Two titans of New Wave, the B-52’s and Devo, will team up this fall for the co-headlining Cosmic De-Evolution Tour.
Although the B-52’s embarked on a farewell tour three years ago — they’ve since confined themselves to a Las Vegas residency — the idea of joining the “Whip It” troupe on the road proved too enticing to ignore. The two bands recently linked up (alongside Fred Armisen) at the all-star SNL 50 concert and discussed the venture.

This post contains spoilers for the limited series Sirens, now streaming on Netflix.
Maybe I should have known that Sirens was going to be confusing when its main character licked a stranger’s neck.
The licking happens late in the first of five episodes, created by Molly Smith Metzler, based on her play Elemeno Pea.

When MTV debuted on August 1, 1981, it ironically started with the music video for the Buggles' hit "Video Killed the Radio Star." MTV knew it wasn't killing radio, but if its opening salvo was to address the changing state of pop media, along with its move from radio to television, then it at least knew what function MTV was going to serve moving forward. Those early years of the network were a Wild West of experimentation, with punk bands, New Wave bands, and bizarre novelty acts rushing to fill the suddenly open landscape of 24-hour-a-day music programming. And it seemed that, at the time, MTV would take anything. It had a lot of airtime to fill, and not every band was yet on board the music video wagon.
The first hour of MTV was rounded out by Pat Benatar's "You Better Run," Rod Stewart's "She Won't Dance With Me,...

Welcome to this week’s review of Aew: Dynamite, which was broadcast from the Roy Wilkins Auditorium in St. Paul, Mn. We’ve got Excalibur, Tony Schiavone, and Taz on commentary, so let’s get into the review!
Match #1: Kenny Omega def. Blake Christian The following is courtesy of allelitewrestling.com:
Omega used a side headlock takeover. Christian flipped off Omega. Kenny lit up Blake with blistering chops. Blake blasted Kenny with a dropkick. Blake gouged the eyes of Omega and then speared Omega on the apron. Blake jumped through the ropes with an inverted tope, wiping out Kenny. Lee jumped on the apron and Kenny punched him down. Kenny nailed Blake with a snap dragon suplex, followed up with another. Kenny hit a neck breaker and then the V Trigger. Omega planted Blake with the One-Winged Angel and picked up the pinfall victory!
My Score: 3 out of 5 Match #2: Kyle Fletcher def.

If you thought all the big musical SNL50 moments had already happened at the Radio City Music Hall Homecoming Concert on Friday, were you wrong. The proper Saturday Night Live 50th anniversary special kicked off with the iconic Paul Simon duetting with Sabrina Carpenter on Simon & Garfunkel’s “Homeward Bound.” Watch the performance below.

Simon noted he’d last song the song on SNL with George Harrison in 1976. “I was not born then,” joked Carpenter. “And neither were my parents.”
Simon may largely be retired from live performances, but it makes sense that he’d pick up the guitar for SNL50. He’s a close friend of creator Lorne Michaels, and has served as musical guest 13 times in addition to hosting on four occasions.

“Apparently, there’s been some confusion,” Fallon said. “This is just a concert. We’re not giving out any awards tonight. So, I just want to make sure that everyone knows that.”
As Fallon clarified the show’s purpose, Hanks and Wilson were seen in the background exiting Radio City Music Hall, causing laughter among the audience.

SNL’s 50th anniversary concert became a dance party once again when Robyn took the stage with David Byrne to perform “Dancing On My Own.”
The pair wore matching dark khaki suits (fitting slightly better than Byrne’s usual style) and danced exuberantly with the crowd bouncing along — the kind of performance that definitely required wireless mics.
After “Dancing On My Own,” which Robyn first performed on Saturday Night Live on December 10th, 2011, the pair segued to The Talking Heads’ “This Must Be the Place (Naive Melody).” Byrne has made frequent appearances on SNL over the years: by himself, as a member of The Talking Heads, and as a special guest during John Mulaney’s “Airport Sushi” sketch.
The SNL50 concert also featured performances from Nirvana with Post Malone, Jack White, Miley Cyrus, Eddie Vedder, Fugees, The B-52s and Devo, plus Lady Gaga sang “Dick in the Box.”

The Culps are back to catch us up on the past 20 years in music (and more recent music feuds) during SNL50: The Homecoming Concert.
During Friday’s SNL50: The Homecoming Concert, alums Will Ferrell and Ana Gasteyer reprised the hilarious music-teaching couple they portrayed on the NBC sketch comedy show from 1996 to 2002, complete with a cover of Kendrick Lamar’s ‘Not Like Us’.
In addition to Britney Spears’ ‘Work Bitch’, Sam Smith and Kim Petras’ ‘Unholy’, Megan Thee Stallion’s ‘Body’ and Chappell Roan’s ‘Good Luck Babe’, the duo gave their rendition of Lamar’s diss track against Drake.

During Friday’s SNL50: The Homecoming Concert, alums Will Ferrell and Ana Gasteyer reprised the hilarious music-teaching couple they portrayed on the NBC sketch comedy show from 1996 to 2002, complete with a cover of Kendrick Lamar’s ‘Not Like Us’.
In addition to Britney Spears’ ‘Work Bitch’, Sam Smith and Kim Petras’ ‘Unholy’, Megan Thee Stallion’s ‘Body’ and Chappell Roan’s ‘Good Luck Babe’, the duo gave their rendition of Lamar’s diss track against Drake.

It takes a lot for the Fugees to show up to a concert, let alone on time. But Ms. Lauryn Hill and Wyclef Jean appeared as scheduled for SNL50 on Friday night, where they ran through a four-song set that included performances of “Lost Ones,” “Ex-Factor,” “911,” and “Killing Me Softly.” The duo were backed by the legendary Roots crew.

In one of the night’s standout moments, the Saturday Night Live 50th anniversary concert paid tribute to the legacy of The Lonely Island with an epic medley celebrating some of Andy Samberg, Jorma Taccone, and Akiva Schaffer’s greatest contributions to SNL, kicking off first with Lady Gaga’s rendition of “Dick in a Box.”
Well, first Samberg attempted a cover of “Shallow” from A Star Is Born (complete with Jackson Maine wig) before Gaga shut him down. Then, since Justin Timberlake wasn’t around, she offered to sing “Dick in a Box” in his place.
After a bit, though, Chris Parnell entered the scene to duet with Samberg on “Lazy Sunday,” which then led to Bad Bunny performing “I Just Had Sex,” Eddie Vedder subbing in for Michael Bolton on “Captain Jack Sparrow,” and T-Pain reprising his feature on “I’m On a Boat.”

Years later, Lady Gaga is poking fun at those pesky rumors with an era-appropriate pop culture banger.
The 14-time Grammy winner joined Andy Samberg onstage Friday at Radio City Music Hall for SNL50: The Homecoming Concert, where they began performing her A Star Is Born track “Shallow” before deciding to do a selection more in Samberg’s “vocal range.”
“There is one song, but Justin [Timberlake’s] not here to do his parts,” he said, to which Gaga replied, “Andy, don’t be a b*tch. I’ll do it with you.”
The pair then launched into a performance of The Lonely Island’s “Dick in a Box” from the 2006 SNL Christmas episode.

Eddie Vedder was one of the early performers at Saturday Night Live’s 50th anniversary concert, but he certainly made his mark with an unforgettable two-song set featuring a cover of Tom Petty’s “The Waiting” and a nod to Elvis Costello’s infamous “Radio Radio” moment on SNL.
The Pearl Jam frontman opened with “The Waiting,” a tribute that doubled as an in memoriam for SNL legends lost over the years, including Gilda Radner, Phil Hartman, Chris Farley, Norm Macdonald, and John Belushi.
From there, Vedder paid homage to Costello’s iconic 1977 SNL performance, in which Costello abruptly stopped playing “Less Than Zero” and instead launched into “Radio Radio”. Vedder recreated the moment before tearing into a blistering rendition of Pearl Jam’s “Corduroy.”

How do you possibly follow Miley Cyrus and Bad Bunny during the SNL50: The Homecoming Concert? With a classic sketch character.
SNL alum Bill Murray graced the stage Friday at Radio City Music Hall in New York City as he reprised his smooth-talking character Nick the Lounge Singer (aka Nick Valentine) from the NBC sketch comedy show, accompanied by Paul Shaffer on piano.
Following a humorous monologue about “an increasing acceptance of different types of families, different types of relationships,” before introducing “three of the most beautiful ladies a man could ever hope to meet.”
Murray, who created the character during his 1977-1980 run as an SNL castmember, was then joined by fellow alums Ana Gasteyer, Maya Rudolph and Cecily Strong in ’60s chic backup singer attire, accompanying him with a performance of Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell’s “You’re All I Need to Get By.”

Jimmy Fallon had the honor to kick things off at the SNL50: The Homecoming Concert in celebration of NBC’s late-night sketch show.
Fallon took the Radio City Music Hall stage Friday alongside The Roots to pay tribute to The Blues Brothers, the sketch starring John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd that inspired the 1980 film and a sequel in 1998 titled Blues Brothers 2000.
Following the performance, Fallon revealed he was “out of breath” and thanked the “collection of talent” who attended the homage.
“I thought this was sweet. Where you’re seated is based on how much Lorne [Michaels] loves you,” Fallon joked.
Fallon continued, “I was so honored when the assistant to Lorne’s assistant, asked me to host tonight.”
The Tonight Show host then took a jab at himself, answering why he was hosting the special, saying, “Well, it’s award season, which means I got nothing going on right now.

Old friends are sometimes the best (and funniest) friends. At least it looked that way Wednesday night when Jimmy Fallon welcomed a trio of his Saturday Night Live peers to the Studio 6B set of The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon in New York for some skits, laughs and shared memories.
The reunion was for good reason. The alums gathered just days ahead of the much anticipated SNL50: The Anniversary Special airing in primetime on NBC and Peacock on Sunday. And they showed off some of the skills they honed during their respective runs on the iconic sketch show by participating in a “Tonight Show Joke Off,” a riff on SNL’s “Weekend Update” segment during which they battled it out for the best punchlines.
Fey and Poehler, who have a Restless Leg tour scheduled for spring and summer, then stuck around to join Fallon in the chairs for a chat about the upcoming special.

The nominations for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame’s Class of 2025 have been announced, and it’s certainly an interesting and downright random mix, with eight of the shortlisted artists — arena-rockers Bad Company, Southern rock revivalists the Black Crowes, rock ‘n’ roll dance-craze king Chubby Checker, late blues-rock belter Joe Cocker, punk/new wave superstar Billy Idol, Latin pop/rock band Maná, Dirty South hip-hop pioneers OutKast, and jam band Phish — being first-time nominees.
Perhaps the most surprising inclusion among those first-timers is Checker — not only because he never was inducted before alongside his ’50s and ’60s peers, but because the Hall has noticeably moved on from those decades in recent years. Maná’s nomination is also a curveball, even though the Mexican group is one of the most successful and accoladed acts in Latin music history, given the Hall’s tendency to overlook “foreign” artists who don’t primarily sing in English.
