Originally released in 2001, the album’s double-GRAMMY Award-winning title track is continuing to reach new heights, achieving rare RIAA diamond status and recently named by Rolling Stone as one of the 250 Greatest Songs of the 21st Century So Far, who proclaimed the song “has taken its place as a true standard, the closest this era has gotten to a ‘Don’t Stop Believin’’ or ‘Africa’ of its own” and declared: “it’s the music equivalent of the best soy latte that you ever had.”
To coincide with the anniversary, Train is set to release new music this spring. The band will celebrate their tour announcement and kick off the milestone anniversary in NYC this week with very special performances at the TODAY Show on Wednesday and LIVE with Kelly and Mark on Thursday.

Over the last three decades, Walker has achieved massive success both as a solo artist and in bands (Marvelous 3), while also cultivating a reputation as an in-demand producer by working and collaborating with high-profile artists including Taylor Swift, Avril Lavigne, P!nk, Katy Perry, Fall Out Boy, Green Day, and more.
Train is comprised of frontman Pat Monahan (lead vocals), Hector Maldonado (bass, vocals), Jerry Becker (keyboards, vocals), Butch Walker (guitar, vocals), and Matt Musty (drums, vocals).

Today, record-breaking comedian Matt Rife announced an extension of his highly successful Stay Golden World Tour, with a run of 40+ new dates playing off next year across North America, Europe and the UK. These add to his previously announced shows across Australia, New Zealand, Singapore and Canada. The run of new shows, produced by Live Nation, kick off on Saturday, February 28 in Newark, NJ at Prudential Center, before continuing with shows in Washington, DC, Tampa, Louisville, Amsterdam, Dublin, London, Rome, Los Angeles, Nashville, Chicago, Toronto and more before wrapping up on Tuesday, December 29 in Oklahoma City, OK at Paycom Center.
The tour will make a Bend stop at Hayden Homes Amphitheater on August 27, 2026.
In select markets, Rife will introduce a new 360° in-the-round stage design, giving fans a completely immersive experience. With the addition of these shows, Matt will be heading to 10+ countries next year with a total of 60+ shows.
The 2026 leg follows this year’s Stay Golden Tour, which saw Rife play shows across San Diego, Austin, Philadelphia, and more — including two sold-out nights at New York’s Madison Square Garden, making him the youngest comedian to sell out the venue.
Rife has shattered multiple venue records across the country on this tour, including the most single-event tickets ever sold at both Columbus’ Nationwide Arena and Seattle’s Climate Pledge Arena, as well as the all-time ticket sales record at Manchester’s SNHU Arena and the paid seat record for the Van Andel Arena in Grand Rapids, MI. He also set a new benchmark at Anaheim’s Honda Center, breaking the record for most tickets sold by a comedian in the venue’s history.
His Stay Golden era builds on the success of his ProbleMATTic World Tour, where Rife sold over 600,000 tickets across 250+ shows in under 48 hours following its 2023 announcement. That global run included stops across North America, Europe, the UK, and Australia, solidifying his status as one of comedy’s biggest breakout stars.
Rife’s next special for Netflix premieres globally on December 2nd, 2025. Matt Rife: Unwrapped — A Christmas Crowd Work Special, “explores gifts, traditions and who’s made it on the naughty or nice list this year.” Directed by Erik Griffin, the special was taped in Phoenix, Arizona. Rife also executive produced along with Christina Shams. His company, Carpe Noctem, produced the special along with Avesta Entertainment and Above Average.
TICKETS: Tickets for all newly announced dates will be available starting Wednesday, November 12 at 12pm local time with an artist presale. Additional presales will run throughout the week ahead of the general onsale beginning Friday, November 14 at 12pm local time at MattRifeOfficial.com.
