Rapper/singer Post Malone will continue his road warrior ways with the upcoming "If Y'all Weren’t Here, I’d Be Crying" Tour, which will make a stop at Dos Equis Pavilion in Dallas on August 5.

The tour is in support of his forthcoming album, Austin, the fifth of his career. It will be released July 28, shortly before the Dallas concert.

The 24-city tour, starting in Noblesville, Indiana on July 8, gives Post Malone just a short break, as he's finishing up the European leg of his 22-23 "Twelve Carat Tour" on May 20. In fact, Dallas-Fort Worth fans just saw the Grapevine-raised superstar perform, as he played in both Dallas and Fort Worth in October 2022.

This time around, he'll only be stopping in two Texas cities; the Dallas concert will be followed by Houston on August 8. Austin fans will have to make do with having a whole album named for their city.

Austin is likely to be as popular as Post Malone's previous four albums, each of which reached the top 5 on the Billboard 200, with two - 2017's Beerbongs and Bentleys and 2019's Hollywood's Bleeding - going to No. 1. The first single from the new album, “Mourning,” will be released on Friday, May 19.

“I love y’all so very much and I’m so excited to get out and do some more shows for y’all," said Post Malone in a statement. "Help me put a baby through college and come on out. Some cool new production, new songs, and a very very handsome man up on stage. Sending love to you and yours.”

Citi cardmembers will have access to presale tickets beginning on Wednesday, May 17 at 10 am until Thursday, May 18 at 11:59 pm through the Citi Entertainment program.

Additional presales will run throughout the week ahead of the general on-sale beginning on Friday, May 19 at 10 am at livenation.com.

The tour will also offer a variety of different VIP packages and experiences for fans to take their concert experience to the next level. Packages vary but include premium tickets, access to the World Pong League VIP Lounge, exclusive VIP gift items, and more.

The life of an actor is far from rosy in dramedy Misty Green

Rosalind Eleazar in Misty Green.

For every well-known/successful actor in Hollywood, there are thousands of others whose lives are more tenuous as they struggle to find work. The new film Misty Green is about one such actor who, after a period in the limelight, now finds herself on the outskirts of the industry, just hoping to find her way back in.

Misty (Rosalind Eleazar) won an Emmy for a 2000s-era TV show that still gets her recognition, but not much work. Still living in the apartment of a recently-deceased man with whom she was having an affair, Misty spends her days sleeping in and her nights getting blitzed on alcohol and drugs. She seems to be heading nowhere fast until a few things coincide to break up her routine.

The man’s wife (Amy Landecker) shows up and tells her she has seven days to vacate the apartment; Misty’s brother, Jay (Daniel Kaluuya) — who is bipolar — arrives after being kicked out of his facility for non-payment; and Jordan (Chris Rock), a former colleague with whom she had a falling-out, reappears in her life, offering a possible chance to rehabilitate her image.

Written and directed by Rock (his first feature since 2014’s Top Five), the film is a funny and excruciating look at how the entertainment industry might actually work. Misty is her own worst enemy thanks to late nights fraternizing with unsavory characters like Zach (Adam Driver), who deals in drugs and women in equal measure, but her frustration proves warranted when her agent, Randy (Topher Grace), and casting directors like Rhonda (Tracie Thoms) hardly give her the time of day.

Misty tries her best to stay positive, but when jobs like singing in a bar are the best she can do, the mountain seems insurmountable. Rock does an effective job of demonstrating the elements that are within and without Misty’s control that affect her ability to regain her position in the industry. The chip on her shoulder is almost as big as the bias some have against her, and other negative circumstances don’t help matters much.

There are many small touches that Rock and his crew put in the film to give it an air of authenticity. Filming in Los Angeles (a rarity these days), Rock uses both subtle and overt shots of homeless people in the city, suggesting that the line between the haves and have-nots is a fine one, especially with Misty on the verge of not having a place to live. He also has cameos from a few of his funny friends, including a bit of meta-casting of Anthony Anderson (who has faded a bit after starring in Black-ish) in a bit part as a cop.

Eleazar, a British actor best known for appearing on the Apple TV show Slow Horses, is a magnetic presence as Misty. The character herself is somewhat cringey in her decision-making, and Eleazar sells every bit of her righteous indignation and self-defeating actions. The supporting cast is great across the board, including Rock, Driver, Kaluuya, Thoms, Grace, Anna Kendrick, and Rich Sommer.

Misty Green makes you rage against the Hollywood machine, laugh at the various ways different people deal with its maddening quirks, and hide behind your fingers as Misty chooses options that don’t help, either voluntarily or because her back is against the wall. It’s a powerhouse of acting that gives a unique angle on the inner workings of Hollywood, one that ironically might be competing for awards at year’s end.
