If you were a fan of the ‘Joker” movie…you’ll be happy to hear The team behind it is ready to laugh it up once again, with filmmaker Todd Phillips officially confirming he has completed a script for a sequel to his Oscar-winning 2019 film.

Parmalee Star Matt Thomas says they weren’t always called Parmalee “About the time we turned twelve, we wanted some guitars to start playing music. Next thing I know our little cousin Barry I see him playing drums. So, we started this band called Jerry Thomas and the Thomas Brothers Band.” Matt and the boys will be at Arnold Park Iowa at the Roof Garden Ballroom June 23rd.

The Predator will not just go away….The trailer for the new Predator movie, “Prey”. has been released. It’s a prequel set 300 years ago, with Native Americans fighting a Predator. The two-minute preview for the film, which will premiere on Hulu on Aug. 5, teases the Comanche Nation 300 years in the past fighting against a Predator.

LANCO has revealed the dates of their Low Class Lovers Tour.  It launches June 16th in North Lawrence, Ohio and wraps October 22tn in Colorado Springs.  Hit up the Lanco Facebook page for details. And  Dan + Shay posted a clip on Facebook of two people slow dancing during a recent soundcheck at AT&T Stadium.  How’d they get in the place so early?  They’re Shay Mooney’s parents.

“Esquire” ranked all of WILL FERRELL’s movies.  The top three are “Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy”. . . “Stranger than Fiction”. . . and “Elf”.  “Daddy’s Home 2” finished last.

Do country artists space-out while they’re performing?  Of course.  Somebody asked Lady A’s Dave Haywood about it and he said most of the time he’s focused on the task at hand, but every once in a while . . .it’s all about the Chick-Fil-A backstage…then he snaps back. You kinda drift in and out.  So maybe next time you see them…take a Chick-Fil-A bag…Dave may just say HOWDY!

Imagine paying good money to see Chris Stapleton live… only to take a nap. That’s exactly what an Australian couple did—out cold in the middle of the concert!

Blake Shelton just can't seem to stop with all the onstage PDA.  First Trace Adkins told him no more kisses on the cheek.  Now this . . .A video of Blake bringing an 84-year-old lady on stage for a birthday hug is making the rounds online.  It was pretty cute.  It happened two weekends ago at his show in Greensboro, North Carolina.  She was out in the crowd with a sign that said, "May I hug you for my 84th birthday?" (WARNING:  He says the word "damn" early on in the video, and the song lyrics include the phrase "wild-a**."  She shows up on stage around 1:20.)
