THREE DOG NIGHT AT BUFFALO THUNDER
SANTA FE, N.M. —Three Dog Night will take the stage Saturday, Feb. 28, 8 p.m. at Buffalo Thunder Resort and Casino.
“Three Dog Night has been mesmerizing crowds for four decades,” says David Oakeley, Executive Director of Marketing, Buffalo Thunder Resort & Casino. “We invite you to join us for a night of funky, soulful music with the lush, full-band experience of Three Dog Night.”
From 1969 through 1974, no other group moved more records, sold more concert tickets or achieved more Top 10 hits. Tens of millions of their records have been sold over the years. In 2009 Three Dog Night continues to top the list of artists with the best “Billboard Top 100 Chart” average.
Three Dog Night’s hits are heard daily in the U.S. on the radio, in TV commercials and in major motion pictures -- songs like “Mama Told Me (Not To Come),” “Joy to the World,” “Shambala,” “One” and “Black and White.”
Founding Three Dog Night members Cory Wells and Danny Hutton will awe Buffalo Thunder concert-goers on lead vocals, with original keyboardist Jimmy Greenspoon, guitarist Michael Allsup, bassist Paul Kingery and drummer Pat Bautz completing the lineup.
The band’s name came from a story about Australian aborigines who, on cold nights in the outback, sleep with their dogs for warmth. The coldest evenings are known as "three dog nights.” Three Dog Night has had 21 consecutive Top 40 hits, including three #1 singles, 11 Top 10’s, 18 straight Top 20’s, 7 million-selling singles and 12 straight RIAA Certified Gold LPs. Their hits have been on best selling charts in all genres—pop, rock and country.
“Don’t miss this chance to see a rock band that is an American original, right in your own backyard,” adds Oakeley.
