The band announced the additional dates on October 30, 2026, following strong ticket demand that saw more than 300,000 tickets purchased in just six days.

The newly confirmed performances bring the tour to 35 shows, with additional concerts scheduled in Melbourne, Hobart, Perth, Canberra, and Brisbane throughout November and December 2027.

Brisbane, the band’s hometown, will host the final two outdoor performances, bringing the reunion tour to a close.

Powderfinger’s return marks a significant moment for Australian rock fans. The group ended its touring career in 2010 after becoming one of the country’s most successful rock acts, known for songs including My Happiness, These Days, and Sunsets.

The upcoming tour will also feature supporting performances from Ocean Alley, Violent Soho, The Living End, Something For Kate, DMA’S, and John Butler Trio.

Presale tickets for the newly announced shows will become available November 4, with general ticket sales beginning November 5, 2026.

The band announced the release alongside a new trailer featuring concert footage, backstage moments, and personal reflections from Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley. Directed by DJ Viola, the documentary follows the group’s farewell tour, which began in January 2019 and concluded at New York’s Madison Square Garden on December 2, 2023.

The nearly five-year journey included approximately 250 performances across multiple continents, with COVID-19 postponements extending the original schedule.

The trailer also highlights some unexpected challenges, including a concert in Brazil where Simmons performed while seated after experiencing dehydration.

Beyond the performances, the documentary explores the emotions surrounding the band’s decision to end its touring career after five decades.

Fans attending KISS Kruise: Land-Locked in Las Vegas from November 13 through 15 will receive an early preview. The documentary will then premiere through the band’s official website, with online access starting at $14.99.

The production, developed in collaboration with the David Bowie Estate, will debut at Uber Arena during the 77th Berlin International Film Festival. It will feature previously unseen footage from Bowie’s Isolar II World Tour, restored and presented using modern audiovisual technology.

Filmmaker Brett Morgen discovered the archival material while working on his 2022 Bowie documentary, Moonage Daydream. The footage captures the singer during a defining period of his career, performing music associated with his influential Berlin era.

Unlike a traditional concert film, Stage will combine large screens, transparent LED displays, surround sound, and theatrical lighting to create an immersive performance environment.

The project aims to bring audiences closer to Bowie’s original live performances without using a hologram or recreating the singer through artificial intelligence.

Following its Berlin debut, the experience is expected to travel internationally, offering longtime fans and new listeners another opportunity to experience Bowie’s musical legacy.

Time Delay Between Over-the-Air Analog Signal and Internet Broadcast: Due to the time delay that exists between the Station’s analog over-the-air signal and the Station’s online webcast, listeners who listen to the Station online may hear the cue to call later than listeners listening to the Station’s analog over-the-air signal. As a result, the odds of an online listener entering this Contest on-air may be diminished. Station’s decisions as to the administration and operation of the Contest and the selection of the potential winners are final and binding in all matters related to the Contest. Failure to verify winner’s eligibility may result in disqualification and forfeiture of the prize. Unclaimed prizes may not be awarded. LIMIT ONE PRIZE PER PERSON.

The potential winner may be notified by email and/or telephone call after the date of random drawing and/or winner determination. The potential winner will be required to sign and return to Station, within three (3) days of the date notice is sent, an affidavit of eligibility and a liability/publicity release (except where prohibited) to claim the prize, if applicable.  A winner who returns the affidavit of eligibility and liability/publicity release will be deemed to have accepted the contest prize and thereafter will not be permitted to rescind their acceptance of the prize and/or return the prize. If a potential winner cannot be contacted, fails to sign and return the affidavit of eligibility and/or the liability/publicity release within the required time period (if applicable), or if the prize or prize notification is returned as undeliverable, potential winner forfeits prize. In the event that the potential winner of a prize is disqualified for any reason, Station may award the applicable prize to an alternate winner by random drawing from among all remaining eligible entries. Unclaimed prizes may not be awarded.

Any attempt by any person to deliberately undermine the legitimate operation of the Contest may be a violation of criminal and civil law, and, should such an attempt be made, Station reserves the right to seek damages from any such person to the fullest extent permitted by law. Station’s failure to enforce any term of these Official Rules shall not constitute a waiver of that provision.
10. Limitations of Liability. The Released Parties are not responsible for: (a) any incorrect or inaccurate information, whether caused by Station, Sponsor, entrants, printing errors or by any of the equipment or programming associated with or utilized in the Contest; (b) technical failures of any kind, including but not limited to malfunctions, interruptions, or disconnections in phone lines or network hardware or software; (c) unauthorized human intervention in any part of the entry process or the Contest; (d) technical or human error that may occur in the administration of the Contest or the processing of entries; or (e) any injury or damage to persons or property that may be caused, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, from entrant’s participation in the Contest or receipt or use, non-use or misuse of any prize.

All issues and questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and enforceability of these Official Rules, or the rights and obligations of entrant and Station in connection with the Contest, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the state in which the Station is located, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules (whether of the state in which the Station is located or any other jurisdiction), which would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the state in which the Station is located.

Failure to verify winner’s eligibility may result in disqualification and forfeiture of the prize. Unclaimed prizes may not be awarded. LIMIT ONE PRIZE PER PERSON.

4. Verification of Potential Winner. THE ELIGIBILITY OF ALL POTENTIAL CONTEST WINNERS IS SUBJECT TO VERIFICATION BY STATION WHOSE DECISIONS ARE FINAL AND BINDING IN ALL MATTERS RELATED TO THE CONTEST. The potential winner must continue to comply with all terms and conditions of these Official Rules, and winning is contingent upon fulfilling all requirements.

The potential winner will be required to sign and return to Station, within three (3) days of the date notice is sent, an affidavit of eligibility and a liability/publicity release (except where prohibited) to claim the prize, if applicable.  A winner who returns the affidavit of eligibility and liability/publicity release will be deemed to have accepted the contest prize and thereafter will not be permitted to rescind their acceptance of the prize and/or return the prize. If a potential winner cannot be contacted, fails to sign and return the affidavit of eligibility and/or the liability/publicity release within the required time period (if applicable), or if the prize or prize notification is returned as undeliverable, potential winner forfeits prize.

Station reserves the right in its sole discretion to disqualify any individual it finds to be tampering with the entry process or the operation of the Contest or to be acting in violation of these Official Rules or acting in an unsportsmanlike or disruptive manner. Any attempt by any person to deliberately undermine the legitimate operation of the Contest may be a violation of criminal and civil law, and, should such an attempt be made, Station reserves the right to seek damages from any such person to the fullest extent permitted by law. Station’s failure to enforce any term of these Official Rules shall not constitute a waiver of that provision.

The Station will conduct the WGRR’s “Playhouse in the Park “The Twelve Dates of Christmas” Ticket Giveaway” Contest (the “Contest”) substantially as described in these rules, and by participating, each entrant agrees as follows:

1. No purchase is necessary to enter or win. A purchase will not increase your chance of winning.   Void where prohibited.  All federal, state, and local regulations apply.

Eligibility.  This Contest is open only to legal U.S. residents that reside within a 100-mile radius from the Market Office, age eighteen (18) years or older at the time of entry with a valid Social Security number, or a prize valued at $500 or more in the last Ninety (90) days and whose immediate family members or household members have not won a prize from the Station in the last Ninety (90) days of a prize valued at $500 or more. Void where prohibited by law.  Employees of Station, Susquehanna Radio LLC, and each of their parent companies, affiliates, related entities and subsidiaries, promotional sponsors, prize providers, advertising agencies, other radio stations serving the Station’s market, and the immediate family members and household members of all such employees are not eligible to participate. The term “immediate family members” includes spouses, parents and step-parents, siblings and step-siblings, and children and stepchildren.  The term “household members” refers to people who share the same residence at least three (3) months out of the year.

Time Delay Between Over-the-Air Analog Signal and Internet Broadcast: Due to the time delay that exists between the Station’s analog over-the-air signal and the Station’s online webcast, listeners who listen to the Station online may hear the cue to call later than listeners listening to the Station’s analog over-the-air signal. As a result, the odds of an online listener entering this Contest on-air may be diminished.

The performance was part of the band’s four-night residency on the late-night show during Halloween week. The group opened the series on October 26 with “Window,” a track from their 2026 album Your Favorite Toy.

“This Is a Call” originally appeared on Foo Fighters’ self-titled debut album, released in 1995. Dave Grohl recorded most of the album himself after Nirvana ended following Kurt Cobain’s death in 1994. The project eventually developed into a full band and launched a career spanning more than three decades.

The television appearance connected two different periods in the group’s catalog, bringing an early fan favorite alongside material from their latest release.

Foo Fighters have released 12 studio albums and were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2021. The band is also preparing for another series of stadium performances in Australia.

In an interview published October 26, Sharon opened up about life following the Black Sabbath singer’s death on July 22, 2025, at age 76. She explained that choosing a private burial allowed Ozzy to rest peacefully, away from public attention.

The couple had been married for more than four decades, sharing a life that included raising their family, building Ozzy’s career, and appearing together on television.

Sharon acknowledged that losing her husband has been difficult and that she is learning to live with his absence rather than expecting the grief to disappear.

She also reflected on their final night together and Ozzy’s last performance with Black Sabbath in Birmingham, England, just weeks before his death.

Despite years of health challenges, Ozzy returned to the stage on July 5, 2025, for a farewell concert that reunited him with his original Black Sabbath bandmates.

For Sharon, visiting his grave remains part of her daily routine.

White confirmed the news in a heartfelt Instagram tribute, remembering his brother as a generous, funny, and caring person who played an important role in his life and career.

Gillis spent approximately a decade managing Third Man Pressing, the Detroit vinyl manufacturing facility connected to White’s Third Man Records. During his time there, he helped oversee the production of hundreds of thousands of vinyl records.

Before entering the music industry, Gillis worked as a pastry chef, including positions at the Ritz-Carlton and Beaumont Hospital.

White also shared childhood memories of his brother, who played guitar while Jack focused on drums. Eddie later taught him how to string a guitar, fish on the Detroit River, and drive a manual-transmission car.

Beyond his work, Gillis enjoyed making small sculptures from leftover vinyl materials.

He is survived by his wife, Angie, and their two children, Amelia and Garrett.
