Concerts to see this week: Tribute to Slim Dunlap, Post Malone, Tennis
Farewell tours, stadium shows, and a memorial for a beloved Minnesota musician highlight the concert calendar this week. Here are the shows happening around the Twin Cities throughout the week of May 19. Monday, May 19, at First Avenue Local musicians, artists, and fans are giving Bob "Slim" Dunlap the tribute he deserves. Following his death in December at age 73, a memorial and tribute concert has been organized by members of his family. Dunlap was best known for his time playing guitar in The Replacements. He joined the group in 1987, replacing founding guitarist Bob Stinson. He's also fondly remembered for a pair of solo albums released in the '90s that didn't break through, but found an audience that has held them up for years as underappreciated gems. (That audience notably includes Bruce Springsteen.) The Celebration of Life will feature performances from Trailer Trash, The Cactus Blossoms (duo), an ensemble going by the Slimboree Singers, and other special guests, including Curtiss A, Dave Boquist, Gini Dodds, John Eller, The Daily Show co-creator Lizz Winstead, Brad Zellar, and members of the Slim Dunlap Band. Tuesday, May 20, at Palace Theatre The elder statesmen of industrial rock are shingin a light on their often overlooked early work. Al Jourgensen and co. will focus on a pair of albums, With Sympathy and Twitch, during this tour. Those first two albums were closer to synth pop than the dark industrial rock that Ministry would later become known for. They'll be joined by My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult and Die Krupps at the Palace Theatre. Tuesday, May 20, at U.S. Bank Stadium The "Circles" singer's "BIG ASS Stadium Tour" is rolling into U.S. Bank Stadium with Jelly Roll and Sierra Ferrell (who headlines Surly Festival Field later in the summer). Malone is promising a mix of music from across his career, including F-1 Trillion, his Grammy-winning shift into country music released last year. Wednesday, May 21, at First Avenue The husband and wife duo of Patrick Riley and Alaina Moore recently announced this would be their final tour as Tennis. Their show at First Avenue comes after the recent release of Face Down in the Garden, which will be their final studio album. "The highs and lows of touring are unnatural, disorienting," Moore said on the release of "12 Blown Tires," the first single from the indie-pop duo's swan song. "On the shoulder of I-40, I began writing the lyrics to '12 Blown Tires.' It is a constellation of memories from the road, and of our marriage, two endeavors that are completely, hopelessly entangled." Saturday, May 24, at Orpheum Theatre The Grammy-winning rapper and actor might seem like a surprising fit with the Orpheum Theatre. The Hennepin Arts calendar isn't typically stocked with hip-hop, but, at a minimum, it'll offer a unique way to experience the deep catalog of the "It's a Vibe" on Monday, May 19: Bob 'Slim Dunlap Tribute and Memorial at First Avenue Momma with Wishy at Fine Line Willie Wisely & Tommy Barbarella Organ Combo at The Dakota Joe Kelly with Robyn Jamner, The Daily Norm, and Ambient Toad at The White Squirrel Bar Concerts on Tuesday, May 20: Post Malone with Jelly Roll at U.S. Bank Stadium Ministry with My Life with the Thrill Kill Kult and Die Krupps at Palace Theatre Bartees Strange with Sloppy Jane at Fine Line Deb Talan at The Parkway Theater Matt Andersen at The Dakota New Band Night: Bridge Band, Eldest Daughter, Nobody From Nowhere, and Quietchild at Green Room Cheap Bouquet residency and single release with TimIsARocker and Lost Island Society at The White Squirrel Bar The New Havoline Supremes at The White Squirrel Bar (free)Concerts on Wednesday, May 21: Tennis with Billie Marten at First Avenue Alpha Consumer at Icehouse's Starlight Room Rachel Chinouriri at Fine Line Magic Castles, Flavor Crystals, and Michael Moore at Zhora Darling En El Momento w/ Medium Zach (Feat.

The Killers will play a smaller venue in MN, but only for Wells Fargo customers
The Killers are coming to the Palace Theatre, a relatively intimate venue for a band that has headlined Target Field and Xcel Energy Center. First Avenue announced the June 26 underplay this week, with a small catch. You can only buy tickets if you've got a Wells Fargo credit card. The show is part of a series of Wells Fargo events that drop big-name acts into relatively small venues, such as the 2,500-capacity Palace Theatre. Brandon Flowers and co. last came to town for the first night of TC Summer Fest in 2023, performing alongside the Flaming Lips, Death Cab for Cutie, and others. The second day was also headlined by a Las Vegas-born band, Imagine Dragons. The two-day festival-style event was billed as the inaugural TC Summer Fest, but it has not been held since. The Killers took the stage for an underplay that year as well, headlining First Avenue the night before trekking down the street to the Twins' stadium. Tickets to see the "Mr. Brightside" hitmakers are available exclusively to Wells Fargo Autograph cardholders through Friday, May 16, at 10 a.m. At that time, tickets will become available to anyone with a Wells Fargo credit card.

Brockville police looking for witnesses to incident near Salvation Army
Brockville police are asking for witnesses to come forward as they investigate a series of events Sunday near the Salvation Army building on First Avenue. Police said a 'possible explosion' was reported in the area at around 5 p.m. People at the scene suggested someone had fired a gun and had since left. No one was reported hurt. Police said in a post on Facebook Sunday there was a police operation in the area, but there was no risk to public safety. The post was later edited with an update to say an arrest had been made. On Monday, police issued a news release detailing the operation. 'Officers converged on the treed area behind the Salvation Army, locating one person who denied anybody there having a gun. It was believed that the individual police were looking for was a 59-year-old male that frequented that encampment,' Brockville police said in a news release. The 59-year-old was found and arrested, initially on a firearms charge, but he denied any involvement. 'A thorough search was conducted of the encampment area, which did not yield any evidence to any gun being discharged, nor any type of explosion,' police said. The man was later released unconditionally, police said. Brockville police say if anybody was in the area or witnessed anything they can contact call 613-342-0127.
