In the last years, the rivalry between hydroponics and traditional soil gardening has grown intense, each offering distinct advantages to home gardeners. The detailed report prepared by the Princeton University of the United Nations stated that hydroponic systems can save about 90 percent of water compared with traditional soil-based agriculture and, at the same time,…
In a dazzling display of craft and cultural fusion, Pharrell Williams unveiled his Fall-Winter 2024 Men’s Collection for Louis Vuitton, transforming the Parisian runway into a vibrant homage to the American wild West. The collection, presented at the Jardin d’Acclimatation, marks a bold new chapter for the storied French maison under Williams’ creative direction. Reimagining…
Musical history is about to be made: Oasis, the iconic English rock band that took over the industry in the 1990s and famously separated in 2009, just announced that its recently-revealed upcoming world tour will include stops in North America as well.
Dubbed the Oasis Live ’25 tour and led by brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher, whose often reported on feuds famously led to the disbandment of the group decades ago, the string of concerts will hit MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, a 20-minute drive from midtown Manhattan, on August 31, 2025.
“America,” the band said in a statement earlier today. “Oasis is coming. You have one last chance to prove that you loved us all along.”
How to get tickets to the 2025 Oasis concert at MetLife
Fans can register for tickets to all North American tour dates on the official Oasis website right here already. Keep in mind that ticket sales will kick off on Ticketmaster this Friday.
It’s important to note that the band has released a statement regarding the dynamic pricing model that the members claim Ticketmaster usually employs, basically allowing the cost of a pass to fluctuate based on demand for it.
“Ticketmaster’s dynamic pricing model will not be applied to the forthcoming sale of tickets to Oasis concerts in North America,” reads the statement. “We have made this decision […] to hopefully avoid a repeat of the issues fans in the U.K. and Ireland experienced recently.”
For what it’s worth, Ticketmaster itself has said that it “does not set prices, nor offer algorithmic surge pricing technologies” in a statement to the New York Times. “Furthermore, Ticketmaster did not change prices during this sale — prices were established before the sale began.”
It’s safe to say that all of Oasis’ tour dates will be sold out, so dynamic pricing or not, try to snag a ticket ASAP.

Everyone wishes they were a New Yorker, but not everyone has that “it” factor (and by “it,” we mean anger issues and an attitude).
We recently asked our readers to define the essence of a New Yorker by filling in the blank: “I’m from New York City, of course I ___.”
Here are their most awesomeresponses.
1. Look both ways on a one-way street before I cross
New Yorkers aren’t known for being patient or lawful drivers. In fact, some car owners like to play a game called “Let’s see how close I can inch towards a pedestrian without actually hitting them” and, yeah, it’s not our favorite. The perils of crossing a New York City street are known far and wide, and so you really do have to look both ways even if you’re crossing a one-way street, just to be safe. Yes, despite the likelydecriminalization of jaywalking.
2. Hate how tourists walk
Just because they’re on vacation doesn’t mean we’re on vacation. We don’t mind tourists, but we do mind when they decide to stop in the middle of the sidewalk, sometimes abruptly, while trying to find their wayto Times Square. We’re not visiting the suburbs and stopping our cars in the middle of the road while we look for directions, so we expect the same courtesy from tourists when we’re on our way to work.
3. Know how to parallel park
Parking spots are nearly as coveted here as livable space, which means that you could find yourself looking forone for a while before you find a gap that will actually fit a vehicle. Once you do, you have a few seconds to parallel park before the entire city starts beeping behind you.
4. Fold my slice in half before eating it
Not only is this the correct way to eat a slice but it also keeps all the delicious contents of the pizza from slipping out. A 10 out of 10 in technique.
5. Love egg creams
There’s an abundance of great food to choose from in this city, but there are also the classics that have shaped locals’ palates for decades. Like bagels, egg creams have become synonymous with a city that makes them better than anywhere else. According to a recent competition, some of the best egg creams in the city can be found at Brooklyn Farmacy & Soda Fountain in Carroll Gardens; Junior’s in Downtown Brooklyn; Juliana’s Pizza in Fulton Ferry District; Egger’s Ice Cream Parlor in Staten Island; S&P Lunch in the Flatiron District; and Lexington Candy Shop on the Upper East Side.
6. Jaywalk
Why should we wait another minute for the pedestrian light to change when we could cross the street right this very second? New Yorkers are experts at knowing exactly when and how fast to walk in between oncoming cars to avoid getting hit, and it’s a survival skill that has likely saved us hours of valuable time.
With demand for slushies heating up and frozen drinks, more entrepreneurs are jumping into the ice-cold market. But with so many options for slushie machines and commercial equipment, how do you ensure you choose the right tools to mix up cold, hard profits? Investing in the best equipment for your needs paves the way for…
Where there’s an empty retail space, there’s the potential for a (temporary) Spirit Halloween store.
The iconic shop, which just got a spoof on the SNL season 50 debut, tends to sneak into abandoned buildings and assemble all of its creepy, kooky goodness during spooky season. One day, your deserted Duane Reade could be just that. The next, it could be aisles of costumes, wigs, and Halloween decor. (Ahh, bliss!)
Sometimes, it can be difficult to track down this Halloween store, so we thought we’d make things easier for your October shopping needs. Have a look at the Spirit Halloween locations by borough, according to the retailer’s website, and start brainstorming how you’ll wow your trick-or-treaters and party-goers this year.
Oh, and in case you haven’t heard, the Spirit Halloween costume predictions have just landed, if you need creative inspo. (Anyone else thinking about going the Beetlejuice route this year?)
