Vampire Weekend has four shows in New Jersey. How much do tickets cost?
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. Vampire Weekend is returning to their roots. The beloved indie group — who just launched the second leg of their 'Only God Was Above Us Tour' — announced that, due to overwhelming demand, they are playing four concerts at lead singer Ezra Koenig's hometown-adjacent Wellmont Theater in Montclair, NJ. These highly-anticipated concerts are set to take place Monday, Sept. 15, Tuesday, Sept. 16, Wednesday, Sept. 17 and Thursday, Sept. 18 at the intimate venue, which can only fit 2,137 audience members. Advertisement As an added dose of nostalgia, Koenig's high school band, The Sophisticuffs, will open all four shows. 'Sophisticuffs was a Glen Ridge, NJ band active from roughly 1999-2002,' the band shared via Instagram. 'Ezra was a member ages 15-17 along with his good friends Wes, Steve, Dan and Andrei. They played the vast majority of their shows in Montclair, usually at Serendipity (in the Congregational Church) or at the Possible Side Effects improv events under the Clairidge Theater. They dabbled in surf, post-rock, Christmas, punk and pop music. Ezra is thrilled to reunite onstage with the band for the first time since high school. You can expect to hear [their] songs like 'Chicken Dance,' 'Hello Professor,' and 'Great Expectations.'' While it's likely Sophisticuffs will stick to a fairly strict set list, we'd expect anything but for Vampire Weekend. At their most recent shows, they've been mixing things up and ending their sets with all-over-the-map encores where they play a number of covers requested by the audience, as reported by Set List FM. Advertisement If this sounds like the freewheeling show for you, tickets are available for all four homecoming Vampire Weekend New Jersey concerts as of today. At the time of publication, the lowest price we could find on seats for any one Wellmont Theater show was $83 including fees on Vivid Seats. Their other three shows have tickets starting anywhere from $111 to $132 including fees. Not bad to see Vampire Weekend and The Sophisticuffs up close and personal in a much smaller venue than they typically play.

For a fuller look at what made the set list at other gigs, check out their complete concert history here. Vampire Weekend new music On April 5, 2024, Vampire Weekend released their fifth studio album 'Only God Was Above Us.' In the very off chance you haven't listened yet, the guys still have the goods. The precise yet ramshackle opener 'Ice Cream Piano' is a slice of piano pop heaven with pounding percussions, swirling strings and washed out guitar mixed in over Koenig's lush vocals. From there, the goofy 'Classical' finds one groove, settles into another and becomes something entirely different. Oftentimes, 'OGWAU' is so inspired that it struggles to sit with one melody or idea for too long; this isn't a knock on the group though. The band's restlessness keeps the listener on their toes in the best way. Advertisement 'Capricorn,' the third track, oscillates between twinkly piano ballad and noise rock; Koenig's soft, unassuming lyrics ('I know you're tired of trying baby, you don't have to try' is a standout) glide over lush keys until the tune hurtles into overdrive two minutes in with discordant noise-rock before bringing it back to basics. For the remainder of the brief 47-minute runtime, Vampire Weekend continue to surprise and innovate. 'Connect' marries DIY banging on drums with synthetic autotune; 'Prep School Gangsters' takes a page out of The Beach Boys' laid-band, seaside playbook. Although each song features the same ingredients (and all sound unmistakably Vampire Weekend-ian) the end result is unique each time. In the back half, 'The Surfer' goes a more lo-fi airy route than the five tunes that preceded it yet still features majestic swirls. 'Gen-X Cops' transitions from an out and out garage rock anthem into something a bit more precious — a hard driving, head-bopping indie anthem. Best of all though, might be the melancholy, triumphant, choir-backed 'Mary Boone.' It fits squarely into this critic's favorite genre: the heartbreaking, singalong anthem that gives you goosebumps every time you hear it. Closing us out is the charming thumper 'Pravda' (which just might be the most perfect 'making dinner' song to ever exist) and 'Hope,' an eight-minute epic with the refrain 'I Hope You Let It Go.'

John Oates solo tour Hall's former bandmate — whom he has a restraining order against now — is heading out on a quick solo tour of his own this year. As of now, the 77-year-old rocker has six performances lined up all over the East and West Coast this summer. Below, you'll find where you can see him live. Daryl Hall set list What has Hall been playing live recently? Here's a sneak peek at what he took to the stage at his most recent show in England on May 25, courtesy of Set List FM. Advertisement 01.) 'The Whole World's Better' 02.) 'Maneater' (Hall & Oates song) 03.) 'Dreamtime' 04.) 'Kiss on My List' (Hall & Oates song) 05.) 'Private Eyes' (Hall & Oates song) Advertisement 06.) 'Rich Girl' (Hall & Oates song) 07.) 'Walking in Between Raindrops' 08.) 'I'm in a Philly Mood' 09.) 'Too Much Information' Advertisement 10.) 'Everytime You Go Away' (Hall & Oates song) 11.) 'Sara Smile' (Hall & Oates song) 12.) 'I Can't Go for That (No Can Do)' (Hall & Oates song) Encore 13.) 'One on One' (Hall & Oates song) Advertisement 14.) 'Pulling Mussels (From the Shell)' (Squeeze cover) 15.) 'Bad Luck' (Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes cover) 16.) 'You Make My Dreams' (Hall & Oates song) Daryl Hall new music In June 2024, Hall released his sixth solo album, 'D.' The nine-track record, produced with Eurythmics frontman Dave Stewart, beautifully captures Hall's '80s heyday sound. Just a few of our favorite tunes include the lively 'The Whole World's Better,' toe-tapping 'Too Much Information' and feel-good 'Can't Say No To You' duet with Stewart. Make sure to stick around for the penultimate song, Hall's breathy 'Why You Want to Do That (To My Head),' too. When the sax solo kicks in around the 1:20 mark, you won't be able to resists its danceable charms. This one is a sneaky rump shaker. Want to hear for yourself? Click here to stream 'D.' Glenn Tillbrook Most recently, Tillbrook's group that brought the world 'Tempted' and 'Black Coffee In Bed' put out a pair of 'Best of Squeeze' live albums. While those are great, we high recommend giving the quirky 2022 EP 'Food For Thought' a spin. For our money, the funky 'The Very First Dance' and hard-charging 'Electric Trains' are more than worthy additions to the band's already impressive canon. 'Food For Thought' can be found in its entirety here. Classic rockers on tour in 2025 A number of huge acts from before the Clinton era are hoofing it once again this year. Here are just five of our favorite unmissable hitmakers from a time before the internet you must see live in the next few months. • Sting • Rick Springfield • Foreigner • Elvis Costello • Chicago Want to see who else is out and about?
