I'm hoping that they consider a Portland date, but I'm not holding my breath over this. Rod and Stevie will be in Seattle's Key Arena on April 23rd. Tickets go on sale, Monday, February 28th. I would love to see this show just to hear the songs that they croon together. I've seen them both individually, and Stevie with Fleetwood Mac as well as with Tom Petty. Cool that they are touring together. At least the show is on a Saturday night, so if you want a little Seattle fun, it's possible.
Meanwhile, we're about to bust with excitement because there's shows that are about to be announced AND WE CAN'T SAY ANYTHING. So I won't. But just know that it's a great Northwest line up for live music this year.
I was reminiscing about the "good old days" with a friend who used to be a concert promoter in the Northwest when I first got to Portland and was working at KVAN. It was a different world, with a different price tag, that's for sure. We laughed at the fact that people were outraged when Van Halen had the gall to charge $8.50 a ticket. "Just who do these L.A. dudes think they are?" was what we heard on the phone when the show was announced. Hahaha. She reminded me of all the Catch a Rising Star 92 cent concerts we did. People like Pat Benatar. I'm not kidding.
So, even if Rod and Stevie don't make it to P-Town...a lot of others will. Stay tuned!
