Set to Have Fun in Los Angeles
August 11, 2024 by Traci Turner
Nashville rockers Kings of Leon are invading the Forum this month as part of their Can We Please Have Fun world tour. Supporting their 2024 album of the same name, the tour has sold out multiple cities and includes Phantogram as the opener.
“Can We Please Have Fun” dropped in May, boosted by singles “Mustang,” “Split Screen,” “Nothing to Do,” and “Nowhere to Run.”
Brothers Jared, Caleb, and Nathan Followill, and their cousin Matthew Followill will kick off the accompanying tour on Wednesday in Austin, popping by the Kia Forum on August 22.
Upon the album’s release, Caleb told KROQ’s Nicole Alvarez, the album’s title came from a list of ideas he had, and “when I said, ‘can we please have fun,’ Jared was like, ‘Yeah, I like that one.’ We kind of went along and I didn’t really think that was gonna end up being the title, but I felt like the more the album came together, it felt like, like you said, like it was a bigger statement than just us wanting to enjoy ourselves in the process of making an album, it seemed like the whole world has kind of been feeling that way.”
In addition to new material, we can expect the Kings of Leon songs that made us love them: “Use Somebody,” “Waste a Moment,” “Knocked Up,” “Revelry,” “Pyro,” “Wait for Me,” “Closer,” “Notion,” and of course, “Sex on Fire.”
Tickets for the Forum show are still available and priced like reasonable concert tickets! Nab yourself some now!
