Links We Love

Drunk Neil Patrick Harris, Friday Night Tykes and more links we love right now

Editor's note:There's so much that's beautiful, funny, smart and informative on the Internet. Problem is, there's also a bunch of garbage. Here's the best of the web right now:

1. Neil Patrick Harris gets aggressive with the margaritas while in Mexico. Like most everything, NPH is way cooler about it than you. Not me, though. I’m awesome when I’m drunk.

2. Friday Night Tykes on the Esquire Network will reinforce every negative stereotype about Texas football. Some of the coaching might seem excessive, but if the 8- and 9-year-olds don’t learn smashmouth football now, then how will they ever start when they’re 11-year-olds?

3. Here are 6 fan ideas so good they were adopted by the creators. Obviously there are some spoilers, but the one regarding how Gwen Stacy and Norman Osborn got together in the Spider-Man comics is some serious dedication. I mean, what are we to believe, that this is some sort of magic xylophone?

4. Satanists unveil design for Oklahoma Capitol monument. The 7-foot-tall, goat-headed Satan sits on a throne with two children beside him. It seems appropriate, because Oklahoma is hell. That’s a burn.

5. American Girl dolls can be freakin’ expensive. I’m going to plead ignorance on this entire subject, but I’m told that these numbers are indeed high and that the new dolls are subpar because they lack historical backgrounds. So, there you go.

Who doesn't love a margarita or 14?

Eclectic singer David Byrne has a big 2025 planned, hitting the road for a large tour in support of a new album, including a stop at the Music Hall at Fair Park in Dallas on November 28 and 29.

The album, Who Is the Sky? (due out September 5), is Byrne's first new album since 2018’s acclaimed and award-winning American Utopia.

The extensive tour, which will include 26 cities and 43 dates in the U.S, and Canada alone, starts on September 14 in Providence, Rhode Island, running domestically through December 6 before heading abroad for 25 more dates in 2026.

In addition to Dallas, Byrne will go to Austin for two concerts, November 25 and 26.

Byrne, who first came to fame with the band Talking Heads, was omnipresent with American Utopia, which morphed from an album and tour into a Broadway show that was subsequently filmed by Spike Lee for HBO.

On the new album, he is joined by musical friends old and new, including St. Vincent (the Dallas singer with whom he made the 2012 album Love This Giant), Paramore’s Hayley Williams, The Smile drummer Tom Skinner, and American Utopia percussionist Mauro Refosco.

The touring band will comprise 13 musicians, singers, and dancers, including members of the American Utopia band, all of whom will be mobile throughout the set.

Tickets for the tour go on sale on Friday, June 13 at whoisthesky.davidbyrne.com. Fans can sign up for the artist presale, which will begin on Tuesday, June 10 at 10 am ET through Thursday, June 12 at 10 pm.
