The Weeknd Reschedules Postponed “After Hours” Tour Dates

by

The Weeknd is heading back to The Land Down Under in just a couple of months, according to AllHipHop. Abel Tesfaye went on quite the historic tour last year celebrating his last two albums After Hours (2020) and Dawn FM (2022). The After Hours Til Dawn Tour became a global event, however a couple of stops were canceled due to “schedule and logistical constraints”. From November through December of 2023, The Weeknd was going to be closing things out in Australia and New Zealand. Because of this pretty vague reason for shutting the fans out, the Canadian superstar felt it wasn’t right to leave them hanging.

So, earlier today, The Weeknd shared this exciting update via Instagram. “AUSTRALIA, I didn’t forget about you 🖤 See you in October. Ticket presale Aug 22. 🇦🇺 LINK IN BIO”. Yes, he is returning for a short time, four days to be exact starting October 5 in Melbourne, Australia at Marvel Stadium. Additionally, he will be there on the 6. Then, after about two weeks, the “After Hours” hitmaker will then hop on a flight to Sydney for shows on the 22 and 23 at Accor Stadium.

Sadly, residents of Brisbane and Auckland, New Zealand are going to be missing out this time around. Originally, the After Hours Til Dawn Tour stops were two nights in Brisbane and two in Auckland. While fans of those respective areas were upset, the fact that The Weeknd is doing this to begin with shows how much he cares about his supporters. He said it himself in a statement, “I want to make sure you all know I hadn’t forgotten about you. When I return now, it will be the right time, and I promise it will be such a special experience. I can’t wait to see you all!”.

What are your thoughts on The Weekend heading back to Australia after previously canceling After Hours Til Dawn dates? Are you surprised he dropped the original Brisbane and Auckland stops? How do you feel about him returning after all this time later? When do you foresee him dropping new music? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments.

Red Hot Chili Peppers Extend Tour, Enlist Kid Cudi, Ken Carson And More

by

The Red Hot Chili Peppers have been going strong for almost 40 years! For any sort of artist or group to be going that long should be commended. The Los Angeles, California-based rock band burst onto the scene in the late summer of 1984 with their self-titled album. Over time, they have become an iconic collective in the genre. They have given us timeless classics, as well as radio-friendly bops that everyone can sing along to.

After taking a six-year album hiatus, they got the band together for a massive 2022. Red Hot went on to release two projects, Unlimited Love and Return of the Dream Canteen. Of course, the band went on tour and fans have been enjoying it. That certainly seems to be the case, as they have decided to extend their run into next year as well.

According to Pitchfork, dates begin as soon as December 9 and then will pick back up on February 17. It will come to a close on July 30 in St. Louis, MO at the Hollywood Casino Amphitheatre. In addition to that, Red Hot is also enlisting some extra guests to join them throughout those next five months. Artists include Kid Cudi, Ken Carson, Ice Cube, Wand, Irontom, Seun Kuti, and Egypt 80, as well as Otoboke Beaver. Almost every date has a combination of two names. It is cool to see Cudi and Carson join them, seeing as both borrow some elements of rock into their material.

What are your initial thoughts on the Red Hot Chili Peppers extending their tour? Do you think the choice of extra guests is a good fit? Does this make you want to go see one of these shows coming up? We would like to hear what you have to say about all of this. With that in mind, be sure to leave all of your hottest takes in the comments section below.

Beyoncé Adds More “Renaissance” Tour Dates Amid Ticket Chaos

by

One of the most anticipated, grandiose, and frustratingly in-demand tours of the year is already off to a wild start. Beyoncé recently announced more tour dates for her upcoming Renaissance World Tour in various North American cities. Moreover, this announcement comes after fans struggled to buy their tickets online due to the insane number of hopeful concertgoers. Still, a few additional shows might help at least somewhat. Moreover, they added shows in Toronto on July 9, Chicago on July 23, East Rutherford on July 30, and Washington D.C. on August 6. Also, Atlanta has another show on August 12, Los Angeles on September 3 and Houston on September 24.

However, these dates offer little help to accommodate the demand in the long run, according to event organizers. In a press statement, Live Nation shared that fan demand exceeded available seats by over 800%, given current registration numbers. Even with these added dates, they remarked that it’ll be a relatively small group of fans at each show. At least, compared to the truckloads of people in line. “It is still expected that the majority of interested fans will not be able to get tickets… Demand drastically exceeds supply.”

Regardless, the World Tour will kick off in Stockholm, Sweden on May 10. Following that are more European shows through June 27. Also, rumors spread recently that Beyoncé might bring her show to Ghana. After all, it is a world tour, and fans in Africa have waited for a long time for her. Still, the tour’s North American leg will begin in Toronto on July 8 and is scheduled to run until September 27 at New Orleans.

Even with all this ticket fiasco going on, are you one of the lucky fans with a Beyoncé ticket, or are you trying for these new dates? Whatever the case, let us know in the comments below and check out presale details here. Also, as always, come back to HNHH for the latest on Beyoncé, RENAISSANCE‘s tour, and our slim chances of nabbing tickets.
