Sure, the 2005 version of Panic! At The Disco is long gone, but the face of that band is still the man people pay money to see. Panic! will be headlining Summerfest 2016 on July 9. Weezer is listed as the co-headline act. Summerfest tickets for that date will be available after January 22.
What can we say about album number five from this band? Rolling Stone says that the music is “Channeling Sinatra, with non-awful results.”

As for Weezer the band has just released “The White Album.”  This is the fourth color coded album title for a band that has been going strong since 1994. The album concept came from Rivers Cuomo’s experiences in and around Venice and Santa Monica. He also took inspiration from The Beach Boys.

 

The Green Bay Packers are on the way to Arizona.  The NFL 2015 playoffs started this past weekend, and the Packers looked dominant against the Washington Redskins. The first quarter of the game didn’t look so great for Rodgers and Co. The team was forced into a safety, and the Redskins kicked a field goal after receiving the post safety punt. Washington was up 11-0 before Green Bay kicked it into high gear. The Packers went on to score seventeen unanswered points, before Washington scored once again. Still, the momentum went to Green Bay, and the team took care of business, with a final score of 35-18. If you are looking for Packers vs Cardinals playoff tickets, look no further. If the Packers manage to win the next game, they will be playing in the NFC Championship game.

Summerfest 2016 will feature Luke Bryan on July 7. In the dead of winter, country music fans now have something to look forward to. It’s another country music show added to the ten day music festival on Milwaukee’s lakefront.  Luke Bryan’s latest album titled “Kill The Lights” is one of country music’s biggest hits right now.

His latest effort came on the heels of “Spring Break…Checkin’ out” which also came out last year. Just don’t call Luke Bryan’s music “Bro Country.” Some may call him the father of that genre, singing about the same four or five things in every tune, but he’s made it known that he’s slightly offended by that term.  His fans don’t seem to mind.  They love him just the same.

The Green Bay Packers are in the 2015 NFL playoffs. After what could easily be labeled as a season of ups and downs, the Packers head to Washington for an afternoon game this coming Sunday. The Redskins are a team on the rise, winning seven of their last ten games. The Packers have struggled since losing to the Broncos in game seven. For Packers playoff tickets, check our listings.

For our Green Bay’s NFL North opponents the Vikings, they face the Seahawks. Many fans think that Green Bay would be better off playing the Redskins on the road, rather than face Seattle at Lambeau Field. We’ll see how that works out by Sunday evening. The Packers have been struggling to put together a strong game on the offensive side. There is no indication that they will improve by leaps and bounds by this coming Sunday night. Still, when you have Aaron Rodgers at quarterback, anything can happen. 

Adele comes to Minneapolis this summer. After a long wait, the singer has announced a 2016 tour that includes two shows at the Xcel Energy Center on July 5 and 6. Adele tickets for those pair of shows are available now. Ticket King can get you into the event!

Adele underwent surgery in 2011, to repair her vocal cords. Since that time, she’s recovered and released an album that managed to sell into the millions in just days. One could easily say that she’s the hottest artist in music right now.

After the pair of shows in Minneapolis, Adele will perform in Chicago for three nights. The United Center sold out in just minutes, which is no surprise. After Chicago, it’s off to Denver for a pair of performances, then two shows at the Rodgers Arena in Vancouver. Adele sold out six shows at the Staples Center in Los Angeles! Fans are hoping that her voice holds out. 

Kenny Chesney comes to Miller Park on June 18, 2016. He’s happy to hit the road this summer, and the tour is titled “Spread the Love.” This tour is just a bit different, as there are not as many show dates booked when compared to other tours. He’s got one date in April, two in May, and just two in June. More dates may be booked, but Kenny has no need to sandwich show after show into his 2016 summer. Kenny Chesney Milwaukee tickets are available through our Ticket King website.

As with most shows this summer, Kenny will have a large “Sand Bar” in front of the stage. He loves it when his fans stand around in front of the stage, and enjoy his music. He’s a bit like the Jimmy Buffett of country music. It’s all about having a good time in the summer sun. Miranda Lambert will be on the road with Kenny. Let’s not forget that Chesney was touring in 2015. He played nearly sixty shows last year, giving his tour the rank of “top five” in the country.  This tour will feature music from all sixteen albums, if you put aside his Holiday disk titled “All I Want for Christmas.”  

How many hit songs has Chesney written?  On top of all that, he’s been awarded “Country Music Twenty eight number one sons, and forty top ten. Entertainer of the Year” four times in the past eleven years! His second album (Titled All I Need to Know) produced a top ten hit song. It was titled Fall in Love. By the third disk, Chesney was on his way. By the year 2000, Chesney had a “Greatest Hits” album, with a few new tracks, along with all his best songs.  He’s toured fourteen times since 2001, and fans will love seeing him perform at Miller Park, Milwaukee.    

Do Packers fans think that any of the upcoming games are going to be easy? After what the team went through in the past six weeks, I would think that they have all come to understand that this Green Bay team is still struggling. All one has to do is look at the offensive line if they want to understand where some of the trouble lies. Injuries upon injuries were heaped upon the team. By this past Thursday night, four of the five starters on the line were out. That sent Rodgers running for his life, and the Packers wide-outs were lucky to see any passes coming their way during the first half of the game. 

Packers Starters Able to Practice This Week

There is good news for the upcoming game at Lambeau Field.  All but one of the starters on the offensive line were able to practice today.  If the starting offensive line can give Rodgers time, the receivers just might get open. (However, that’s been an issue even when he’s been able to sit in the pocket.)   For Packers tickets to this game, check our site.

Will the “Hail Mary” touchdown pass from last week spark the team into high gear?  Sometimes an amazing finish can lead the way to greatness down the road. If ever there were a great finish to a terrible game, the 61 yard TD pass after the end of regulation fits that description. The home crowd will certainly be fired up, and the team might just carry that energy over to the field.  Dallas comes to town after slipping past the Redskins on Monday night. Their backup quarterback looked pretty good, and Jason Witten will be tough to beat in the middle of the field. Dez Bryant caught a 42 yard pass late in the game against the Redskins, and nabbed a pair of catches on the next series. Those will be the two biggest threats against the Packers defense this Sunday.         

Bruce Springsteen is coming back to Milwaukee! “The Boss” will be at the BMO Harris Bradley Center on March 3. Springsteen tickets vary in price, depending on where you want to sit. This blockbuster show will raise the roof on a Thursday night.

Did you know that Springsteen has been performing for fifty years? His spark came from watching the classic singers like Elvis Presley and Frank Sinatra. What did it for Bruce was watching the Beatles take to the airwaves in 1965. He spent a few bucks on a guitar that year, and hit the local Elks Lodge. Pretty soon, a pair of talent scouts spotted Bruce at an event, and they knew he had what it took to make it big.

The last album released by Bruce Springsteen came out in 2015. It is titled “The Ties That Bind” and it’s complete with all the best songs, outtakes, and DVD’s. Rest assured, he will be performing songs from this disk on the upcoming tour. 

The Green Bay Packers will be on the road for three of the last five regular season games in 2015. Things haven’t gone well for the Packers, having lost four of the last five games. Will the Packers find a way to get back to winning? Their first test will be on the road this Thursday night at Ford Field.  It’s Green Bay at Detroit!

It’s been a season of ups and downs for Green Bay.  They put together six straight wins to start the 2015 season, and some fans felt that the team was a Super Bowl prospect. Fast forward another five weeks, and the Pack find themselves at 7-4, and out of the top spot in the NFC Central. Did that first lost to the Broncos reveal a weak spot in the Packers offense? It sure seems so. What would the team record be had Jordy Nelson stayed healthy? We don’t have an answer for either of these questions.  All we know, as “arm chair” quarterbacks, is that the team needs a new spark.

After the Thursday Night Football game at Detroit, the team will play host to the Dallas Cowboys. Dallas lost Tony Romo for the year, just after he came back from breaking his collar bone. From there, the team heads to Oakland to take on the Raiders on 12/20. The team will travel to Arizona to face the Cardinals on 12/27. Their final regular season game is on January 3, against the Minnesota Vikings. Will both teams be playing for the top spot in the NFC Central division? We think yes.  

Twenty One Pilots is coming to the BMO Harris Pavilion in Milwaukee. The show date is set for July 30th. We carry Twenty One Pilots tickets for all shows. The band released “Blurryface” this past spring. Tour dates start with England this winter, and end in August, at Madison Square Garden.

The band first released two albums without a label. They garnered huge interest after a sold out show in their home town of Columbus Ohio. That was in spring of 2012.  They slowly rose through the ranks of popularity for the next twelve months, ultimately performing as the opening act for Fall Out Boy.  2014 is when the band saw a surge in popularity. They were booked on the outdoor festival circuit, along with a stint at the 2014 MTV Music awards.
By the start of 2015, fans were looking for another great effort, as they released Blurryface to very receptive audiences. Tyler Joseph and Josh Dun are making the most of their opportunity, and playing as many shows as they can, before the fickle tastes of fans of Alternative Hip Hop move on to the next big thing.
