80's Tour: Human League, Belinda Carlisle, ABC, etc. http://www.billboard.com/...1003787816
The Human League, Belinda Carlisle, ABC, Dead Or Alive, A Flock of Seagulls and Naked Eyes will tour this summer as part of the inaugural '80s-themed Regeneration Tour, scheduled to begin Aug. 1 at the Dodge Theater in Phoenix. Ticket prices for the month-long U.S. trek, which wraps Aug. 29 at the Chastain Park Amphitheater in Atlanta, range between $20 and $75. Tickets have already gone on sale in Atlanta, Los Angeles and San Diego, with the remaining on-sale dates to roll out in the next four weeks. Dead or Alive will perform on the jaunt through Aug. 11, and A Flock of Seagulls will join the tour on Aug. 13. Live Nation will produce the majority of dates on the trek, according to Red Entertainment Agency's Rick Shoor, who booked this year's Regeneration Tour. Shoor recently returned to the agency business, and his history dates back to the FBI Agency, where he booked numerous new wave and punk acts during the 1980s. Shoor tells Billboard.com that the concept for the Regeneration Tour came from shopping at his favorite music retailers. "I was hearing all these '80s hits played in the stores I shopped in every week, so I thought putting a great hits package together could be a cool thing for the summer touring season," he recalls. | |
