Ledge Amphitheater announces shows with Bonnie Raitt, ZZ Top, Wallflowers, Slightly Stoopid
The Waite Park venue announced three concerts for its summer concert series, including performances from ZZ Top, The Wallflowers, Bonnie Raitt, Jimmie Vaughan, and Slightly Stoopid.
Four days after Alison Krauss' previously announced reunion with Union Station comes to The Ledge, ZZ Top will headline a show alongside The Wallflowers. The Texas blues rock trio and accompanying beards will arrive in Minnesota on June 12.
The group, more than a half century into its career, has continued touring after the 2021 death of bassist Dusty Hill. He's been replaced by the band's long-time guitar tech, Elwood Francis.
A presale for that show will take place on Wednesday, Feb. 5 at 10 a.m. with the public on sale taking place Friday, Feb. 7 at 10 a.m.
The second of the three newly announced shows brings the long-running California reggae rock ensemble Slightly Stoopid to town with Iration and Little Stranger opening on Aug. 6. A presale is set for Wednesday, Feb. 5 at 10 a.m.
The band's 20-state tour, including their show at The Ledge, will be donating a portion of ticket sales to the Life Rolls On Foundation, which is "dedicated to improving the quality of life for people living with various disabilities."
Lastly, Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Bonnie Raitt, who was just nominated for her 31st Grammy, will hit the Waite Park stage on Sept. 20. Jimmie Vaughan and The Tilt-A-Whirl Band will open.
Her tour will also roll through the Riverside Theater in Milwaukee on Sept. 16, the Weidner Center for the Performing Arts in Green Bay on Sept. 17, and the Lake Superior Big Top Chautauqua in Bayfield, Wis. on Sept. 19.
A presale for Raitt's concert at The Ledge Amphitheater will take place on Thursday, Feb. 6 at 10 a.m., with tickets going on sale to the general public the following day.

'I almost died Sunday.' She continued sharing details about the mystery incident. 'I was found in a pool of blood from my friend with a face injury,' Braxton said. 'As the days go by the worse it is.

Are Calvin Harris and Miley Cyrus Feuding? He Says…
Originally appeared on E! Online Calvin Harris is putting a wrecking ball to feud rumors. After he made eyebrow-raising comments about a scrapped collaboration with Miley Cyrus, the "We Found Love" producer clarified what he meant by the remarks, insisting that he had no bad blood with her. In a video shared to TikTok Aug. 17, Calvin offered a sneak peek at a collaboration with an unknown female artist called "Ocean," writing in the caption, "I love it." And while some fans were thrilled about his upcoming song's techno sound, others noted that the DJ had previously shared a glimpse at the unreleased track with Miley on vocals. "What happened to the one with Miley?????" one user commented, while another wrote, "I love Miley's version more." In response to the latter comment, Calvin joked, "Tell her," before replying to those questioning where the "We Can't Stop" singer's version was with messages like, "I do not know" and "My bad." More from E! Online Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom's Daughter Daisy Looks So Big in Rare Photo Jelly Roll's Wife Bunnie Xo Has Painful Reaction to His 200-Pound Weight Loss How Pregnant Jana Duggar's Journey to Having Her Own Family Set Her Apart From Her Sisters Following his cryptic reactions, fans began to wonder if there was drama behind Calvin's decision to re-record "Ocean" with another singer, with one user asking, "This was miley's team fault? because the og vibe was amazing." But the "This Is What You Came For" artist quickly shut down the rumors, responding, "Nah it was my wires." In fact, Calvin, 41, went on to clear the air about his relationship with the Grammy winner, insisting in a second comment, "I love Miley." As for Miley, she has yet to speak publicly on why her collaboration with the producer may never see the light of day. However, she previously got candid about being selective about what fellow celebrities she keeps in her inner circle. 'I am not very active or a very active part of my community of other artists and entertainers and celebrities,' Miley admitted during a 2024 appearance on David Letterman's My Next Guest Needs No Introduction, adding of attending industry events, 'It just doesn't feel like my people when I'm in that room." However, she noted that she will make exceptions. Case in point: She's maintained a friendship with Beyoncé, who she collaborated with on the 2024 Cowboy Carter track "II Most Wanted." As she put it, 'I'm a part of my community in that way but, again, it's all quality, not quantity." Miley and Calvin may not be beefing, but read on to look back on stars who actually have had public feuds over the years.
