    Classic rock acts headline Dallas radio team Bo and Jim's big bash

    For the sixth year in a row, classic rock station Lonestar 92.5 FM is bringing back the Bo and Jim Bash, taking place on August 18 at Starplex Pavilion with a lineup that includes Foreigner, Cheap Trick, Jason Bonham’s Led Zeppelin Experience, and Stone Cold Sweat featuring Bo and Jim.

    "We call it the Bo and Jim Bash because we’re going to bash you right in the head with a rock 'n' roll right cross!" says Bo Roberts, one-half of the Bo & Jim Morning duo. Bo Roberts and Jim White are the longtime morning team; for 35 years, they've been waking people up in Dallas-Fort Worth with comedy antics and characters.

    The radio show date will be one stop on a worldwide tour for Foreigner, joined by Cheap Trick and special guest Jason Bonham on the U.S. dates.

    To coincide with the tour, Rhino will release a 40th-anniversary album culling 40 tracks throughout the years, entitled 40 – Forty Hits From Forty Years. 40, get it? This album is a compilation of original hits and several tracks from the current lineup with Kelly Hansen on vocals including "Can't Slow Down," "Too Late," and "When It Comes To Love."

    The album also features two new songs: "The Flame Still Burns" and "Give My Life For Love," a brand new song by Jones. Rhino is kicking off a year-long catalog promotion with the January 24th picture disc release of Head Games.

    Last year's Bo and Jim Bash was at the Verizon Theater and was headlined by Boston. Patrick Davis, programming VP for iHeartMedia Dallas, which is Lonestar 92.5's parent company, says its one of his favorite events of the year. "The guys invite bands they have played on the radio for years to enjoy a great night out with thousands of their closest friends," he says.

    Don Davis, program director for 92.5, reminds us that Foreigner is coming off a sold-out show last month in Dallas. "And we have been after Cheap Trick since year one, so to say we are excited about this line up would be an understatement," he says. He's also enthused about Jason Bonham’s Led Zeppelin Experience and Bo and Jim’s Stone Cold Sweat.

    A special pre-sale for Lonestar 92.5 Workforce members takes places Thursday, March 16, 10 am-10 pm local time. To join the Workforce email list, visit Lonestar925.com. Tickets go on sale to the general public on March 17 at 10 am at Lonestar925.com. Fans can also win tickets to Bo and Jim Bash VI by listening to Lonestar 92.5 for a 'Win It Before You Can Buy It' promotion March 20-24.

    iHeartMedia Dallas owns and operates KHKS-FM, KDMX-FM, KDGE-FM, KEGL-FM, KZPS-FM, KFXR-AM, and is part of iHeartMedia.

    The Joke Has Landed

    New comedy club at Toyota Music Factory in Irving gets set for laughs

    This is the fifth Punch Line location.

    It's almost time for Punch Line Irving to open its doors, and Dave Chappelle is at the ready. The famous comedian will christen the new comedy club with four sold-out shows on December 17 and 18, but there's plenty more funny business in store for 2026.

    First announced in November, this is Punch Line's fifth location — and second in Texas, the first opened in Houston in 2024 — and it's taking up residence at the Toyota Music Factory. The 240-seat club plans to host more than 350 shows and private events annually, featuring a blend of high-wattage celebrity and homegrown talent.

    Its decor nods to the brand's belief that comedy is a sport, with feature wall showcasing punching bags and boxing bells signed by "heavy hitter" performers.

    The menu also echoes the theme, with such cocktails as the Bellringer (bourbon, lemonade, and Liquid Death half-and-half iced tea), Ringside Ranch Water (blanco tequila, hibiscus, lime, and soda), and the Espresso All-Star, their take on the espresso martini. Food includes Punch Line favorites like the Mic Drop Burger, Punch Line Nachos, and Homemade Punch Pop Tarts in bourbon apple or strawberry cream.

    There is also a second, more flexible space outside the main showroom called The Callback Bar that's designed to host smaller performances, as well as a furnished patio.

    This is the fifth Punch Line location.

    The talent gets treated as well as the audience, with a private comics lounge in place of a traditional dressing room. Designed as a shared gathering space, it sports a custom media wall showing the live-show feed, a dressing table, a private ensuite restroom, and a hospitality station.

    Punch Line makes it a point to support the local comedy scene, and its Irving location will be no exception. Twenty-five cents from each ticket at participating shows benefits Comedy Gives Back, a nonprofit organization providing financial grants and resources to stand-up comedians in need. The club also hosted its first open mic on December 9 to welcome the community, with participating comics donating nonperishable items to the North Texas Food Bank.

    Don't fret if you didn't snag tickets to Dave Chappelle — big names like Leslie Jones, Tone Bell, Pete Holmes, and Christina P. all have shows scheduled in the first few months of 2026 and tickets are on sale now.
