2 summer music tours headed for the Twin Cities
One is an outdoor celebration in Somerset featuring Train and REO Speedwagon, while the other is a bit more theatrical with Alice Cooper and Rob Zombie.
SOMERSET, Wis. — With so-called winter temps on the rise, Minnesota music fans can be forgiven if they have summer concerts on the brain.
Add two more shows to the list, with announcements Monday of tours that will make stops in the Twin Cities and western Wisconsin.
The first is The Summer Road Trip 2024 tour, a split bill with Train and REO Speedwagon, which will take place outdoors at the Somerset Amphitheater on July 8. General admission tickets go on sale Friday, Feb. 2 at LiveNation.com, with presale opportunities starting Wednesday, Jan. 31.

If harder, more theatrical rock is your thing, the Freaks on Parade Tour 2024 may be just the ticket. The legendary Alice Cooper is teaming up with Rob Zombie on this twin bill, along with special guests Ministry and Filter, for a show at Xcel Energy Center Aug. 25.

MINNEAPOLIS — The Minnesota Lynx face the New York Liberty in Game 4 of the WNBA finals for the last time on their home court. It is do-or-die after Wednesday’s loss put them down one.

A Golden Valley couple is making wood carvings to generate funds for groups raising awareness of opioid dangers.
GOLDEN VALLEY, Minn. — In the last couple of weeks, some good news came out about overdose deaths. They are declining, rapidly in some states. That deserves our attention.
But what needs our attention too, is that there are not zero deaths. The news remains grim.
In the heat of the moment thousands and thousands of times a young person takes a pill to take the edge off, and not knowing what’s in it, dies. That’s what happened to a young man named Adam. And his parents in Golden Valley are doing all they can to keep other parents from facing the future they face.
They are carving items from wood that other woodworkers wouldn’t touch and making it beautiful. They make carvings, vases, menorahs, bowls and everything in between. The work is called Art of the Heart, and it’s sold for a profit they see none of.
All of the money goes to Change the Outcome, an organization that educates kids about the dangers of opioids.
The Michaelynns are holding their annual sale at their Golden Valley home from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. The address is 500 Valleywood Circle.
