SUMMARY:Get the Led Out
DESCRIPTION:Get the Led Out appears March 4 at the Rialto Square Theatre in Joliet\, IL! \nFrom the bombastic and epic\, to the folky and mystical\, Get The Led Out (GTLO) have captured the essence of the recorded music of Led Zeppelin and brought it to the concert stage. The Philadelphia-based group consists of six veteran musicians intent on delivering Led Zeppelin live\, like you’ve never heard before. Utilizing the multi-instrumentalists at their disposal\, GTLO re-create the songs in all their depth and glory with the studio overdubs that Zeppelin themselves never performed. When you hear three guitars on the album\, GTLO delivers three guitarists on stage. No wigs or fake English accents\, GTLO brings what the audience wants – a high energy Zeppelin concert with an honest\, heart-thumping intensity. \nDubbed by the media as “The American Led Zeppelin\,” Get The Led Out offers a strong focus on the early years. They also touch on the deeper cuts that were seldom\, if ever heard in concert. GTLO also include a special “acoustic set” with Zep favorites such as “Tangerine” and “Hey Hey What Can I Do.” \nGTLO has amassed a strong national touring history\, having performed at major club and PAC venues across the country. GTLO’s approach to their performance of this hallowed catalog is not unlike a classical performance. “Led Zeppelin are sort of the classical composers of the rock era\,” says lead vocalist Paul Sinclair. “I believe 100 years from now they will be looked at as the Bach or Beethoven of our time. As cliché as it sounds\, their music is timeless.” \nA GTLO concert mimics the “light and shade” that are the embodiment of “The Mighty Zep.” Whether it’s the passion and fury with which they deliver the blues-soaked\, groove-driven rock anthems\, it’s their attention to detail and nuance that makes a Get The Led Out performance a truly awe-inspiring event! \nTickets are on sale now:  https://www.ticketmaster.com/event/07005D68B6682F51

SUMMARY:Hairball
DESCRIPTION:Hairball appears at the Coronado Performing Arts Center in Rockford\, IL on Friday\, February 24 at 8PM. \n\n\nA band puts on a concert – Hairball puts on an event! Hairball is a Rock & Roll experience you won’t soon forget. The lights\, sound\, smoke\, fire\, bombs\, and screaming hoards of avid fans…to merely call it a concert would be like calling Mount Rushmore a roadside attraction! \nVocalists Joe Dandy\, Kris Vox\, and Dave Moody lead the band through a 2+ hour\, mind-blowing\, and dropdead accurate homage to some of the biggest arena acts in the world. Van Halen\, KISS\, Motley Crue\, Queen\, Journey\, and Aerosmith are but a few of the acts fans will see brought to life. The Hairball stage becomes an entirely new rock concert before your very eyes countless times throughout the night. \nThe motor that drives the Hairball dragster consists of HBK on the electric bass\, Billy on the drums\, and Happy on the lead guitar. These Rock & Roll soldiers pride themselves on nailing some of the most memorable licks and chops of all time\, while adding their own style and flare that they’ve cultivated over decades of tireless performing. This isn’t a side job. These guys eat\, sleep and breathe Rock & Roll! \n2023 finds Hairball celebrating its 23rd year of rocking hundreds of thousands of people across the country. Constantly adding more characters\, more pyrotechnics\, more lights\, more sound\, more props\, more surprises…more everything! While Happy often tells the audience “Today is the first day is the rest of your life!” Hairball performs every show as though it could be their last. Every night is a 100% full-on\, no-holds-barred\, exciting\, chaotic\, fiery party that has to be experienced to be believed! \nAs important to Hairball as the music\, are its fans. While many bands claim to have the best fans in the world\, Hairball actually has! Whether they are 10 years old or 100\, Hairball fans bring an unparalleled enthusiasm and energy to the show that enhances the arena experience. Hairball knows it wouldn’t exist without its fans and takes every opportunity to let them know that. \nWhether it’s a pre-show meet and greet\, hanging out at the merch booth\, or chatting online\, Hairball has a lot in common with its fans and it’s always a good time when they get together. Don’t confuse Hairball with the countless “80’s Tribute” bands across the country. Hairball is an experience\, an attitude\, and expression of music that isn’t simply a retro flashback\, it’s a way of life! \n\nGet tickets: https://www.ticketmaster.com/event/04005D94C0EA1ACE

SUMMARY:Buddy Guy - Damn Right Farewell
DESCRIPTION:Buddy Guy – Damn Right Farewell\, appears at the Rialto Square Theatre in Joliet\, IL on February 19 at 7PM! \nAt age 86\, Buddy Guy is a Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee\, a major influence on rock titans like Jimi Hendrix\, Eric Clapton\, and Stevie Ray Vaughan\, a pioneer of Chicago’s fabled West Side sound\, and a living link to the city’s halcyon days of electric blues. Buddy Guy has received 8 GRAMMY Awards\, a 2015 Lifetime Achievement GRAMMY Award\, 38 Blues Music Awards (the most any artist has received)\, the Billboard Magazine Century Award for distinguished artistic achievement\, a Kennedy Center Honor\, and the Presidential National Medal of Arts. Rolling Stone Magazine ranked him #23 in its “100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time.” \nIn 2019\, Buddy Guy won his 8th and most recent GRAMMY Award for his 18th solo LP\, “The Blues Is Alive And Well”. \nIn July of 2021\, in honor of Buddy Guy’s 85th birthday\, PBS American Masters released “Buddy Guy: The Blues Chase The Blues Away”\, a new documentary following his rise from a childhood spent picking cotton in Louisiana to becoming one of the most influential guitar players of all time. The documentary features new interviews with Buddy Guy\, Carlos Santana\, Eric Clapton\, John Mayer\, Gary Clark Jr\, and more. \nThough Buddy Guy will forever be associated with Chicago\, his story actually begins in Louisiana. One of five children\, he was born in 1936 to a sharecropper’s family and raised on a plantation near the small town of Lettsworth\, located some 140 miles northwest of New Orleans. Buddy was just seven years old when he fashioned his first makeshift “guitar”—a two-string contraption attached to a piece of wood and secured with his mother’s hairpins. \nIn 1957\, he took his guitar to Chicago\, where he would permanently alter the direction of the instrument\, first on numerous sessions for Chess Records playing alongside Howlin’ Wolf\, Muddy Waters\, and the rest of the label’s legendary roster\, and then on recordings of his own. His incendiary style left its mark on guitarists from Jimmy Page to John Mayer. “He was for me what Elvis was probably like for other people\,” said Eric Clapton at Guy’s Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction in 2005. “My course was set\, and he was my pilot.” \nSeven years later\, July 2012 proved to be one of Buddy Guy’s most remarkable years ever. He was awarded the 2012 Kennedy Center Honor for his lifetime contribution to American culture; earlier in the year\, at a performance at the White House\, he even persuaded President Obama to join him on a chorus of “Sweet Home Chicago.” Also in 2012\, he published his long-awaited memoir\, When I Left Home. \nThese many years later\, Buddy Guy remains a genuine American treasure and one of the final surviving connections to an historic era in the country’s musical evolution. \n  \nTickets are on sale at https://www.ticketmaster.com/event/07005D5AC8F6588E

SUMMARY:The Rat Pack is Back for the Holidays
DESCRIPTION:The Rat Pack is Back for the Holidays appears at the Rialto Square Theatre in Joliet\, IL on December 17th at 8PM! \nWhen the Rat Pack gets together onstage\, it’s magic. There are no card tricks and no rabbits popping out of hats\, but when of Chris Jason (Frank Sinatra)\, Drew Anthony (Dean Martin)\, and Kyle Diamond (Sammy Davis Jr.) hit the stage\, it’s there—the same magic that filled the room when these three icons performed at the Sands during the ’60s and ’70s. The Rat Pack is Back For The Holidays takes audiences back to an era when the Strip had live music and entertainers knew how to work the crowd. \nThe Rat Pack banters back and forth with their adoring fans via jokes\, skits and great holiday songs. There is a seven-piece orchestra and don’t be surprised if some friends of the Pack show up and join in the fun. \nTickets are ON SALE NOW at https://www.ticketmaster.com/the-rat-pack-is-back-joliet-illinois-12-17-2022/event/07005CBAD12C36F7

SUMMARY:Get the Led Out
DESCRIPTION:Get The Led Out\, a musical group that brings the studio recordings of Led Zeppelin to life in concert\, is set to perform at the Coronado Performing Arts Center in Rockford\, IL on October 15 at 7PM! \nFrom the bombastic and epic\, to the folky and mystical\, Get The Led Out (GTLO) have captured the essence of the recorded music of Led Zeppelin and brought it to the concert stage. The Philadelphia-based group consists of six veteran musicians intent on delivering Led Zeppelin live\, like you’ve never heard before. Utilizing the multi-instrumentalists at their disposal\, GTLO re-create the songs in all their depth and glory with the studio overdubs that Zeppelin themselves never performed. When you hear three guitars on the album\, GTLO delivers three guitarists on stage. No wigs or fake English accents\, GTLO brings what the audience wants – a high energy Zeppelin concert with an honest\, heart-thumping intensity. \nDubbed by the media as “The American Led Zeppelin\,” Get The Led Out offers a strong focus on the early years. They also touch on the deeper cuts that were seldom\, if ever heard in concert. GTLO also include a special “acoustic set” with Zep favorites such as “Tangerine” and “Hey Hey What Can I Do.” \nGTLO has amassed a strong national touring history\, having performed at major club and PAC venues across the country. GTLO’s approach to their performance of this hallowed catalog is not unlike a classical performance. “Led Zeppelin are sort of the classical composers of the rock era\,” says lead vocalist Paul Sinclair. “I believe 100 years from now they will be looked at as the Bach or Beethoven of our time. As cliché as it sounds\, their music is timeless.” \nA GTLO concert mimics the “light and shade” that are the embodiment of “The Mighty Zep.” Whether it’s the passion and fury with which they deliver the blues-soaked\, groove-driven rock anthems\, it’s their attention to detail and nuance that makes a Get The Led Out performance a truly awe-inspiring event! \n  \nTickets are on sale at https://www.ticketmaster.com/event/04005C97E1C52512

In 1999 they returned from a tour of and Europe and Russia for an awards ceremony in Leicester Square\, hosted by Suggs from Madness. He announced they had won the award for “Worldwide Best Tribute Band” . \nIn 2016 Killer Queen set their sights on America including the awe inspiring Red Rocks Arena in Colorado – one of the countries most prestigious venues. The Beatles\, Springsteen\, U2 have all played there and the band are delighted it’s become a regular fixture on Killer Queen’s tour sheet. \n2019 sees the band’s fourth and biggest 10 week US tour as well headlining across Europe\, Scandinavia and Russia. \nThe fabulous Killer Queen came on stage. What an impact! Mirage or Resurection? The group voted best tribute in the world entirely succeeded in resurrecting Freddie Mercury both physically and vocally. You almost believe you were at Wembley Stadium back in 1986. \n– Voix Du Nord. France. \n“Killer Queen took to the stage\, the performance was scarily real. ‘Freddie Mercury’ gave it all he had in his trademark yellow suit – several outfit changes followed. The audience interaction could almost have been rehearsed. The crowd roared\, danced and joined in as though it was a requirement for entry. Brilliant.” \n– The Scotsman on Murrayfield Stadium \nTickets on sale at https://ticket.artsiowa.com/4370-killer-queen

SUMMARY:Michael Schenker
DESCRIPTION:Legendary rock guitarist Michael Schenker appears at The Pabst Theater\, in Milwaukee\, WI – with special guests Eric Martin and Images of Eden on October 9 at 7PM! \nThere are few rock guitarists on this planet who have had such a lasting influence on so many renowned musicians as Michael Schenker. With his outstandingly fluid style\, inexhaustible wealth of ideas and instinctive feel for hooks and melodies\, Michael Schenker is a living legend who\, despite his longstanding and distinguished history\, still impresses with his unflagging energy and drive. The blond stringman from Sarstedt (near Hanover) began his international career in the early 1970s with the Scorpions\, achieved worldwide fame after joining British rock group U.F.O. and then seamlessly continued his exceptional global success story under his own name\, as well as with acts such as Michael Schenker Group (MSG for short)\, Temple Of Rock and Michael Schenker Fest. Schenker and his career\, which has spanned more than fifty years\, are absolute exceptions in the otherwise short-lived music industry. \nTickets are ON SALE Friday\, March 25 at 10am!  https://www.axs.com/events/429057/michael-schenker-tickets?skin=pabst
