie,” and has certainly spent enough time here to earn that tag.

On her 2009 Funhouse Tour, she criss-crossed the country for a gobsmacking 59 shows, an epic adventure that took three months and saw her sell 650,000 tickets. Not bad for a population of less than 25 million at the time.

For her Truth About Love Tour in 2013-14, Pink completed 46 dates; and for the Australasian leg of her Beautiful Trauma World Tour in 2018, she spent over two months on these shores, hitting 42 arena dates.On the ARIA Charts, Pink has bagged seven No. 1 albums, most recently with Trustfall.

Live Nation Australia chairman Michael Coppel is Pink’s career-long promoter for ANZ, organizing six tours since 2004. On the 20th anniversary of that association, Pink will surpass 3 million tickets sold in Australia and New Zealand, he explains.

“Only fitting that we break new ground with the record to be set at her first show in Northern Queensland at Queensland Country Bank Stadium,” he adds.

Also announced this week, Tones And I will join Pink as special guest on the ANZ swing. The one-time busker, Tones (real name Toni Watson) set new benchmarks with her global hit “Dance Monkey,” which led charts in 30 countries, including 24-week run at No. 1 on the ARIA Chart, a record, and 11 weeks at No. 1 on the Official U.K. Singles Chart, a record for a solo female artist.

Just one night after Hip Hop 50 Live rocked Yankee Stadium, Jonas Brothers took over the iconic New York City venue on Saturday (Aug. 12) for the opening night of their massive “Five Albums. One Night. The World Tour” trek.
The band’s latest world tour, which currently boasts a whopping 94 shows, features a setlist comprised of every song from each of their previous four studio albums — 2007’s Jonas Brothers, 2008’s A Little Bit Longer, 2009’s Lines, Vines and Trying Times and 2019’s Happiness Begins — as well as selections from 2023’s The Album, standalone singles such as “What a Man Gotta Do” and “Leave Before You Love Me,” and solo tracks like Nick Jonas’ “Jealous” and Joe Jonas’ (by way of DNCE) “Cake by the Ocean.” As Nick Jonas told People, “It’s our most ambitious show we’ve ever put on, in the sense that building out five albums in one night was a challenge that I don’t think we fully understood after we’d already put it on sale.” He continued, “It’s amazing to just go back and look at the road that brought us to this moment now.”

As it has often been for the past decade-and-a-half, it was a family affair. Nick Jonas’ wife, Citadel star Priyanka Chopra Jonas, attended the tour’s opening night show, and she brought along their 18-month-old daughter, Malti Marie Chopra Jonas, to soundcheck. “From soundcheck to the stage with my girls. Yankees night one was beyond words,” Nick captioned a photo of him and his daughter sitting behind a drum kit. Joe Jonas’ wife, Emmy-nominated actress Sophie Turner, was also in attendance, standing alongside Chopra Jonas as the two took in the show together.

The celebrity appearances didn’t stop with the immediate Jonas Family. During the band’s second night at Yankee Stadium, Jimmy Fallon surprised fans with a sing-along to The Killers’ “Mr. Brightside.” “Huge thanks to @jonasbrothers for giving me the surprise guest spot on ‘The Tour’ tour. And thank you to @yankeestadium for turning it into the world’s biggest karaoke party. This is one of those nights I will never forget,” Fallon posted on X (formerly known as Twitter) on Sunday night (Aug. 13).

In addition to Fallon, Grammy-winning gospel music superstar Kirk Franklin and Grammy-nominated producer and songwriter Jon Bellion joined Jonas Brothers for the first nights of The Tour. Both Franklin and Bellion appeared for a rendition of “Walls,” the lead single from The Album, which peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 back in May. Jonas Brothers even brought out their former security guard Robert “Big Rob” Feggans to rap his fan-favorite verse on “Burnin’ Up” (No. 5), one of the band’s several Hot 100 top ten hits to appear on the setlist. Jonas Brothers’ other top ten hits on The Tour setlist include 2008’s “Tonight” (No. 8) and 2019’s “Sucker” (No. 1).

Following their two sold-out Yankee Stadium shows, Jonas Brothers have announced a fifth hometown show at Prudential Center in New Jersey. Check out some videos of their performances below.
