VAN WEZEL ADDS MOODY BLUES TO ROSTER

From Sarasota Florida Pelican Press


A concert by The Moody Blues - whose inspiring anthems include "Nights in White Satin," "Tuesday Afternoon" and "I'm Just a Singer (In a Rock And Roll Band)" - has been added to the roster of events at the Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall this season. Tickets to the concert, on March 11 are on sale now.

Tickets are $60-$80 (with a limited number of "Smart Seats" available for $30).

Since the '60s, as a part of the historic original British invasion of super-groups, The Moody Blues have performed music that expresses universal themes of love, compassion and peace. The group - Justin Hayward, John Lodge and Graeme Edge - makes a stop at the Van Wezel as part of its 2010 tour.

With a legacy that spans the late '60s to the present, and worldwide album sales of over 70 million, the group is known for creating some of the most ground-breaking and innovative music of our time. Their many single hits, gold, platinum and multi-platinum albums have made The Moody Blues one of the top-grossing bands in existence.
