Doechii announces 2025 ‘Live From The Swamp Tour.' Get tickets today
Vivid Seats is the New York Post's official ticketing partner. We may receive revenue from this partnership for sharing this content and/or when you make a purchase. Featured pricing is subject to change. In 2025, Doechii is bringing the swamp to the people. The Grammy-winning rapper just announced she's striking out on her nationwide 'Live From The Swamp Tour' that will take her to ballrooms, music halls, coliseums, theaters, auditoriums, parks and pavilions all the U.S. and Canada from October through November this year. At the time of publication, the 26-year-old Tampa native doesn't have an official New York gig booked while on the run. However, she will serve as one of the many headliners at this year's All Things Go at Forest Hills Stadium. Her set is scheduled for Saturday, Sept. 27. Other notable stops on the North American jaunt include Chicago (Oct. 14), Boston (Oct. 19), Washington, D.C. (Oct. 21), Phoenix (Nov. 3) and Seattle (Nov. 10). She'll also lend her talents to San Francisco's annual Outside Lands (Aug. 8) and Austin City Limits (Oct. 4 and 11). 'This project [Doechii's second mixtape 'Alligator Bites Never Heal'] just turned one, and before I disappear to create the next world, I'm going back on tour, the final chapter of this era,' the self-described 'Swamp Princess' shared via Instagram. 'Thank you for the memories, the magic, the love — let's close it out together.' Prior to the tour announcement, Doechii most recently headlined at Lollapalooza. She capped her electric 15-song set by driving off in an albino alligator-wrapped car, according to Variety. And, while we don't know what she'll take to the stage on the upcoming outing — although we'd guess her mega-hits 'Denial Is A River,' 'Anxiety,' 'Boiled Peanuts,' 'Nissan Altima' and 'Alter Ego' will make an appearance — we do know the best way to find out is live. Fans Swampies can purchase tickets for all upcoming Doechii shows and festivals on sites like Vivid Seats; the official on-sale for the 'Live From The Swamp Tour' is Monday, Aug. 11. Vivid Seats is a secondary market ticketing platform, and prices may be higher or lower than face value, depending on demand.

Doechii festival appearances 2025 On top of the tour, Doechii has four (!) festival appearances lined up this year. To make sure you're fully in the loop, here's everything you need to know about each of these multi-day music extravaganzas.

The 19-track, 47-minute record is an atmospheric, pointed effort that melds moody sounds, politically-charged lyrics and an urgent flow to create an explosive listening experience. While there's next to no filler here, we did pick out a few favorites. For our money, you're going to want to try the almost psychedelic, hyper-focused 'Bullfrog,' snazzy, funky 'Boiled Peanuts,' impassioned epic 'Catfish,' hypnotic bop 'Skipp' and laid-back 'Death Roll.' Still, the top of the tops here has top be the dreamy title track that closes the record. It's slower than the rest of the album and shows off a minimalist side to the gifted singer/rapper. We can't wait to sway to this one live. And, yes, the extended version includes her smash Gotye-sampling 'Anxiety.' To hear for yourself, you can find the deluxe version 'Alligator Bites Never Heal' here. Huge stars on tour in 2025 Many iconic artists you know and love are taking their hits to the people this year.

After 3 Decades, Twisted Spoke Will Close in West Town
is the James Beard Award-winning regional editor for Eater's Midwest region, and in charge of coverage in Chicago, Detroit, and the Twin Cities. He's a native Chicagoan and has been with Eater since 2014. In the mid-'90s, the Twisted Spoke's rotating motorcycle, piloted by a skeleton perched on the bar's roof, served notice to passersby that they were about to enter the West Loop. This era's West Loop wasn't as polished as its current state, where Randolph Street serves as an amusement park for tech bros and brands. But despite the rough exterior, Twisted Spoke, which debuted in 1994, was a friendly and mostly welcoming place. There were whiskey specials, bloody marys on weekends, and an underrated bar menu. The bar had one of the few rooftops in the area. A Wrigleyville sequel would emerge eight years later, meant to be an antidote to the glut of sports bars that dominated Clark Street. A barbecue spot — Bone Daddy — debuted down the street from the original, where Big Star West Town has taken up shop. Both Bone Daddy and the Twisted Spoke's Wrigley location closed years ago, as the original kept going, even surviving the pandemic-era bar restrictions. But now, after more than three decades, the Twisted Spoke will be no more. Co-owner Mitch Einhorn announced the closure via email, writing that Saturday, August 30, will be his bar's last ride. 'You'll hear the usual excuses: 'spend more time with family,' 'lease expired,' 'pandemic aftermath,'' he writes. 'But the real story is uglier: The gears of this city don't turn the way they used to. The nights got quieter. The fights less rowdy. Half-priced whiskey isn't a sustainable business model, and sooner or later, the bill comes due.' The Einhorns — Mitch and his brother, Cliff — described Twisted Spoke as a 'family biker bar.' They've gone on to open Lush Wine & Spirits in Roscoe Village and West Town and Pie Hole Pizza. Mitch Einhorn wasn't sure what else he could add beyond his email, which was also posted on social media. He counted down the four weeks left for customers to visit. 'After that? Who knows. We'll sit in the wreckage, chain-smoking and scheming,' Einhorn writes. 'Something always bubbles up from the wreckage. There's always another bad idea waiting in the wings.'

Ozzy Osbourne death certificate reveals rocker died of a heart attack: Reports
Ozzy Osbourne — the heavy metal rockstar turned reality television pioneer — died of a heart attack, his death certificate revealed, according to multiple reports. The certificate filed in London also reportedly said that the Black Sabbath frontman, who was 76, suffered from coronary artery disease and Parkinson's disease, as previously known. British tabloid The Sun was the first to report on the rock star's cause of death, later reported by The New York Times. Osbourne died on July 22 of "(a) Out of hospital cardiac arrest (b) Acute myocardial infarction (c) Coronary artery disease and Parkinson's disease with autonomic dysfunction (Joint Causes)," the certificate reportedly states. Osbourne had spoken publicly about his ailments in the last several years of his life, including his battle with Parkinson's disease. "I'm taking it one day at a time, and if I can perform again, I will," the then 74-year-old singer said in a November 2023 interview with Rolling Stone magazine. Osbourne told the magazine that he attributed some of his health issues to the vast amount of drugs and alcohol he took in his early career. "I do count my lucky stars," he said. "I don't know why I'm still here and I do sometimes think I'm on borrowed time. I said to Sharon the other day, 'What a great f---ing life we've had and what a great f---ing experience.'" In the end, his health issues did not deter him from performing. A little more than two weeks before his death, Osbourne reunited with Black Sabbath bandmates Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler and Bill Ward for what would be his final show — in Birmingham, England, the rock star's hometown. The concert drew a crowd of more than 45,000 to Birmingham's Villa Park soccer stadium. An additional 5.8 million metalheads watched the concert online from around the world. Osbourne, dubbed "The Prince of Darkness," performed the show on a bat-themed, black leather throne. Osbourne's wife, Sharon Osbourne, revealed in February that Ozzy was unable to walk because of Parkinson's disease. His death prompted an outpouring of grief from a motley crew of prominent figures, including pop icon Elton John, rock star Jack White and California Gov. Gavin Newsom. Osbourne is credited as a pioneer who helped introduce the world to heavy metal music. Throughout his legendary career, he received five Grammy awards and was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice, first with Black Sabbath and again as a solo artist. In the early 2000s, Osbourne re-introduced himself to the world, and particularly to a younger generation of fans, on MTV's "The Osbournes." The reality series centered on Osbourne, his wife and two of his four children, bringing the British rockstar into American pop culture in a brand new light. Thousands of mourners lined the streets of Birmingham last week for a funeral procession to honor the rock legend.
