Steve Miller Band is hitting the road this summer: Where they'll play, how to get tickets
Kicking off Aug. 15 in Bethel, New York, and wrapping Nov. 8 in Anaheim, California, the tour will boast classic rock hits from the Steve Miller Band, whose "Greatest Hits 1974-78" is one of the 25 bestselling albums of all time.
Last year, Miller, 81, and his taut band joined Def Leppard and Journey for a summer stadium run, packing the set with guitar-heavy favorites including "Rock'n Me," "The Joker," "Swingtown" and "Take the Money and Run."
Tickets are on sale now via www.stevemillerband.com.
Earlier this year, Miller's iconic "Fly Like an Eagle" was inducted into the Library of Congress's National Recording Registry. His reach also spanned generations when Eminem sampled 1982's "Abracadabra" on his 2024 hit "Houdini." During his performances on last year's stadium tour, Miller thanked the rapper for using the song.
Miller will also be honored June 9 with the Les Paul Spirit Award, named for the famed guitar innovator.

‘Just Friends' Turned into a Summer Fling, Then Something More
In October 2014, Dr. George Anthony Russo II was making his way from Scituate, Mass., where he was staying with his parents, to Orlando, Fla., for a new job. Along the way, he stopped in Mahopac, N.Y., to visit a friend. The two went to a casino, and as luck would have it, Dr. Russo won $4,000 on a slot machine. This meant he could afford to go to Los Angeles to visit Maggie Amelia Weston, with whom he had just had a 'summer fling.' Dr. Russo and Ms. Weston met that June on her first day working as a hostess at Wahlburgers — a burger chain owned by brothers Donnie, Mark and Paul Wahlberg — in Hingham, Mass. Dr. Russo, who goes by Gidge and was not yet a doctor, was already employed there. He recalled asking co-workers, 'Who's the new girl?' Ms. Weston noticed him too: 'I remember he had a certain confidence and a certain tall, dark and handsome quality.' She had a boyfriend at the time, though the two were on the verge of breaking up, she said. In late June 2014, Dr. Russo invited Ms. Weston 'to hang out on his boat and join a bonfire on the beach with his friends,' Ms. Weston said, who by then was single, which she 'casually mentioned' to Dr. Russo. A week later, he joined her to watch 'Game of Thrones' at her parents' home in Hingham, where she was living for the summer. Still, as 'just friends,' she said, because she was moving to L.A. that fall to pursue her dream of becoming 'a star' in film and television. 'I didn't want to form any attachments that would keep me from my dreams,' she said. 'But Gidge made it very hard.' Want all of The Times? Subscribe.

The Luckiest Cruise Ship Casinos—According To a Gambling.com Ranking
Rows of Casino Slot Machines with Shallow Depth of Field. Las Vegas Gambling Theme. getty Serious gamers chasing big wins often head to the Las Vegas strip or top gambling destinations worldwide like Monte Carlo or Macau. But casinos are also a popular amenity on cruise ships, with everything from slots and roulette to blackjack often on board. These floating casinos, most commonly on larger ships versus smaller river cruises or expedition cruise ships, tend to draw less serious gamblers and generally have tighter slots than their land-based counterparts. But with that being said, if you're a high roller at high seas, some ships may be luckier than others, according to a new analysis from that ranked the luckiest cruise ships casinos. The luckiest cruise ship casino in 2025 is the Diamond Princess, according to analysis released in July 2025. Taking its inaugural cruise in March 2004, the ship — which has a guest capacity of 2,710 — runs several itineraries throughout Asia. Some of those routes include a 12-day trip that traverses through Thailand and Malaysia, several routes through Japan and a Vietnam itinerary that cruises along Halong Bay. 'The ship has a Las Vegas-style casino that offers the latest slot machines, blackjack, Texas hold 'em and prize tournaments,' the announcement from says. To determine the luckiest cruise ships casinos, the team analyzed Tripadvisor reviews, mining them for key words with positive associations to winning such as 'luck,' 'lucky' and 'happy.' This is a similar method used in other 'luckiest casino' rankings, like one in May that determined the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Resort led the list of the luckiest casinos in the United States. For the most part, cruise ships are limited to operating only when the ship is in international waters and not when they're in port. But when it comes to casinos on cruise ships, Princess appears to have an edge. The World Cruise Awards in 2024 named the Enchanted Princess as the best ship for gambling. Routes on this ship range from Canada and New England to the Caribbean as well as trips in the Mediterranean and Aegean seas. While many large cruise lines have gambling options on board, others, including Viking and Disney Cruise Line, have opted against having casinos onboard. Some cruise lines, like WIndStar Cruises, though, have scrapped casinos from their ships and repurposed the square footage into public spaces. Azamara converted its casinos into a relaxing lounge area for guests to read, hang out, mingle and listen to live piano music. Here's the top five luckiest cruise ship casinos, according to No. 1: Diamond Princess operated by Princess The Vegas-style casino offers gaming lessons and is a place where you can try your luck at slot machines, roulette, blackjack, Texas Hold 'Em, and more. No. 2: Wonder of the Seas operated by Royal Caribbean Wonder of the Seas runs cruises from Miami to the Caribbean, with stops at the cruise line's private island CocoCay. The cruise line's casino is called Casino Royale. No. 3: Infinity operated by Celebrity Smoke-free casinos offer slot machines and table games, featuring blackjack, baccarat and more. For adjacent fun with less at stake, play a live-action game of Deal or No Deal . No. 4: The Emerald operated by Princess The Emerald Princess cruise ship offers a variety of cruises, ranging from a Pacific Wine Country trip to one that travels to the Baja Peninsula and Sea of Cortez in Mexico. Most ships set sail out of Los Angeles. No. 5: Queen Elizabeth operated by Cunard Cruise Line
