SUMMARY:STYX with Loverboy
DESCRIPTION:Classic rock legends\, STYX\, are set to perform in Penticton at the South Okanagan Events Centre on Wednesday\, September 4 with Canadian icons\, LOVERBOY. \nVIP and Meet & Greet Packages will be available and can be purchased starting Thursday\, June 6 at 10am PST and can only be purchased online at www.valleyfirsttix.com. \nGeneral tickets are $69.50\, $79.50\, $89.50 and $109.50* and go on sale Friday\, June 7 at 10am PST and can be purchased at www.valleyfirsttix.com\, in person at the Valley First Box Office at the SOEC\, or charge by phone at 1.877.763.2849. \nThe six men comprising STYX have committed to rocking the Paradise together with audiences far and wide by averaging over 100 shows a year every year since (yes) 1999\, and each one of them is committed to making the next show better than the last. Founded in Chicago in 1972\, STYX has the unique distinction of being the first band in rock history to have four consecutive certified multimillion-selling albums in a row: 1977’s The Grand Illusion\, 1978’s Pieces of Eight\, 1979’s Cornerstone\, and 1981’s Paradise Theatre. \nSTYX draws from over four decades of barn burning chart hits\, joyous sing-alongs\, and hard-driving deep cuts. Like a symphony that builds to a satisfying crescendo\, a STYX set covers a wide range of stylistic cornerstones. From the progressively sweeping splendor that is “The Grand Illusion” to the hunker-down fortitude of all that is the “Blue Collar Man\,” from the majestic spiritual love for a special “Lady” to the poignant rumination on the fleeting nature of fame in “Miss America\,” from an individual yearning for true connection as a “Man in the Wilderness” to a soul-deep quest to achieve what’s at the heart of one’s personal vision in “Crystal Ball\,” from the regal reach-for-the-stars bravado of “Come Sail Away” to the grainy all-in gallop of that rugged “Renegade” who had it made\, STYX draws on an unlimited cache of ways to immerse one’s mind and body in their signature sound.\n\nFor more than 30 years\, LOVERBOY has been “Working for the Weekend”(and on weekends)\, delighting audiences around the world since forming in 1978\, when vocalist and Penticton native\, Mike Reno\, was introduced to guitar hot shot\, Paul Dean – both veterans of several bands on the Canadian scene. After being rejected by all the major U.S. record companies\, LOVERBOY signed with Columbia Records Canada to record their self-titled debut album\, which went on to sell more than 700k records in Canada. Soon the band found themselves playing on mega tours with Journey\, Bob Seger\, Cheap Trick\, ZZ Top\, Kansas and Def Leppard\, to name a few. They quickly became MTV darlings\, being one of the first bands ever featured on the music channel. \nWith their trademarked leather pants\, bandannas\, big rock sound and high-energy live shows\, LOVERBOY has sold more than 10 million albums\, earning four multi-platinum plaques\, including the four-million-selling Get Lucky\, and a trio of double-platinum releases in their self-titled 1980 debut\, 1983’s Keep It Up and 1985’s Lovin’ Every Minute of It. Their string of hits includes\, in addition to the anthem “Working for the Weekend\,” such arena rock staples as “Lovin’ Every Minute of It\,” “This Could Be the Night\,” “Hot Girls in Love\,” “The Kid is Hot Tonite\,”“Notorious”\, “Turn Me Loose\,” “When It’s Over\,” “Heaven In Your Eyes” and “Queen of the Broken Hearts.” LOVERBOY went on to win a still-record six Juno awards in 1982\, and until a three-year sabbatical in 1989\, were one of the Top 5 grossing touring acts in the world\, performing in over 100 cities across the U.S. and Canada. Their success made them the first Canadian group ever to earn Columbia Records’ exclusive Crystal Globe Award\, celebrating the sale of over five million albums outside their native country. \nAlong with Reno and Dean\, LOVERBOY still includes original members Doug Johnson on keyboards and Matt Frenette on drums\, with Ken “Spider” Sinnaeve (a former member of Dean and Frenette’s pre-LOVERBOY band Streetheart)\, replacing the late Scott Smith on bass\, and continues a healthy touring schedule around the world. \n*additional fees apply.

SUMMARY:Ghost with Nothing More
DESCRIPTION:With “Dance Macabre” becoming the band’s third #1 single at rock radio\, Grammy award-winning artist Ghost announces a six-week North American headline tour that will see the Swedish rock band’s elaborate rock theatre presentation metamorphose into a full-on arena production. \nProduced by Live Nation and billed as the “Ultimate Tour Named Death\,” the outing is due to hit Penticton on Saturday\, September 21st at the South Okanagan Events Centre.  Tickets for the “Ultimate Tour Named Death” are $39.50\, $49.50\, $69.50 and $75.00* and will go on sale to the general public beginning this Friday\, April 5 at 10:00AM. Tickets can be purchased in person at the Valley First Box Office (at the SOEC)\, over the phone at 1-877-763-2849 or online at ValleyFirstTix.com. \nSan Antonio’s three-time Grammy-nominated alt/rock band Nothing More\, who earned three Top 10 singles from their most recent album The Stories We Tell Ourselves\, will provide support for the tour.* \nGhost’s widely acclaimed live performances are known for raising an ungodly ruckus\, and that will only be amplified as the band brings its stage production to arenas.  Cardinal Copia and the seven Nameless Ghouls will perform for more than two hours on a striking stage set resembling a medieval cathedral with a backdrop of illuminated stained-glass windows that pay tribute to the three now-departed Papas.  In addition to rich costumes\, special effects\, and a spectacular light show tailored-made for arenas\, the Cardinal and the band will take advantage of a series of multi-level platforms and walkways to prowl around on while performing some of Ghost’s fan-favorite songs from the band’s albums and EPs catalogues.  The set list will include favorites “Square Hammer\,” “Cirice\,” “Ashes\,” “He Is\,” “Year Zero\,” “Rats\,” “Mummy Dust\,” “Life Eternal\,” “Dance Macabre\,” and many more. \nTwenty-eighteen proved to be a transformative year for Ghost.  The band’s album Prequelle debuted at #3 on Billboard’s 200 chart\, was named Revolver’s #1 Album of the Year\, earned a Grammy nomination in the category of “Best Rock Album\,” and accumulated 400\,000 album sales and 200-million streams since its June release.  Prequelle’s first radio single\, “Rats\,” held the #1 spot on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Songs chart for a record-setting eight consecutive weeks and received a “Best Rock Song” Grammy nomination\, and the most recent radio track\, “Dance Macabre\,” became the band’s third #1 song at rock radio\, a position it held for three weeks.  In addition\, Loudwire named Ghost its “Artist of the Year.” \n*Additional fees apply. \nWhile costumes are encouraged for this event\, please note all patrons must be identified at the entrance.
