Don’t go chasing waterfalls, please stick to Maryland Heights because that’s where TLC is playing in June.

TLC and Shaggy announced they’re teaming up for a “TLC & Shaggy: Hot Summer Nights Tour.” The trek will stop in the metro St. Louis area at Riverport the Hollywood Casino Ampitheatre (14141 Riverport Drive, 314-298-9944) on Sunday, Jun 28.

But it’s not just TLC and Shaggy performing their hits like “Waterfalls,” “No Scrubs,” “Unpretty,” “Creep,” and “It Wasn’t Me” that we’re geeked about.

En Voguge and Sean Kingston are special guests on the tour, making it one big ole 1990s/early 2000s throwback.

Tickets go on sale as soon as tomorrow at 9 a.m. via LiveNation.com and Ticketmaster.com. VIP Packages are also available which include premium tickets, access to the Takin’ It Back pre-show lounge, exclusive swag bags and more.

There are 10 different presale options, (one through Citi, one through TLC, one through the House of Blues, one through Spotify, etc.) so if you dig into all of the options at the Ticketmaster event page and go searching for some codes, you can probably find a nice deal.

18 Things That St. Louis Stubbornly Insists on Calling By the Wrong Name

Riverport Our large outdoor ampitheatre hasn't been named "Riverport" in sixteen years. After it changed to the infuriatingly named "UMB Bank Pavillion" (that's "United Missouri Bank Bank Pavillion"), it was Verizon Wireless Ampitheatre before it became Hollywood Casino Ampitheatre. Whatever. It will always be Riverport to us. Photo courtesy of RFT
Highway 40 There is only one acceptable name for this stretch of highway and that is "Highway 40." The number stuck around after the road was absorbed into the Interstate system. The rest of the world might call this road Interstate 64 (hell, they even call it that in Illinois just over the river), but a true St. Louisan only says Highway 40. Say it with the honking, vowel-defying regional accent ("Highway Farty") for bonus points. Photo courtesy of Paul Sableman / Flickr Dogtown The Dogtown neighborhood is famous as the place in St. Louis where the big St. Patrick's Day parade happens every year. Dogtown also doesn't exist. The area that we call Dogtown is actually five separate neighborhoods. (Clayton-Tamm, Franz Park, Hi-Pointe, Cheltenham and part of Ellendale.) You won't find it on any proper map. Weird, huh? Photo courtesy of Jon Gitchoff The Kiel/Scottrade/Savvis/Enterprise Whatever Can just one of our sports areas please keep a static name? This place started as Kiel Center, then became Savvis Center and is now the Scottrade Center. TD Ameritrade recently purchased Scottrade, so we anticipated yet another name change, but TD Ameritrade was smart and said they don't have any current plans to change the name. Good, because we can never remember the first names, anyway. Photo courtesy of Herkie / Flickr Shaw's Garden We natives always call the Missouri Botanical Garden "Shaw's Garden" after its founder, Henry Shaw. Apparently we're all really tight with the noted philanthropist because we say Shaw's Garden like we know the dude and it's just his back yard. Photo courtesy of Missouri Botanical Garden The Dome It's real full name now is The Dome at America's Center, but this place has suffered from the same ailment as Riverport: too many names. It started as the Trans World dome and then became the Edward Jones Dome and ugh. Exhausting. Most residents just call it That Ugly Place Where The Rams Always Lost That Now Hosts Supercross Events. Photo courtesy of Thomas Gehrke / Flickr Hoosier To the rest of the country, "hoosier" is a nickname for a person from Indiana. But in the Lou, hoosier is a word that's used as a synonym for white trash. The origin of this particular usage is unclear, but one thing is for sure, you don't want to be called a hoosier in St. Louis. Photo courtesy of Google Maps
