It was a relatively light schedule of tour announcements this week with four rock and metal acts announcing new dates. Plus there were a giant reunion, a handful of festival and music benefit announcements.

Leading the way on the tour front this week was the Dave Matthews Band, who announced a handful of November stops including multiple nights at New York's Madison Square Garden and the Mohegan Sun Arena. It's also that time of year for Trans-Siberian Orchestra to hit you with a wealth of dates where you can catch their annual Christmas extravaganza. This year, they're celebrating 20 years of "The Lost Christmas Eve" production.

The big news of the week was Linkin Park's reunion with new co-vocalist Emily Armstrong and drummer Colin Brittain joining the band's lineup. After their Thursday global livestream, the band announced a world tour that includes a pair of U.S. dates.

It's also a week in which Neil Young has announced his "Harvest Moon" benefit with Stephen Stills and Masanga, the Hell's Heroes festival completed their 2025 lineup and some of punk's finest were announced for Punk in the Park San Diego.
