The B-52s And Devo Announce Special Co-Headlining Performances
Two of rock’s most influential and distinctive forces, The B-52s and Devo, will unite for the 2025 “Cosmic De-Evolution Tour”: a co-headlining 11-date run serving as both bands’ continuing concert farewells. Lene Lovich will open the celebratory trek, which currently launches September 24th in Toronto and wraps November 2nd in Houston.
TICKETS: Tickets will be available starting with CITI and AMEX presales (details below) beginning Monday, June 16. Additional presales will run throughout the week ahead of the general onsale beginning Friday June 20 at 10 AM local time at LiveNation.com.
CITI PRESALE: Citi is the official card of the Cosmic De-Evolution Tour*.

“In 2022, I swore I’d never get on a tour bus again” said Fred Schneider “but we were careful to say to our fans that we would still perform in special situations that don’t require all of the awful tour travel. Our Vegas residency is going great, and when we were offered the chance to do a small run of shows with Devo, we all said this is an extraordinary opportunity we couldn’t say no to.”
Added Kate Pierson, “When we first came from Athens to New York City to perform, punk was in full force…and New Wave was right on its tail! We loved all the New Wave groups, including Patti Smith, Talking Heads, Blondie and the Ramones. We also really dug the far-out weirdness of Devo, which seemed very in tuned to our sensibilities. We remember one of our first shows– amazed that David Bowie, Brian Eno, Frank Zappa, Allen Ginsberg, Talking Heads and Blondie all came to see us! When we opened the Mudd Club, we partied with Devo and really hit it off on the dance floor. Later, Brian Eno went onto to produce Devo’s incredible first album…and now we will align again ! So put on your wig hats and Devo bonnets and get ready to party! This is going to be wild.”
Said Cindy Wilson, “When both of our bands performed at the recent SNL 50 concert at Radio City, we started talking and agreed we had to do these shows” says Cindy Wilson. “Believe or not, we’ve never done more than a festival or two together in all this time. This will be amazing and I can’t wait for The B-52s to share these stages with Devo!”
Said Mark Mothersbaugh, “The B-52s had one of the best sounds of any of the bands out there in the late 70’s early 80’s – Rock Lobster is one of my favorite songs – DEVO used to sing it to Booji Boy after DEVO shows. It was either fate or luck or the SNL anniversary that brought us all together to create this amazing chance to go out on tour. All I can say is Cosmic Devolution is REAL!”
Added Gerry Casale, “Devo and The B-52s on tour together! That it took almost 50 years to happen is rather mind-blowing. But better late than never. We each did something right in different ways that withstood the test of time. Now we’re here to prove we can still “bring it” as they say!”
The B-52s— led by original co-founders Fred Schneider (vocals), Kate Pierson (vocals, keyboards), and Cindy Wilson (vocals)—kicked off their extended goodbye run back in 2022. Since that time, they have electrified select venues and large music festivals across the U.S. and even established a Las Vegas residency at The Venetian Theatre, powered by their colorful, danceable iconic classics that have made a seismic impact on New Wave and music history. As they prepare for a 2025 farewell tour, a high-profile documentary and their first official book, The B-52s undoubtedly stand poised to inspire and influence future generations.
This curtain-call timing overlaps with Devo, who are also fronted by three of their original members: Mark Mothersbaugh (vocals, keyboards, guitar), Gerald Casale (vocals, bass, keyboards), and Bob Mothersbaugh (guitar, vocals). In 2023, the fellow New Wave icons (“Whip It,” “Uncontrollable Urge”) kicked off their own farewell tour, 50 Years of De-Evolution, paired with a compilation album of the same name. That jaunt has since been extended and continues through the summer and fall of 2025.

Stray Kids Announce 2027 World Tour ‘RUN IT’ Across North America, Europe and the UK
Global superstars Stray Kids today announced their highly anticipated 2027 World Tour ‘RUN IT,’ featuring stadium shows across North America, Europe and the UK next year. The tour kicks off Sunday, May 16 at Lumen Field in Seattle before continuing to Vancouver, Santa Clara, San Diego, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Chicago, East Rutherford, Paris, London, Munich, Barcelona and more, finally wrapping next summer at San Siro Stadium in Milan.
As previously announced, Lee Know will not participate in the North American and European legs of the tour as he will begin his mandatory military service ahead of those dates. While he fulfills his service, the remaining seven members will continue the tour, bringing the full-scale Stray Kids live experience to fans around the world.
The announcement follows Stray Kids’ recent series of special ‘STRAYCITY’ performances across Latin America this fall, which brought the group to Buenos Aires, Bogotá and Mexico City, with support from NEXZ, Bad Milk, Kei Linch, K4OS, Cocho, Andrés Obregón and RENEE, with lineups varying by city. The group also headlined Rock in Rio, making history as both the first K-pop act to headline the festival and the first K-pop act ever to perform at the event.
These milestones build on Stray Kids’ headline appearances at BST Hyde Park in London and Lollapalooza Chicago in 2024, and their record-breaking Stray Kids World Tour <dominATE> that ended in 2025. The tour spanned 56 shows across 35 regions and played iconic venues around the world, including sold out multi-night runs at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, Citi Field in New York, Globe Life Field in Arlington, Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, and Stade de France in Paris.
Stray Kids World Tour ‘RUN IT’ supports the group’s latest release, THIS & THAT, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. With this milestone, Stray Kids became the first act in history to debut their first nine charting albums at No. 1. This achievement further extended their record as the K-pop act with the most No. 1 albums in Billboard 200 history, as well as the group with the most Billboard 200 No. 1 albums of the 21st century.
In 2026, Stray Kids also earned six new RIAA certifications across their catalog, including Platinum certification for “God’s Menu” and Gold certifications for KARMA, “LALALALA,” “Chk Chk Boom,” “S-Class” and “CASE 143,” further cementing their position as one of the leading forces in global music.

Fall Out Boy Announces 2027 Twilight of the Punks Headline World Tour & Returns With Highly Anticipated New Single “ACES”
GRAMMY® Award-nominated, multi-platinum rock band Fall Out Boy is gearing up for a massive 2027 with the announcement of their Twilight of the Punks global headline tour, the biggest of their career, with 36 dates performing at stadiums and arenas across Europe, the UK, and North America in 2027. The announcement comes alongside the band’s long-awaited return with a brand-new song “ACES” which marks their first new original single in over three years – now available HERE via Atlantic Records and joined by an official music video HERE.
Promoted by Live Nation, the Twilight of the Punks Tour kicks off May 17 at Prague’s O2 Arena, launching a 15-date European and UK leg before heading to North America in July. Spanning 11 countries, the European and UK run will take the band to arenas in Budapest, Milan, Madrid, Lyon, Brussels, and Mönchengladbach, followed by stops in Glasgow, Dublin, and Manchester. Highlights include a massive June 5 performance at London’s Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, with additional shows in Amsterdam, Paris, and Berlin before the leg wraps June 13 at Atlas Arena in Łódź, Poland. A Day To Remember and Neck Deep will join as special guests on all European and UK dates.
The tour continues in North America on July 13, with Fall Out Boy bringing their electrifying live show to stadiums across the US and Canada for a massive 21-date headlining run, kicking off at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas, and wrapping August 26 at Providence Park in Portland, Oregon. The stadium trek will see the band take over some of North America’s most iconic venues, including Toronto’s Rogers Stadium, Boston’s Fenway Park, New York’s Citi Field, and Los Angeles’ Dodger Stadium. Among the most anticipated stops is a monumental show at Chicago’s legendary Soldier Field, marking a major career milestone as the band returns to the city where it all began for a landmark hometown stadium performance. The Offspring, Good Charlotte, and The Story So Far will join as special guests on most U.S. dates.
This year also marks a major milestone as Fall Out Boy celebrates 25 years as a band, and they are kicking off their highly-anticipated next chapter with the release of “ACES,”produced and mixed by longtime collaborator Neil Avron, giving fans a taste of what’s to come. The new track channels the raw energy, infectious hooks, and unmistakable spirit of the band’s early days, delivering a nostalgic nod to the sound that helped establish the band as one of pop-punk’s most influential acts. In tandem with the song’s release, the band also unveiled the official music video, directed by Brendan Walter – WATCH HERE.
Fall Out Boy began teasing fans just ahead of Halloween, sparking widespread speculation and excitement surrounding a major announcement. The mystery began with a cryptic Instagram post welcoming fans to the “Twilight Town Mall,” followed by the transformation of the band’s website into an interactive shopping directory, complete with an arcade, photo studio, food court, and more. The elaborate rollout quickly ignited a frenzy of excitement and chatter among fans worldwide, with anticipation continuing to build last Wednesday when the “Two Quarters Arcade” launched on the site. Created in partnership with Brooklyn creative agency LOOP, the virtual arcade featured a live, interactive claw machine that gave fans from all over the world the chance to remotely control a real-life claw machine and win a Fall Out Boy alien plush. The activation sparked an overwhelming response within hours of launching, drawing nearly a million site visits and generating an astonishing 6.1 million minutes of watch time, with so much traffic that it temporarily crashed the servers. As a thank you for the incredible enthusiasm, the band is bringing the claw machine back for a limited time today, giving fans another chance to play and win by visiting twoquartersarcade.com/.
