90s: Last News

John Cusack movies, we’d bet you haven’t caught them with the man himself in the theater.This summer and fall, the “Being John Malkovich” star will rectify that.From September through November, the 57-year-old actor is touring all over North America.Along the way, the ’80s and ’90s icon will drop into Patchogue, NY’s Patchogue Theater on Oct. 8, New Brunswick, NJ’s State Theatre on Oct.

smashing concert ticket sales in store for you.The Smashing Pumpkins are hitting the road in the next few months for their 26-date ‘The World Is A Vampire Tour’ where Billy Corgan and co. will tear up the stage all over North America in support of their 2023 album ‘ATUM.’That includes gigs at Holmdel, NJ’s PNC Bank Arts Center on Aug.

Nothing Compares 2 U” — the unparalleled breakup ballad that turned Sinéad O’Connor’s tears into a chart-topping triumph — in an even more heartbreaking way today.Indeed — after the Irish icon’s shocking passing on Wednesday at just 56 — nothing can take away these blues right now.But while all those flowers planted in the backyard may have died, “Nothing Compares 2 U” signaled the bloom of a new era in rock after it went to No. 1 in the spring of 1990.Following the ’80s domination of pop superstars including Michael Jackson, Madonna, Whitney Houston and Prince — who wrote “Nothing Compares 2 U” for the Family, his side project that originally released the song in 1985 — rising alt-rock star O’Connor represented a game change when her definitive version dropped in the first days of January 1990.After becoming a darling of the MTV “120 Minutes” crowd with her 1987 debut “The Lion and the Cobra,” O’Connor traded the more rocking, dance-driven attack of “Mandinka” and “I Want Your (Hands on Me)” for something totally different and surprising: an emotionally bare ballad, dripping in strings and sorrow, that revealed a striking vulnerability.No doubt — it cut even closer to the bone than her shaved head.And then there was that iconic video with O’Connor in crushing close-up, shedding that single tear.

Ben Folds may have just completed his final rock album.In a recent interview with Forbes, the 55-year-old singer-songwriter shared that his 2023 record “What Matters Most” may be his last offering before he pivots to writing musicals and other types of songs.Thankfully, you can still catch the man who brought the world “Brick,” “Rockin’ The Suburbs,” “B—-es Ain’t S—,” “The Luckiest” and “You Don’t Know Me” live this year.Folds is taking his ‘What Matters Most Tour’ with special guest Tall Heights all over the U.S. up until Oct.

plot forward in “Barbie” — and Rob Thomas loves it.Matchbox Twenty’s frontman weighed in on the inclusion of 1996’s “Push” in the new “Barbie” movie — admitting he was worried at first about it being a joke, but has since recognized it’s a clever callout.Ken (Ryan Gosling) plays the track for hours on end on his guitar for Barbie (Margot Robbie) while sitting around a campfire.The scene (and song) is a pivotal point in the film, pushing an ego-bruised Ken to embrace toxic masculinity and take over Barbie Land — which Thomas praised as a perfect choice.“I want to preface this by saying that I thought it was hilarious. But in ‘Bring It On,’ [Kirsten Dunst’s character] has this douchey boyfriend.

Matchbox Twenty in the U.S. remaining this year.The group’s ‘Slow Dream Tour,’ which comes on the heels of their 2023 album “Where The Light Goes,” has just 14 shows remaining on its sprawling tour calendar.Thankfully for New York fans, it isn’t too late to catch Rob Thomas and co.

King of Horror 30 years ago. That’s what happened when Michael Jackson enlisted Stephen King to work on a short film tentatively titled “Is This Scary?” In it, the “Thriller” singer would play a man in a mansion who has to defend himself against an angry mob of townspeople accusing him of scaring their children.“People in this town felt that this person on the hill was weird and strange and scary,” says King in “Think Twice: Michael Jackson,” a new podcast available on Audible and Amazon Music. “And the kids were kinda like, ‘Yeah, we sorta dig this guy!’”But in an eerie twist, 12 days into shooting “Is This Scary?” — on Aug.

debuted on Amazon Music and Audible on Thursday — details how the King of Pop pored over market research in which people would make harsh comments about his looks and idiosyncrasies.“He wanted to know … I would take stacks of surveys, and some things that you or I would not be able to take as a human being — he took it all in,” said Dan Beck, who, as an executive at Epic Records, began working with Jackson right before the release of his 1991 album “Dangerous.”“At that time, some of the non-musical issues were surfacing, some of the tabloid stuff — you know, plastic surgery, all that stuff. And we were very, very concerned about these things getting in the way of Michael’s music.”“There was a concern that pop radio would turn on Michael because he was just too weird to be a pop star,” added Jay Smooth, who co-hosts “Think Twice” with Leon Neyakh.As sales of “Dangerous” were plummeting — by his lofty standards — at the beginning of 1993, Jackson set out to change “the weirdo narrative,” as Smooth describes it.“Michael and his team wanted to wash all that away and replace it with the idea that he was not just a generational talent but a historic artist in a lineage with the greats,” said Smooth.As part of that concerted “myth-making campaign,” as Smooth describes it, Jackson gave high-profile performances at Bill Clinton’s presidential inauguration gala and at the American Music Awards, where he was given the International Artist Award of Excellence — an honor that he personally negotiated for with the producers.
