Haim has something to tell you: Its tour is coming to Minneapolis
Haim, the indie rock trio of Alana, Danielle, and Este Haim, is embarking on a tour across the U.K. and North America that will have them popping into stadiums like Madison Square Garden and the United Center. The "I Quit" tour will also have them stopping by The Armory in Minneapolis on Sept. 14. The tour takes its title from the group's upcoming album, which will be released on June 20. Haim has already released a few songs from the record, including "Relationships," "Everybody's Trying to Figure Me Out," and "Down to Be Wrong." A video for the latter song was released last week. It's directed by Oscar winner Paul Thomas Anderson, who is a friend of the band — Alana Haim starred in his film Licorice Pizza — and has directed music videos for the band previously. Tickets for the Minneapolis show, which features Dora Jar as an opener, will go on sale at 10 a.m. on Friday, May 2. A presale will take place on Thursday.

Gracie Abrams defends opening act, Dora Jar amid "wildly uncool and bizarre" criticism
Gracie Abrams clapped back after a fan started a petition to change the opening act, Dora Jar for her upcoming tour dates, calling the criticism "so wildly uncool and bizarre." After Jar's announcement that she would be opening for the European leg of Abram's tour in February and March, a petition was started on demanding that Jar be replaced, according to Billboard. Created by Dexter Morgan, the now-deleted petition stated that 'Many fans, including myself, are baffled by the recent announcement … We are perplexed as we do not recognize her, and with less than two weeks till the tour, it's virtually impossible to familiarize ourselves with her slow-paced songs.' Morgan added that, 'For a memorable concert experience, an opening act should set the mood and get the crowd excited, but Dora's slow tempo songs may not achieve this goal.", and that "a more well-known, energetic artist or band" be chosen as Abrams' opening act instead". Photo: X Abrams responded to the petition via a comment on an Instagram stating firmly that "Just hearing about this absolute ridiculousness… so wildly uncool and bizarre and also just does not remotely add up,". "I've only seen everyone's total excitement and I couldn't be luckier or prouder to share a stage with this talented wonder," Abrams added. "Stream everything she's ever made whether or not you're coming to the show. Dora forever and ever." The following day, the "Us" singer emphasized her support by sharing a screenshot of the comment she left on Stereogum's post on her Instagram Stories. "Hi reiterating this and then dropping it. I am so excited to share a stage with this gem of an artist. Love you Dora ❤️," she captioned the post. Photo: Instagram/@gracieabrams Jar responded to the petition in a post on X stating, "Don't worry this doesn't bum me out! I'm hear to perform for all the music loving open hearted fans. Don't worry this doesn't bum me out! I'm hear to perform for all the music loving open hearted fans. those who aren't interested can go buy merch while I'm playing (but they might as well let me entertain them tho..;)) an overwhelming amount of fans have been so kind & excited ❤️ — Dora Jar (@dorajar_) She even joked on that she had "signed the petition," herself. signed the petition but rehearsing these songs just in case I remain the opener! Love u Dexter — Dora Jar (@dorajar_) Jar will join Abrams on the road starting next month in Spain, and wrap up in Scotland by March after performing across Europe and the U.K.
