Roger Waters reschedule­s dates for summer 2022

- — MELISSA RUGGIERI

Roger Waters’ “This Is Not a Drill” in-the-round extravagan­za has a reschedule­d slate of dates for summer 2022.

Waters’ 36-show tour will kick off July 2, 2022, in Pittsburgh and wind its way to Atlanta’s State Farm Arena on Aug. 20, 2022 – exactly two years from its original date.

All previously purchased tickets will be honored at the new shows; contact original point of purchase for other ticket inquires.

Waters’ Atlanta concert will be his first since a 2017 appearance at Infinite Energy Arena in Duluth. The new tour – which Waters has joked is his “first farewell tour” – will include about a dozen Pink Floyd classics as well as several new songs.

Kane Brown readies fall tour

In 2019, Kane Brown launched his inaugural headlining arena tour at Infinite Energy Arena in Duluth – a homecoming of sorts for the burgeoning country star who grew up in northwest Georgia.

On Oct. 24, Brown will return to the state close to his heart when he brings his “Blessed & Free” tour to State Farm Arena.

Brown, an avid basketball fan who played in high school, is making a point to perform at the 29 arenas across the country that host NBA games (he’s apparently the first country artist to do so on the same tour). Last year, Brown played in the NBA celebrity All-star game in Chicago during Allstar festivitie­s.

The singer behind hits including “Be Like That,” “Homesick” and “One Thing Right” will be joined by Jordan Davis and Restless Road for the Atlanta show.

Registrati­on for a pre-sale is available through kanebrownl­ive.com. Tickets for the general public will go on sale at 10 a.m. April 16 via ticketmast­er.com and by calling 1-800-745-3000.
