Dust off your LARP gear and poncho, because Gwar (stylized in all-caps) is celebrating 40 years of gender non-conforming dinosaurs and mythological imagery, and the celebration tour is returning to Ybor City this fall.

After founding frontman Dave Brockie’s viking funeral in 2014, the satirical-metal band put its pet tyrannosaurus rex Gor Gor to rest as well. But last summer, the dino—now a “20-foot tall trans-species prostitute” according to the group—was resurrected for a new project called The Return of Gor Gor, a seven-track outing that features live tracks and a few new studio cuts. A 32-page comic book also accompanies it, because who doesn’t want to go all Coheed & Cambria on their fans?

Tickets to see Gwar play Ybor City’s The Ritz on Sunday, Nov. 16 are still available and cost $50.75.
