THE BOWL FOR RONNIE CELEBRITY BOWLING PARTY - the annual event benefiting the Ronnie James Dio Stand Up and Shout Cancer Fund (diocancerfund.org) , is set for Thursday, November 12, 2026. The event will once again take place at PINZ Bowling Center in Studio City, California. Bowl For Ronnie will feature an always-exciting celebrity bowling tournament and a raffle drawing for prizes and memorabilia. Last year's bowling event sold out well in advance and brought in more than $85,000 for the charity, whose mission is to raise awareness and much-needed funding for cancer research.
TRANS-SIBERIAN ORCHESTRA (TSO) will celebrate its landmark 30th anniversary with a major winter tour featuring a spectacular, reimagined staging of its treasured tale, The Ghosts Of Christmas Eve, followed by a high-energy second set. "Thirty years in, we never take a single person in that audience for granted," said TSO music director, guitarist, and longtime HardRadio friend Al Pitrelli. "With the economy the way that it is right now, it shouldn't be a mortgage payment for a family to come out to see us. Paul O'Neill [TSO's late creator, lyricist, and composer] was very adamant about giving people in the audience more 'show' than they could've even imagined, and that's what we do every year. We reimagine the show, we rebuild it, we make it bigger than last year so people come back again. I want you to look and go 'Oh my God, they outdid themselves one more time!'. We want to make sure you guys can come out and celebrate because you and everyone in that audience are the greatest fans in the world." for more information visit trans-siberian.com.
