Rock Band KISS sets tour date at the Target Center

Cover Shoot for the band KISS
Celebrating 35 years of music, rock band KISS and their appropriately named "KISS Alive 35" tour will be stopping in Minneapolis at the Target Center on Saturday November 7th at 7:30 p.m. The Tour is a compilation of some of the band's best and most iconic hits like "Rock and Roll All Nite" and "Detroit Rock City" as well as music off of the band's newest album "Sonic Boom". "Sonic Boom" was the first new material that KISS released in over a decade and critics are saying that it may be the best KISS record yet. The album will be released exclusively at Walmart on October 6th.


Unique to this concert is that it is one of the first fan-routed tours ever. 10,000 individual cities across the US and Canada sent in campaigns, videos and letters to have one of the most widely known bands of all time play in their home town. Buy KISS tickets today!

If you want to experience a packed house at the Target center in Minneapolis, Minnesota, Grab a few Timberwolves Tickets for the game versus the Cleveland Cavaliers on October 30Th. There probably won't be too many Timberwolves sell outs this year but I would be surprised if this game doesn't come close. The game is on a Friday which always helps sell Timberwolves Tickets. I will see you at the Target center because this might be the one Timberwolves Game that I check out this year. GO WOLVES!!!

Taylor Swift's Fearless Tour will stop at the Target Center Sunday, October 11 at 7:00. One of the most highly anticipated Country Music tours of the year, the Taylor Swift Fearless show will combine country music songs and sounds with a Britney Spears like production quality to produce a one of a kind show that should not be missed.

Joining Taylor Swift on this tour is good friend American Idol's Kellie Pickler. The two girls co-wrote Kellie's current single "Best Days of Your Life" as revenge against a boy who wronged Kellie and Taylor provides backup vocals on track as well as the rest of Kellie's album.

Opening for the show is Gloriana, the new country group who just released the hit of the summer, "Wild At Heart". The group along with pumping up the crowd is out to promote their new album that will drop later this fall.

Tickets to this show are already sold out but can be found online and through ticket brokers like Ticket King. Buy soon before even these sources are all out!

Minnesota Timberwolves announce big changes and a new head coach

Timberwolves Player #33 taking a Jump Shot
Earlier this week the Minnesota Timberwolves announced the Kurt Rambis will be the new head coach for the team. Coach Rambis wasted no time making it clear that he was in sync with David Kahn and that Timberwolves fans should expect to see big changes this season. The Timberwolves roster was shaken up and stripped down almost to nothing. New players are being brought in, with the hopes that the MN Timberwolves will return to their Kevin Garnett glory days... when Twin Cities basketball fans were eager and excited to go to games. Even if the playing itself doesn't pull people into the Target Center, potential newcomer Ricky Rubio sure will. The 18 year old Spanish Heart-Throb is exactly the "star" player that the Timberwolves need to generate excitement and increase ticket sales.


While I wouldn't go as far as saying that the Timberwolves will sell out the Target Center, I do think there will be more demand for T-Wolves tickets this season than there has been in recent years and if you don't want to be left out of the newest Twin Cities sports trend I would suggest scooping up tickets now.
