Billy Corgan has announced a European tour dubbed A Night of Mellon Collie and Infinite Sadness.
The trek, which launches September in London, will celebrate the 1995 Smashing Pumpkins album, Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness, “on the grandest scale possible.”
“Opera and rock both tell stories of heightened emotions,” Corgan writes in a Facebook post. “I am excited for both fans of my music and traditional opera fans to hear some truly inspired work; for the balance here is to honor both traditions in a magisterial way.”
The tour will also make stops in Antwerp, Belgium; Paris and Madrid. For the full list of dates and all ticket info, visit SmashingPumpkins.com.
Melon Collie and the Infinite Sadness marked the third Pumpkins album and spawned the singles “Bullet with Butterfly Wings,” “1979,” “Tonight, Tonight” and “Zero.” It’s been certified Diamond by the RIAA, signifying 10 million units certified.
Corgan similarly celebrated Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness in 2025 with a run of shows at the Lyric Opera House in his hometown of Chicago.

Fans of The Beatles will have a new reason to plan a trip to London next year.
It was just announced that 3 Savile Row, the early location of the band’s Apple Corps headquarters, in Mayfair, London, will open its doors as the first-ever official Beatles fan experience.
The Beatles at 3 Savile Row, opening in 2027, will consist of seven floors filled with never-before-seen archival material from Apple Corps Ltd, along with rotating exhibits, a recreation of the original studio where the band recorded Let it Be, a fan store and more. Fans will also be able to access the building’s rooftop where The Beatles performed their famous Jan. 30, 1969, rooftop concert, their final public performance together.
“It was such a trip to get back to 3 Savile Row recently and have a look around,” says Paul McCartney. “There are so many special memories within the walls, not to mention the rooftop. The team have put together some really impressive plans and I’m excited for people to see it when it’s ready.”
Ringo Starr adds, “Wow, it’s like coming home.”
And that’s not all. It seems a second yet-to-be-revealed experience is also in the works, with details to be announced at a later date. Fans can register now to be the first to hear more news when its announced.
Not to be confused with the tech company Apple, Apple Corps LTD is a multimedia company founded by The Beatles in the 1960s, and included Apple Records, which the band launched in 1968.

In a 2025 interview with Rolling Stone, Sammy Hagar said that he hasn’t spoken to his Van Halen bandmate Alex Van Halen in 21 years. But that distance didn’t stop Sammy from wishing Alex a happy 73rd birthday on Friday.
“Alex, I know these wonderful magical times have passed, and of course will never happen again,” Hagar wrote on Instagram next to a video of Van Halen’s final bows at a 1995 show in Austin, Texas. “But I want to wish you all the peace, love and happiness in the world as well as a happy birthday.”
The post included a comment from former Van Halen bassist Michael Anthony, who wrote, “Definitely good times!! Happy Birthday Al.”
While Alex has never come out and said what his issues are with Sammy, he did seem to diss him in his 2024 book Brothers, by not even acknowledging the years Sammy was frontman of Van Halen, which produced four #1 albums for the band.
In fact, the book focused on only the David Lee Roth years, and Alex only sort of acknowledged Hagar and their third frontman Gary Cherone, by writing, “we had a lot of other singers over the years.”

Lenny Kravitz is featured on the just released reimagination of DE’WAYNE’s track “highway robbery” with the “Are You Gonna Go My Way” singer appearing in the song’s new video, directed by Joe Mischo.
“I first became aware of DE’WAYNE on Instagram and I was immediately drawn in to his expression,” says Kravitz. “After I started following him, he reached out, and our conversations naturally grew into both this collaboration and friendship.”
He adds, “DE’WAYNE is refreshing and dynamic and I am here to support a young black rock and roll musician.”
The song first appeared on DE’WAYNE’s 2025 album june, and he notes that with Kravitz’s contribution, the song “is a rock ’n’ roll glam–inspired record born from a simple intention: put more love back into the world,” adding, “In a way, it feels like my introduction. So… hello.”
Kravitz is set to play Atlantic City, New Jersey, on May 16, followed by two shows in California. He’ll then launch a European tour in Florence, Italy, on July 12. A complete list of dates can be found at LennyKravitz.com.

Casting has been announced for a new BBC series that will focus on The Beatles’ early days as a band.
The six-part series, Hamburg Days, is based on the autobiography by German artist and musician Klaus Voormann, and is set in the ’60s when Voormann and photographer Astrid Kirchherr meet a young Liverpool rock band, who are playing in the clubs of Hamburg’s St. Pauli’s red-light district.
The film is set to star Irish actor Rhys Mannion, best known for the Irish thriller It Is In Us All, as John Lennon; Ellis Murphy as Paul McCartney; Harvey Brett as George Harrison; and Rivals’ Louis Landau as Stu Sutcliffe, with Patrick Gilmore playing Pete Best.
Also starring in the film are Luna Jordan as Kirchherr and Casper von Bülow as Voormann.
“Hamburg Days is the fascinating story of how, in the space of two short years, a raw young band from Liverpool honed their music skills in Hamburg, before returning home to become an overnight worldwide success,” Sue Deeks, head of scripted pre-buy acquisitions at the BBC, said when the project was first announced in December. “It is an incredible story, accompanied (of course) by an amazing soundtrack!”
Filming on the series has begun in Hamburg, Munich and Liverpool.
This isn’t the only Beatles story in the works. Sam Mendes is directing The Beatles — A Four-Film Cinematic Event, which consist of four films, each told from the perspective of one of the band members. Due to hit theaters in April 2028, the film stars Paul Mescal as McCartney, Harris Dickinson as Lennon, Joseph Quinn as Harrison and Barry Keoghan as Ringo Starr.
Ann Wilson’s Nothing But Love,’ co-written by Burt Bacharach (Tawt Tunes/Ann Wilson)
Heart’s Ann Wilson has released a new song, “Nothing But Love,” a track she co-wrote with the late songwriting legend Burt Bacharach, who passed away in 2023.
”I wrote ‘Nothing But Love’ with Burt Bacharach back in 1999, performed it a few times and then I sort of forgot about it,” says Wilson. “A friend recently asked me about the song and he suggested I finally take it to the studio and release it properly.”
She adds, “I’m proud of what we came up with and I feel quite lucky to have been able to work with Burt. His light remains bright.”
The song is now available via digital outlets and is accompanied by a music video featuring never-before-seen footage of Wilson’s upcoming documentary, In My Voice, directed by Barbara Hall.
Wilson and Hall are set to embark on a screening and Q&A tour in support of In My Voice. The tour begins May 11 in Seattle and wraps June 1 in Boston. Wilson also recently announced a new tour with her band Tripsitter, which kicks off Sept. 11 in The Villages, Florida. A complete list of dates can be found at AnnWilson.com.
