A couple days ago, everyone’s favorite bank account drainer Ticketmaster ruined a huge surprise Mike Patton and the rest of Tomahawk had in the works. Patton initially teased some Brady Brunch-based audio in a now deleted post back on Wednesday, February 18. After our lovely Hesher Keenan published a piece about it, our even lovelier readers made him abreast to the fact that Ticketmaster had uploaded the following photo to the band’s Ticketmaster page as their profile picture, which obviously affirmed the whole Brady Bunch of it all:
Ticketmaster has since changed that photo but y’all, it is obviously too late. The internet moves too quickly to let you forget mistakes, which is why the caption to what Ipecac Recordings posted earlier this morning is perfectly petty.
In a joint post between Ipecac Recordings and Tomahawk, that same four-block Brady Bunch photo was shared with the caption “The worst kept secret in show business. Tune in Monday Feb 23rd for more.” Love the shade.
Well! It looks like we’ll finally get the answers to whatever the hubbub is this Monday, and I’m sure we’ll all be staying tuned. It’s probably some sort of Tomahawk reunion, which would be awesome, considering the band hasn’t played a show since September 6, 2013 (according to Setlist.fm). Yes, 2013! Since 13 is a lucky number, it seems like 2026 might be the year we’ll see them perform together again.
We can only goddamn hope but on everything, Ticketmaster, you better not ruin the surprise for a second time!
