Tickets on sale for Tampa get-together

MAY 06, 2008

Journey For those unable to attend the Stuck in the 80s get-together in Las Vegas, there's still the Journey/Heart/Cheap Trick show on July 30 in Tampa at the Ford Amphitheatre.

And we just got word on ticket sales. They go on sale Saturday, May 10 (the same day as the Vegas tickets) and range from $25 for a lawn seat all the way up to $125 for reserved seats close to the stage. (There's also a group deal: 4 lawn tickets for $75.) Go to livenation.com for more information.

Co-host Sean Daly says he'll show up at the Tampa show and promises not to ruin everybody's night by drinking too many Red Bulls. I'll be at the show, of course, even though I leave the next day for Vegas.

Meanwhile, I'm working with the newspaper and the bands' PR people on other opportunities for us. Hopefully we'll snag a meet-and-greet with the bands. Drop a comment on the blog if you think you're up for the show!
