While appearing on Piers Morgan Uncensored, Sharon addressed the Waters comments shortly after Ozzy's death and had a few choice words for the former Pink Floyd leader.
Ever since drummer Josh Freese was let go by Foo Fighters back in May (two years after he replaced the late Taylor Hawkins), he – as well as fans – have been asking one basic question: “Why?”
The news comes from Brian May's wife, Anita Dobson, who recently told the "Mirror" that there won't be any world tours in the band's future.
We told you last month that Guns N' Roses was embarking on a 2026 North American tour, but we didn't tell you who was opening for them (because we didn't know). Yesterday, the band revealed who would provide support for their 2026 trek.
Gene Simmons has always been quick to speak his mind, but it's not often he walks something he's said back.
Sharon Osbourne says that the night before Ozzy died, he asked her to kiss him and hug him tight. She also says he was incredibly happy in his final weeks because of the Back to the Beginning concert.
As if announcing their "Dos Amigos Tour" with Dwight Yoakam last month wasn't enough, ZZ Top has doubled down, announcing a second tour to run alongside that one. Yesterday the Top revealed "The Big One!" tour, which adds 19 more dates to their already busy 2026.
We're a quarter of the way through the new millennium, so Pollstar thought it time to tally up the biggest live draws in music. Yesterday, the site posted the "Top 25 Most Popular Touring Artists of the Millennium," and if you're automatically putting Taylor Swift or the Rolling Stones at the top, think again.
Jack Osbourne has just announced that he and wife Aree are expecting their second child together; he also revealed that dad Ozzy Osbourne was told he was going to be a grandfather again shortly before his passing back in July.
Coming off the glow of being honored this past weekend at the Kennedy Center Honors ceremony, Gene felt it necessary to speak out on the passing of KISS co-founder and guitarist Ace Frehley.
Stage fright can be quite concerning for a singer, but according to I Prevail singer Eric Vanlerberghe, his previous bouts with it have not come from playing to their biggest audiences. In fact, as he tells Full Metal Jackie, it's quite the opposite.
Turns out we were right. Last week we told you that Aerosmith seemed to be teasing a collaboration with Yungblud and country superstar Lainey Wilson.
The songs are the first new material from GN'R since 2023, when they released "Perhaps" and "The General" a few months apart from each other. The band initially teased these two new tracks for a Dec. 2 release, but they came out this morning (Dec. 4) instead.
Avenged Sevenfold have released new music as part of a video game tie-in that allows players to hear it before anyone else.
Could Lainey Wilson be taking her skills into the rock world (at least temporarily)? Aerosmith made a rather intriguing IG post yesterday, showing Steven Tyler, Joe Perry and Yungblud (who just collaborated on the joint EP "One More Time" ) with the caption "A 'Wild Woman' feature coming soon.
Another pepper is breaking loose! Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea will release his debut solo album next year on Nonesuch Records, but it’s not what you think.
Judas Priest have announced their first tour dates of 2026. The Faithkeepers tour will see the tireless heavy metal legends perform in 10 European cities in July and August. You can see the complete schedule on their website.
Evanescence have announced a massive world tour for 2026 and they're bringing along some heavy-hitting opening acts. The tour will be Evanescence's first as a headlining act in nearly four years.
Back in the old days, you held a celebration with fireworks. In 2025, those archaic means have been replaced with high-tech drone shows.
Nikki Sixx and Mötley Crüe were serious ten years ago when they called it their "Farewell Tour." As the bassist explained to Portland, Oregon's "KPTV Fox 12," the band was done and they were "cool with it." But music fans weren't done with them.
