Tickets for this show go on sale this Friday, November 4th at 10:00 am through the Florence and Ward Beecher Box Office at Stambaugh Auditorium. This concert is welcomed by The Classic Rock Station Y103. With sales in excess of 20 million, most associate the band with their timeless arena-rock pop smashes, “Hold On Loosely,” “Rockin’ Into the Night,” “Caught Up in You,” “Fantasy Girl,” “If I’d Been the One,” “Back Where You Belong,” “Chain Lightnin’,” “Second Chance,” and more– hits that remain a staple on radio stations, immediately recognizable from the opening chord, and paving the way to their present-day touring regimen. Guitarist, vocalist, and founding member, Don Barnes, says it's all about maintaining that intensity in their live shows. “We never wanted to be one of those bands that had maybe gotten a little soft or complacent over the years. We're a team, and it's always been kind of an unspoken rule that we don’t slack up, we stack up. We go out there every night to win.” Aside from Barnes, the current line-up includes; guitarist/vocalist, Danny Chauncey; bassist, Barry Dunaway; drummer, Gary Moffatt; and keyboardist/vocalist, Bobby Capps.
