Concerts to see this week: Tribute to Slim Dunlap, Post Malone, Tennis

Farewell tours, stadium shows, and a memorial for a beloved Minnesota musician highlight the concert calendar this week.
Here are the shows happening around the Twin Cities throughout the week of May 19.
Monday, May 19, at First Avenue
Local musicians, artists, and fans are giving Bob "Slim" Dunlap the tribute he deserves. Following his death in December at age 73, a memorial and tribute concert has been organized by members of his family.
Dunlap was best known for his time playing guitar in The Replacements. He joined the group in 1987, replacing founding guitarist Bob Stinson. He's also fondly remembered for a pair of solo albums released in the '90s that didn't break through, but found an audience that has held them up for years as underappreciated gems. (That audience notably includes Bruce Springsteen.)
The Celebration of Life will feature performances from Trailer Trash, The Cactus Blossoms (duo), an ensemble going by the Slimboree Singers, and other special guests, including Curtiss A, Dave Boquist, Gini Dodds, John Eller, The Daily Show co-creator Lizz Winstead, Brad Zellar, and members of the Slim Dunlap Band.
Tuesday, May 20, at Palace Theatre
The elder statesmen of industrial rock are shingin a light on their often overlooked early work. Al Jourgensen and co. will focus on a pair of albums, With Sympathy and Twitch, during this tour.
Those first two albums were closer to synth pop than the dark industrial rock that Ministry would later become known for. They'll be joined by My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult and Die Krupps at the Palace Theatre.
Tuesday, May 20, at U.S. Bank Stadium
The "Circles" singer's "BIG ASS Stadium Tour" is rolling into U.S. Bank Stadium with Jelly Roll and Sierra Ferrell (who headlines Surly Festival Field later in the summer).
Malone is promising a mix of music from across his career, including F-1 Trillion, his Grammy-winning shift into country music released last year.
Wednesday, May 21, at First Avenue
The husband and wife duo of Patrick Riley and Alaina Moore recently announced this would be their final tour as Tennis. Their show at First Avenue comes after the recent release of Face Down in the Garden, which will be their final studio album. "The highs and lows of touring are unnatural, disorienting," Moore said on the release of "12 Blown Tires," the first single from the indie-pop duo's swan song.
"On the shoulder of I-40, I began writing the lyrics to '12 Blown Tires.' It is a constellation of memories from the road, and of our marriage, two endeavors that are completely, hopelessly entangled."
Saturday, May 24, at Orpheum Theatre
The Grammy-winning rapper and actor might seem like a surprising fit with the Orpheum Theatre. The Hennepin Arts calendar isn't typically stocked with hip-hop, but, at a minimum, it'll offer a unique way to experience the deep catalog of the "It's a Vibe" rapper.Concerts on Monday, May 19:

Amouranth Returns to Twitch After Making $38 Million on Kick

Kaitlyn 'Amouranth' Siragusa has done what every business baddie dreams of: secured the bag, stacked the millions, and returned to the main stage on her own terms. After cashing in on a jaw-dropping $38 million run with Kick, the internet's reigning queen of streaming reinvention has announced her glamorous return to Twitch. And she did it the only way Amouranth knows how with a cinematic flair, a brand flip, and a calculated nod to the tens of millions she just pocketed from the competition. In a short but sharp video posted to X (formerly Twitter), Amouranth is seen refueling at a 7-Eleven gas station, speaking cryptically on the phone: 'I'm on my way after I refuel a bit. Be there soon.' The clip then cuts to a Spongebob-style title card reading '$38 million later.' Her green Kick-branded car shifts color to Twitch purple. It was a masterclass in brand symbolism. One minute she's a high-earning rebel on Kick with a 'Kick Com' vanity plate. The next, she's making a high-octane return to Twitch like a diva who took a spa sabbatical in the south of France, only to reemerge in couture with a martini and no apologies. Amouranth joined Kick in 2023 shortly after xQc made headlines with a $100 million mega-deal. While Siragusa's contract details were never fully disclosed, she confirmed to Dexerto that it doubled her income and the math checks out. A two-year tenure netting $38 million implies a cool $19 million annually, which would be a sharp increase from her already considerable earnings across Twitch, OnlyFans, and business ventures. At a time when many creators were trying to diversify their revenue streams or chase exclusivity checks, Amouranth didn't just play the game. She dictated the damn rules. Her return to Twitch, slated for June 20, signals more than just a homecoming. It's a strategic chess move. Twitch is still the industry's crown jewel when it comes to visibility and cultural cachet. While Kick gave her leverage and a payday, Twitch gives her global reach and mainstream influence. There's no official word yet on whether she'll be exclusive to Twitch or multistreaming across platforms. Kick has recently pulled back on its lavish contract strategy, encouraging creators to multistream rather than sign long-term exclusives. If Amouranth chooses to stream on both platforms, it will be on her terms which is exactly how she likes it. Don't expect her to simulcast on YouTube, though. In a move that remains the messiest chapter of her career, YouTube banned Amouranth's main channel for 'ban evasion' after axing her ASMR content for violating sexual content policies. While the incident may have tarnished her relationship with the Google-owned platform, it only intensified her appeal as a boundary-pushing brand unto herself. Amouranth has since leaned fully into platforms that let her monetize without micromanagement: streaming, OF, fan platforms, even launching novelty products like 'Gamer Girl Fart Jars.' Every decision is part of a broader empire-building machine. Let's be clear. This is not a story about a streamer getting bored and coming back. This is a calculated power pivot from a woman who has turned her digital persona into an empire. Twitch gets its headline act back. Amouranth gets her crown polished. And Kick gets left in a cloud of glitter and exhaust fumes. She's not just refueling at a gas station. She's refueling the industry. Watch out, Twitch. The queen is back. Richer, smarter, and classier than ever.
