Adele
Simon Emmett*Adele fans will have to wait another day to try to buy tickets for her upcoming Las Vegas residency. A ticket presale for the Weekends With Adele residency at The Colosseum at Caesar’s Palace scheduled for Tuesday (Dec. 7) has been delayed to Wednesday now due to an Amazon Web Services outage that caused outages across the internet for sites including Disney+, Netflix and dating app Tinder.
The outage began just after 7 a.m. PST, according to the website DownDetector, and is affecting everything from smart home devices like Alexa to cash app services like Venmo.
Tickets had been scheduled to go on sale at 10 a.m. PST on Tuesday through Ticketmaster’s Verified Fan – a program that allows fans to register for tickets ahead of time and gives Ticketmaster time to weed out resellers – but company officials confirmed that Adele tickets never went on sale and no tickets have been sold.
“Due to an Amazon Web Services (AWS) outage impacting companies globally, all Adele Verified Fan Presales scheduled for today have been moved to tomorrow to ensure a better experience. Fans will receive an email with updated info on their new presale time,” a tweet from Ticketmaster reads.
MUNA have officially shared full details of their long awaited fourth studio album, Dancing On The Wall, which is scheduled to arrive on May 8.
The news comes with the release of the record’s title track and its accompanying official video, giving fans their first real look at what the trio’s new chapter sounds and feels like.
To mark the occasion, the group are planning a run of intimate underplay performances in Los Angeles, New York and London during release week. It will be a special opportunity to catch MUNA up close before they step back onto larger stages later this year.
Opening up about the project, the band described the title song as a standout moment within their body of work.
They shared: “Dancing On The Wall is possibly our favorite song we’ve made as a band. We think it’s all the best parts of MUNA – it’s coming from a really emotional and lonely place, but the song itself makes us feel powerful and euphoric. It’s written in the moment that the clock strikes midnight at the ball, and you have to give up the fantasy. In this case, it’s the fantasy of loving someone or something that can’t love you back.”
The 13 song album was produced by Naomi McPherson, allowing the band to take full creative ownership of the sound and direction. It is a project that pulls listeners straight to the dancefloor while still keeping its vulnerability front and center.
MUNA, made up of Katie Gavin and Josette Maskin alongside McPherson, have continued to build momentum over the years and were personally chosen by Harry Styles as the opening act for his first solo tour. Since then, they have also performed with Taylor Swift on the Eras Tour, in addition to sharing bills with Lorde, boygenius and Phoebe Bridgers.
Dancing On The Wall follows their 2022 self titled album, which marked their first release as independent artists after signing to Phoebe Bridgers’ Saddest Factory Records in 2021.
Fans can stream the title track across all major platforms now. For tickets to MUNA’s upcoming shows, visit laylo.com/whereismuna/m/munatour.
