It’s been more than three years since Joe, Kevin and Nick put out a new album. But there’s a fresh one on the horizon, likely arriving early next year – and the Jonas Brothers are gearing up for its release with a worldwide tour that just launched with an instant sell-out at Radio City Music Hall.
They weren’t expected on the West Coast until spring or summer, seeing as the rest of their dates this month and next are in Russia and the Far East. But that just changed: As a counterpart to their NYC performance, the trio has added two shows at the Pantages Theatre in Hollywood, Nov. 27-28.
“We were completely humbled and blown away by the fan response when we announced our New York show,” the trio says in a statement. “The energy at Radio City was so incredible; we just couldn’t wait to do another U.S. show.”
Tickets, $45-$86, go on sale Saturday, Nov. 3, at 10 a.m., with a fan club pre-sale and VIP packages available from Halloween at 10 a.m. until Friday at 10 p.m.
Late last week Taylor Swift announced dates for her extensive 45-city tour next year, behind her instant million-selling fourth album Red. Most venues haven’t been revealed yet, but the country-pop sensation will return to Southern California in summer, playing San Diego on Aug. 15 and Los Angeles on Aug. 19-20.
Best guess about venues would be Staples Center and Valley View Casino Center, formerly the San Diego Sports Arena. But there’s talk that Swift will step up to stadiums this time out. In the meantime, look for her alongside LL Cool J as co-host of the next Grammy nominations concert, airing live Dec. 5 on CBS from Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena, instead of one of L.A. Live’s venues as in previous years.
Rick Ross, Meek Mill and Kendrick Lamar top the lineup for Power 106′s next Cali Christmas, Dec. 14 at Gibson Amphitheatre. Also slated to perform are 2 Chainz, Big Sean, the Weeknd and “surprise guests.”
Could Public Enemy be one of them? They play the night before, Dec. 13, at Club Nokia, capping a package dubbed the Hip Hop Gods Classic Tourfest Revue, also featuring X-Clan, Monie Love, Schoolly D and more, $29.50-$48.50, on sale Friday at 10 a.m.
Tickets for Cali Christmas, on the other hand, initially go on sale exclusively through Power 106′s pre-sale on Thursday from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. Check the site for the password. The general on-sale is set for Friday at 10 a.m. Prices: $45-$125.
Alicia Keys, Amy Grant, Herb Alpert, John Legend, Katy Perry, Vince Gill and more will help pay tribute to one of the all-time great songwriters during “A Celebration of Carole King and Her Music,” Dec. 4 at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood (formerly the Kodak Theatre). Tickets for the show, a benefit for Paul Newman’s Painted Turtle Camp, are $50-$250 and available now via the venue’s website.
Finally, for now, Clay Aiken is coming back to Orange County, bringing his Joyful Noise Tour to City National Grove of Anaheim on Dec. 21. Tickets, $39.50-$69.50, go on sale Friday at noon, as do two rock-oriented shows: DSB, a tribute to Journey, plus the Petty Breakers, saluting Tom Petty, Jan. 12, $20 … and another visit from perennial favorite Styx, Feb. 6, $45-$85.
Also, Howie Mandel’s Nov. 30 performance at the venue has been canceled. Refunds at point of purchase.
