Following their win at the Golden Globes for the soundtrack to the hit film Challengers, Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross were planning on announcing a 2025 tour for Nine Inch Nails. Things have changed in the wake of California fires, though. The band took to social media after speculation on Reddit that the band was planning a tour.
Whenever NIN feels comfortable to make this announcement, we’ll be ready for it.
Bottlerock Napa Valley is hosting one of the most anticipated reunions in all of alternative music. It was announced yesterday that 4 Non Blondes, the band behind the iconic hit “What’s Up?”, will be playing their first official show in 30 years at Bottlerock Napa Valley this year.
Since Perry is “all or nothing” when it comes to music, she’s also been pondering how much further the reunion could go. Potentially, this could include unearthing the band’s never-released follow-up to 1992’s Bigger, Better, Faster, More!
4 Non Blondes will be joined by Green Day, Noah Kahan, and more on 23rd-25th.
At last, our long national nightmare.
As I write to you on this frigid Monday morning, the inbound Expressway reversible lanes are now open. This comes as a shock to many, as although they were expected to reopen today, IDOT originally said that they would have to delay the opening.
To safely remove the barricades and apply new pavement markings, three overnight lane closures will take place:
From 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. the two left lanes on the inbound Kennedy will be closed from Lawrence Avenue to the Edens junction.
Also, the two left lanes on the inbound Edens will be closed from Foster Avenue to the junction.
From 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. the two left lanes on the outbound Kennedy will be closed between Randolph and Ohio streets.
At the same time, the Ontario Street feeder ramp will be closed between Orleans Street and the Kennedy.
From 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. the two left lanes on the inbound Kennedy will be closed between Kimball and Sacramento avenues.
At the same time, the two left lanes on the outbound Kennedy will be closed between Diversey and Fullerton avenues.
