Just announced on Pollstar.com - Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band at Charlotte Bobcats Arena on April 27, 2008.
No confirmation yet from the arena, but I'd say it's a safe bet given that he'll be in Atlanta on April 25.
No word yet when tickets go on sale, either.
Honky Tonk Revival
Puckett's Farm Equipment
Nov. 16, 2007
The Deal: Hick'ry Hawkins, Jem Crossland, Wink Keziah & Delux Motel and The Bo-Stevens showcase their honky tonk stylings.
The Police w/ Fictionplane
Charlotte Bobcats Arena
Nov. 15, 2007
The Deal: The Police return to Charlotte for the first time since 1982 (and second time ever) with Sting's son's band in tow.
Robin Thicke's concert at Amos' Southend on Dec. 2 has been cancelled due to "doctor ordered vocal rest."
Thicke's Web site says the rest was ordered through the end of the year. No word on the date being rescheduled.
Tori Amos w/ Yoav
Ovens Auditorium
Nov. 13, 2007
The Deal: Piano songstress plays two-hour set to packed auditorium.
The Good: Slightly eccentric, but a great performer, Amos entertained the crowd for just over two hours. Highlights included "Crucify," "Fairytale," "Cornflake Girl" and an unexpected short cover of James Taylor's "Carolina In My Mind." She started the show off as Clyde, donning a brown wig, boots and short dress.
Charlotte's Unknown Hinson has given his voice to a squid by the name of Early Cuyler. (Check out the story on Unknown Hinson in this week's edition of Creative Loafing.)
