Your favorite over-the-top rockers from Down Under are headed stateside.
From August through November, King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard will play marathon three-hour (!) sets at amphitheaters, music halls, stadiums, parks, and forums all over North America in support of their electrifying new album “Flight b741.”
That includes a pair of gigs at Queens, NY’s Forest Hills Stadium on Friday, Aug. 16, and Saturday, Aug. 17.
“This is gonna be MEGA. New tunes, new places, big vibes, big love,” the psychedelic prog group shared on Instagram. “No set break, endless party.”
And while we don’t know what songs will make the set list — the band has released 26 studio albums over the past 12 years after all — we do know that their live show is one you won’t want to miss.
Thankfully, last-minute tickets are available for all upcoming concerts.
At the time of publication, the lowest price we could find on tickets was $26 before fees on Vivid Seats.
Other KGLW shows have seats starting anywhere from $30 to $149 before fees.

King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard new music
On Friday, Aug. 9, King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard dropped their 26th studio album “Flight b741.”
And it may be in contention for the year’s best.
Made up of ten blistering tracks, “Flight b741” takes off as soon as the first strings are strummed and then refuses to pump the brakes once it hits cruising altitude.
Although the record is made up solely of A+ smashes —no song here wouldn’t sound out of place on a Zeppelin record from their ’60s heyday — keep an eye out for standouts like the rollicking, bluesy “Antarctica,” nervy rocker “Raw Feel” and singalong anthem in the making “Field of Vision.”
That’s not to mention the goofy, country-fried disco of “Hog Calling Contest,” the Boz Scaggs-esque “Le Risque” or barroom banger “Flight b741.”
Somehow, each tune is better than the last here — for our money, “Flight b741” sounds like it was conceived in a puff of smoke from 1967 — and we can’t get enough.
Heck, this might be the first flight we’ve ever taken that we wished was longer.
Want to give the album a spin? You can find the record in its entirety here.
