Tool Announces First String of 2016 Winter Tour Dates
Progressive rock/metal band Tool have announced a short string of tour dates that will take place in January 2016 and possibly beyond. So far, only six dates have been released but their spread suggests that several more will be added to fill in not only the interesting date gaps but also the geographical spread.
According to an email that announced LA industrial metal group 3Teeth would act as the opening support, the direct support to Tool will be none other than Primus! Color me very, very intrigued!
Back in March, it was announced that the lawsuit that was holding up the band from recording and releasing new music had been settled. Since then, we’ve heard nothing really concrete but now that Maynard has released a new Puscifer album, hopefully he can find some time for a fifth full length album from this influential group.
The confirmed tour dates are below.
Confirmed tour dates:
Saturday, January 9 – San Diego, CA @ Viejas Arena
Wednesday, January 13 – San Antonio, TX @ AT&T Center
Saturday, January 16 – Tulsa, OK @ BOK Center
Sunday, January 17 – Grand Prairie, TX (Dallas) @ Verizon Theatre
Monday, January 25 – Atlanta, GA @ Infinite Energy Center
Tuesday, January 26 – Charlotte, NC @ Bojangles Coliseum
The Lost Boys: A New Musical officially kicked off on Broadway last month, and Deadline now reports that the show’s Broadway run has been extended into next year.
The show was originally set to run through November, but Deadline reports that The Lost Boys: A New Musical “has released a block of tickets through Sunday, March 7, 2027.”
The news comes in the wake of The Lost Boys: A New Musical becoming the most Tony-nominated musical of the season with twelve nominations including Best Musical.
Additionally, “The Lost Boys will launch a North American National Tour in Spring 2028, at Playhouse Square in Cleveland. Additional cities and tour dates will be announced later.”
The Lost Boys: A New Musical is of course an adaptation of the 1987 horror classic from director Joel Schumacher, with the cast including Ali Louis Bourzgui as lead vampire David (originally played by Kiefer Sutherland), Maria Wirries as Star (originally played by Jami Gertz), and LJ Benet as the soon-to-be-turned Michael (originally played by Jason Patric).
The horror musical’s cast also includes Shoshana Bean as Lucy Emerson, Benjamin Pajak as Sam Emerson, Paul Alexander Nolan as Max, Jennifer Duka as Alan Frog, Miguel Gil as Edgar Frog, Brian Flores as Marko, Sean Grandillo as Dwayne, and Dean Maupin as Paul.
The Lost Boys: A New Musical is Directed by Michael Arden, featuring Music and Lyrics by The Rescues, Book by David Hornsby & Chris Hoch, Story by James Jeremias & Janice Fischer, and Produced by James Carpinello, Marcus Chait & Patrick Wilson (The Conjuring) by special arrangement with Warner Bros. Theatre Ventures.
When a mother and her two teenage sons move to Santa Carla in desperate need of a fresh start, they soon uncover the darker side of this sunny coastal community. While Lucy tries to piece her family’s life back together, Michael keeps pulling away in search of belonging.
As he finds connection with a local rock band and its charismatic leader, his younger brother Sam comes face-to-face with a terrifying reality: When night falls, Michael’s new friends are even more dangerous than they first appeared.
Joel Schumacher directed the original The Lost Boys vampire movie in 1987, wherein two brothers move to a new town and discover that the area is a haven for vampires.
