Rock legend pair coming to Olivette area

Two of the biggest names in rock will be in the Olivette area this summer. Rod Stewart is coming to the Hollywood Casino Amphitheatre, with his guests, Cheap Trick.

Stewart has been rocking since the 1970s, selling millions of records in his enduring career. His breakthrough came in 1971 when he released “Every Picture Tells a Story,” which spawned the hit that made his name, “Maggie May.” In 1978, he asked the question “Da Ya Think I'm Sexy?” and got a resounding “Yes,” in response. In the 1970s and 1980s, new wave and disco influences could be found in “Blondes Have More Fun,” which went to No. 1 in 1978, and “Tonight I'm Yours,” from 1981.

An enthusiastic review of a recent concert says:



“Awesome entertaining show . . . Rod still sounds as good as he did in the 80’s, that amazing voice ❤️ Well worth seeing wooo hooo !!!!!”




Cheap Trick first got together in Illinois in 1973, and got their break in 1978, with “Heaven Tonight.” A hard rock outfit that has never stopped touring, Cheap Trick has over 20 million album sales to their credit.

A review of a concert says:



"Real blast from the past. They haven't slowed down a bit and rocked the house."




Rod Stewart and Cheap Trick will be appearing on September 2, at 7:30 pm. The amphitheater is in Maryland Heights, about five miles from Olivette. Flyer printing can create handouts for concerts like this.
