FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE MARCH 29, 2011 BOULEVARD CASINO & 96.9 JACK FM PRESENT PAT BENATAR & NEIL GIRALDO LIVE AT THE RED ROBINSON SHOW THEATRE FRIDAY, AUGUST 12 Coquitlam, BC – It was back in the early 80’s when singer and four-time Grammy Award winner, Pat Benatar began breaking rules and blazed a new trail for female rock stars. Pat was bold, self assured and independent … songs such as “Love Is A Battlefield”, “We Belong”, “Hit Me With Your Best Shot”, “We Live For Love” and “Heartbreaker” became anthems for a new attitude. At the dawn of MTV, Pat was the image of the female rocker for an entire generation of young women … and the young men who loved them. The generation has grown up with her and others have walked down the path she helped pave. Still going strong today, Pat has been married for 29 years to accomplished guitarist and songwriter, Neil Giraldo. Neil is also well-known as a prolific producer having produced all of Pat’s albums along with other artists including The Del-Lords, Rick Springfield and Kenny Loggins. Pat often refers to him as “The Big Kahuna” and the name fits as Neil is the major reason that her music sounds the way it does in the recording studio and on tour. Last June, Pat’s autobiography, Between a Heart and a Rock Place was released … the memoir touches upon her life, rock ‘n roll and how her generation changed music forever. Pat Benatar and Neil Giraldo will be performing for one night only at Boulevard Casino’s Red Robinson Show Theatre in August.
