transformed from dreamboat to daredevil when he scaled the Empire State Building.Well, at least 18 floors of it.The Oscar-winning actor’s career reached new heights at the New York landmark as he pulled off the awe-inspiring stunt to announce his band Thirty Seconds to Mars’ upcoming “Seasons” world tour.Their fearless frontman said of his Empire State stunt, “The building is a testament of all the things that can be done in the world if we put our minds to it, which is largely the inspiration behind our most recent album, ‘It’s the End of the World but It’s a Beautiful Day.’ ”Leto — who is the first person to ever legally climb to the top of the Empire State Building, according to building officials — scaled from floors 86 to 104 on the east side of the landmark. His 20-minute hike took the “Dallas Buyers Club” actor some 1,300 feet up in the sky.After a performance at the top of the Empire State Building, Leto spoke about his bucket-list adventure on the “Today” show.“I was more excited than nervous, to tell you the truth,” he said.

amid his battle with peptic ulcer disease.“We’re gonna come back stronger than ever in March,” Zandt, 72, told People. “It was a very, very intense first six months of the tour — maybe our most intense ever.” “And so we’re gonna come back with that same intensity, and it’s gonna be great,” Zandt added. According to the guitarist, the band’s enduring popularity onstage has been “wonderful.”“Well, it’s wonderful, isn’t it,” Zandt gushed to the outlet.

“Now and Then”arrives like a gift from that glorious Abbey Road in the sky on Thursday — despite the fact that John Lennon and George Harrison died in 1980 and 2001, respectively, leaving surviving Beatles Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr to finish the long-buried track on the right side of the dirt.And if you think that it’s the result of some magical mystery trickery of AI defiling the sacred ground that is the Beatles back catalog, thankfully, you’d be wrong.While “the last Beatles song” certainly benefits from advancements in technology that allowed it to finally be released — five decades after Lennon wrote and recorded the demo at his Dakota residence on New York’s Central Park West in the ’70s — “Now and Then” is a real Beatles tune that feels like it somehow got stuck in some mop-topped time warp before the “Imagine” singer was murdered in 1980. It’s a nostalgic trip back to the Baby Boomer glory days of yesteryear.

“Yesterday” all over again.That’s because there will be a brand new Beatles song — yes, you read that right — coming here, there and everywhere in just one week. On Thursday, it was announced that “Now and Then” — featuring all four members of the Fab Four — will be released on Nov.

hit Shea Stadium on Aug. 18, 1983.But it was a playful wrestling match with drummer Stewart Copeland that caused singer-bassist Sting a painful pre-show injury before the trio took the stage at the former Queens home of the New York Mets 40 years ago.

“The White Album.”“John and Yoko had got together and that was bound to have an effect on the dynamics of the group,” McCartney explained on the podcast “McCartney: A Life in Lyrics.” “Things like Yoko being literally in the middle of the recording session [were] something you had to deal with.”“The idea was that if John wanted this to happen, then it should happen. There’s no reason why not,” continued the “Yellow Submarine” performer. “Anything that disturbs us, is disturbing.”The British vocalist/songwriter would not let the subject be, adding that other members of the iconic group found the “disturbance” annoying.

Tool frontman Maynard James Keenan has a busy year planned.The progressive metal band, already on a nationwide tour supporting their 2019 album ‘Fear Inoculum,’ just announced an additional 20 concerts with special guest Elder in January and February 2024.That includes two huge back-to-back gigs at New York City’s Madison Square Garden on Friday, Jan. 12 and Saturday, Jan.

From My Home to Your” as “your favorite rock star with a bitch of a bellyache” as the “Glory Days” singer continues to deal with peptic ulcer disease.Springsteen & The E Street Band were forced to postpone the remainder of their 2023 tour dates due to his illness last month, and in his latest update, Springsteen got candid about how it’s affected his life. “Let me take a moment and thank my fans affected by our postponed shows for their understanding,” he said.

its first residency in Sin City on Friday night, the Irish icons dropped the new single “Atomic City” — and its video — earlier in the same day.Hey, they didn’t become one of the biggest rock bands of all time without learning a thing or two about promotional synergy.And as they prepare to go Vegas — where no respectable band would have dared to go back in the day when they ruled rock — “Atomic City” finds the quintessentially earnest quartet coming out swinging and swaggering rather than taking themselves so seriously.“I’m ready for bright lights…I came here for the fight/I’m front row in Las Vegas/And there’s a big one on tonight,” sings Bono in a not-so-subtle nod to “U2: UV Achtung Baby Live At Sphere,” their Sept. 29- Dec.

The 1975 are touring in 2023 — but some prices to see Matty Healy’s group live this fall just might make you think you time traveled to 1975.Based on our findings, the band, which just kicked off their ‘Still… At Their Very Best Tour’ with special guest Dora Jar has some tickets going for as low as $14 before fees on Vivid Seats available.To be fair, that price is a bit of an outlier — most other shows have seats starting in the $20 to $100 range before fees.Still, that’s a steal to see Matty, Adam, Ross and George before they go on an “indefinite hiatus” after the tour — although Healy confirmed they’re not breaking up at a recent show according to Rolling Stone.And yes, they’ll be coming to New York and New Jersey.On this run of shows, the “Somebody Else” rockers will stop into Newark, NJ’s Prudential Center on Nov. 7 and New York City’s Madison Square Garden on Nov.

cellphones, raunchy sex toys, a massive cheese wheel and even the ashes of a fan’s mother during live performances.But one band decided to take matters into their own hands and start their show with a public service announcement — telling their fans that proper etiquette actually starts before the concert even begins.And that includes showering.Dethklok — a death-metal group that originated as a fictional band from the Adult Swim animated TV series “Metalocalypse” — showed a video to the audience that urged people to be mindful of their personal hygiene at concerts.A clip of the video was posted to TikTok and has garnered 3.2 million views and 563,7000 likes.“Send this to your smelly friends,” user @rawrxdkev wrote in the video description.The video shows the Adult Swim character Facebones spinning around and giving a melodramatic speech about how to properly behave at Dethklok’s shows.“Etiquette is a French word that means, ‘how to not act like a stupid a – – hole!” the terrifying animated face screamed at the crowd.Facebones started off with concert hygiene, asking fans if they ever go to a show and stand next to a person who “smells like BO and old shoes and s – – t” — and if they don’t know what he’s talking about, that person “might be you.”“Take a shower at some point in your life and THEN come to the show,” the animated logo exclaimed.Send this to your smelly friends #concert #ettiquette #ettiquettetips #hygiene #raves #concerts #festivals #babymetalworldtour2023 #concerttok A 2021 study revealed that listening to metal music increases BO by 87% — and fans are glad the issue is finally being addressed.“It’s crazy that it’s gotten to this point but at least they did it in the best way possible,” one person
