Natalie Merchant announces 2025 tour, three NY shows. How much are tickets?
Only 10,000 Maniacs could keep us away from this tour.
Natalie Merchant just announced she's hitting the road this November for a 15-concert tour that will send her and longtime collaborator Erik Della Penna (who penned the music and lyrics for Broadway's Tony-nominated 'Dead Outlaw') all over the Northeast.
While out and about, the duo is slated to make a trio of stops in New York.

First, they'll headline at Tarrytown's Tarrytown Music Hall on Sunday, Nov. 2. After that, the twosome hit Hudson's Hudson Hall on Saturday, Nov. 15 and NYC's New York Society for Ethical Culture Concert Hall on Monday, Nov. 24.
These intimate acoustic shows will be made up of 'songs and stories' according to Merchant's Instagram tour announcement post.
'Erik and I love playing our duo shows,' Merchant said. 'We can be so stealth and spontaneous when it's just the two of us. We read each other so well after all these years.'
While we're not sure what songs Merchant will take to the stage at these intimate, acoustic concerts, Set List FM reports that she performed 18 songs at a July 2024 gig in Nashville including her delicious '90s hit 'Kind & Generous.'

'Dead Outlaw' on Broadway
Nominated for seven Tonys — including Best New Musical, Best Leading Actor in a Musical for Andrew Durand, Best Featured Actress in a Musical for Julia Knitel and Best Featured Actor in a Musical for Jeb Brown — 'Dead Outlaw' tells the unbelievable true story of Elmer McCurdy, a train robber whose body, after being shot dead in a shootout, was preserved and became a sideshow attraction as a carnival exhibit, a wax museum display, and a movie prop for decades.
In the New York Post's review of the show, critic Johnny Oleksinski spotlit the show's score saying the music 'stitches together rockabilly, campfire songs, lounge music and folk into an eerie Americana soundscape that's punchy and unsettling.'

Natalie Merchant new music
In 2023, Merchant released her first album in six years.
'Keep Your Courage,' comprised of ten tracks, demonstrates the singer's evolution as a vocalist. Her voice is deeper, more assured, more contemplative and more mature than ever before.
If you're a fan of Merchant's earlier work, this record may seem like a departure but after multiple listens, you'll hear the playful tone and wistful lyrics within the music that make Merchant such a singular artist.

For our money, we suggest starting with the spellbinding 'Sister Tilly' which surprised us with a tempo change halfway through — it's almost like a singer-songwriter dropping a beat.
We're also quite fond of the quietly bombastic 'Hunting The Wren' as well.
You can hear the 54-minute record in its entirety here.

Georgina Rodríguez's massive engagement ring from Cristiano Ronaldo is breaking the internet, with the rock estimated to be worth 7 figures
The bride-to-be posted the photo of the impressive diamond ring that broke the internet. Portuguese soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo and Argentine model Georgina Rodríguez announced their engagement on Monday after eight years of dating. The bride-to-be shared the momentous news in an Instagram post, with a photo of her massive sparkler of an engagement ring and the caption, written in Spanish: 'Yes, I do. In this and in all my lives.' The post has since broken the internet, with over 11.3 million likes as of Tuesday morning. The official details of Rodríguez's bling, like the number of carats and how much it's worth, have yet to be revealed by the power couple and their unknown jeweler, but that hasn't stopped jewelry experts from weighing in. Here's what we know so far about the 'four C's' (cut, clarity, color and carat) of the impressive diamond ring: What kind of cut is the diamond? Abdulla BelJafla, creative director of Gafla, who shared his insight with Vogue Arabia, said the main diamond in the center is an oval-cut, which maximizes its brilliance. 'A perfectly proportioned oval (with a 1.30–1.50 length-to-width ratio) offers symmetry on the hand,' he told the magazine. 'While many ovals exhibit the subtle 'bow-tie effect,' this piece appears to have exceptional light dispersion, minimizing it entirely.' How many estimated carats are there? Rodríguez's oval-cut diamond ring is approximately 37 carats in total, according to jewelry experts. The center oval stone weighs about 35 carats, Tobias Kormind, the managing director of 77 Diamonds in London, told People. He believes the center stone is flanked by oval stones on the sides, about one carat each, set in platinum. BelJafla also assessed the stunner to be about 37 carats total and estimated the center diamond to be "between 22 and 30 carats," he told Vogue Arabia. Let's get down to brass tacks. How much do we think this ring is worth? It's estimated to be worth seven figures. 'If the diamond is natural and of exceptional quality in the D-F color range with flawless or near-flawless clarity, its value could easily exceed around $2 million," Laura Taylor, engagement ring specialist at Lorel Diamonds, told People. Meanwhile, Kormind estimates that Rodríguez is carrying around a $5 million ring on her finger. 'Experts value the ring between U.S. $4 million and U.S. $5 million,' BelJafla told Vogue Arabia, 'given the size, flawless clarity, and D color of the stones. … A ring like this is quite rare if it's a natural diamond.' What else do we know about the engaged couple? Ronaldo, 40, and Rodríguez, 31, have been together for eight years. They have a total of four children together: twins Eva Maria and Mateo, 8 (born via surrogacy); daughter Alana, 7; and daughter Bella, 3. Ronaldo also has a 15-year-old son, Cristiano Jr., from a previous relationship. The couple previously announced the death of Bella's twin brother, Ángel, in April 2022. Solve the daily Crossword

Jason Momoa reveals he nearly drowned while surfing in Hawaii: ‘I gave up'
The King of the Atlantis nearly lost his life in the water. Jason Momoa appeared on the 'Smartless' podcast Monday and recounted the time he almost drowned off the coast of Maui 18 years ago. 'I was doing this paddle, we went in at Jaws,' the 'Aquaman' star, 46, said, referring to the island's biggest surf break. 'We paddled like 13 miles down the coast. You're kind of almost a mile offshore, and then my leash snapped.' 8 Jason Momoa in an Instagram video. Jason Momoa/Instagram Momoa explained that he was 'trained pretty well' but he still 'took quite a few [waves] on the head.' 'They're pretty big, like 10-foot Hawaiian waves,' he recalled. 'But I'm probably half a mile at that point offshore. And it's actually this place is called 'S–f—s' because there's all this water that pulls out and of a channel there, [and] you just get hit with these waves.' 8 Jason Momoa in 'Aquaman 2.' ©Warner Bros/Courtesy Everett Collection 8 Jason Momoa surfing in Hawaii in Dec. 2021. MEGA 8 Jason Momoa riding a surfboard in Hawaii. MEGA 'I was stuck in this crazy spot, which is probably the outer reef and unknown to me. I was really on the outer reef and they couldn't see me,' Momoa explained. 'I had my paddle and I was waving it and they couldn't see me, and the waves were so big.' The 'Game of Thrones' alum said that the terrifying moment made him think of his and Lisa Bonet's then-3-month-old daughter, Lola Iolani. 'I looked in, and I was just like—my daughter at that time was 3 months old—and I just lost it,' he remembered. 8 Jason Momoa at the 'Highest 2 Lowest' red carpet at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival.

'I couldn't move anymore, and my arms and my legs gave up after I was out there for a while.' 'My body stopped,' he shared. 'Like I couldn't move my arms anymore, and I bubbled down. Then my my toe hit the outer reef. I literally gave up, and I'm screaming inside.' 8 Jason Momoa in 'Chief of War.' Courtesy of Apple Luckily, Momoa was able to grab the coral and eventually one of his surfing friends foun him. But due to the heavy currents, the pair lost their boards as they headed for the shore. 'I have seven more miles to paddle. My feet are covered in blood, and I'm just literally [with] my ancestors just paddling the rest of this way, head down, and we get out,' Momoa said, confirming they made it out of the ocean. 8 Jason Momoa swimming in Kauai, Hawaii. 8 Jason Momoa at the 'Chief of War' premiere in Hawaii on July 18.

I couldn't stop for my kids, I couldn't stop for my ex, I couldn't stop smoking,' he explained. 'And the moment I came out, I never smoked again. Like, I just died. I tried and tried, but I couldn't do it again because I just gave up. Like, I gave up my life.'

Cat's Behavior With Golden Retriever vs Husky Leaves Viewers in Hysterics
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. How a cat behaves towards their husky sibling versus their golden retriever sibling has left the internet in stitches. Instagram user @maplebaconbutter shared a video showing their cat affectionately lying on top of their golden retriever, before cutting to footage of the same cat energetically pouncing multiple times on their husky. The hysterical compilation has already garnered almost 135,000 likes and 869,000 views on Instagram. "How our cat acts with our golden," the text overlay reads as the golden and the cat enjoy a quiet snuggle. "Vs with our Husky," appears next, as the orange cat and husky engage in playful sparring. "His 2 personalities," the owner captioned the post. Huskies are known for their high energy and playful nature, but that can sometimes be overwhelming for cats—especially those that are more reserved. While some huskies can get along with cats if introduced early and properly supervised, their prey drive and boisterous personalities mean they may be more inclined to chase or play rough, according to Dogster. Golden retrievers, on the other hand, are generally considered one of the most cat-friendly breeds. Their gentle temperament, affectionate nature, and lower prey drive make them more likely to form close, calm bonds with feline companions, Dogster notes. The cat in question appears to be a Maine Coon, a breed often celebrated for its friendliness toward dogs. Maine Coons are known for their confident, sociable personalities and ability to adapt to various types of canine companions—including both high-energy breeds like huskies and laid-back ones like golden retrievers.

"He likes the golden more cuz it looks like him just larger," suggested one user. "He matches their energies. Huskies are super energetic so he plays with him. The golden looks a bit older and a lot more chill so he gets the snuggles," said another. "Matches energy of each dog. I bet the husky loves it. Hehe," said another viewer. "Cuddle buddy vs Wrestling buddy," observed another user. "He speaks their love language," said Syd. "Golden retriever: Gentle fluffy companion. Husky: Worthy opponent. Capable of offering a warrior's death," shared another user. "Me with my bf vs me with my friends," joked another. Newsweek reached out to @maplebaconbutter for comment via Instagram.
