A family must-see, America’s Got Talent Live: The All-Stars Tour! features some of the most beloved performers from the hit NBC variety competition series. This event is part of the talent powerhouse’s first ever all-stars tour.

- Sunday, November 8th at 8:00 pm: Puscifer
Puscifer, who recently announced a new album, Money Shot, have returned to the road.
“As is the Modus Operandi of Puscifer, there will be a whole new show to accompany the Money Shot release. We’ve been leaving a few clues here and there as to what it may entail,” said Keenan. “As usual, we prefer to Show rather than Tell. Odds are if you’ve been a fan of the diverse nature of our performances in the past, you’ll want to go ahead and place those bets.”
The live line-up for the Money Shot tour includes Keenan, Mat Mitchell, Carina Round, Jeff Friedl, Mahsa Zargaran and the newest addition, Paul Barker (Ministry, Lead Into Gold).
