BOSTON coming to Verizon Wireless Amphtiheater....

Date confirmed by band, venue has yet to announce show, ticket prices

Tom Scholz' band BOSTON will embark on a highly anticipated summer tour following the successful release of their latest album, Life, Love & Hope. The tour will kick off on June 5 at the Seminole Hard Rock Live in Hollywood, FL. Always a huge crowd pleaser with their high-energy stage show, out-of-this-world sound, and remarkable musicianship and singing, BOSTON will feature the personnel and music from their highly acclaimed 2012 tour with some exciting additions. The band prides itself on performing a totally live show without the use of prerecorded music or technical enhancements, delivering the exceptional sound that is faithful to their studio recordings.  

BOSTON burst onto the music scene with their eponymous best-selling debut album in 1976, and never looked back. With over 17 million copies sold, Boston generated hits such as "More Than a Feeling," "Peace of Mind," and "Smokin'," rock staples that are still in heavy rotation today. Their second effort, Don't Look Back was another chart-topper that confirmed their place in rock history, followed by Third Stage, which hit #1 on the charts, with the top single of 1986, "Amanda." With over 31 million albums sold to date, their music has stood the test of time, as evidenced by live BOSTON audiences that span generations.

  Last December, BOSTON released their newest studio album, Life, Love & Hope on Frontiers Records. More than a decade in the making, Life, Love & Hope features 11 tracks embodying the classic and beloved BOSTON sound, as well as the latest in the evolution of Tom Scholz' musical artistry.

Scholz has been a longstanding advocate of the vegetarian lifestyle, and prevention of cruelty and suffering to animals both nonhuman and human. This summer, at selected concerts on the tour, there will be a promotional sale of the BOSTON CD, Greatest Hits. Every CD sold comes with a chance to win an Epiphone guitar signed by Tom Scholz. The winner from each show will be announced later that night. Net proceeds of the guitar contest will be split between Sea Shepherd Conservation Society and the Shriners Hospitals for Children.

Sea Shepherd Conservation Society's mission is to end the destruction of habitat and slaughter of wildlife in the world’s oceans in order to conserve and protect ecosystems and species. "What greater legacy can you leave than because of you a species survived, because of you a habitat was protected," said Sea Shepherd Conservation Society founder, Captain Paul Watson.


The Shriners operate a network of 22 Hospitals for Children specializing in orthopedic, cleft lip and palette, spinal cord injury and burn care regardless of the patients’ ability to pay.

SiriusXM will broadcast an exclusive special on the making of BOSTON's 6th studio album, Life, Love & Hope, to its listeners across North America this week. “BOSTON’s Life, Love & Hope Album Track-By-Track Special” with Tom Scholz and SiriusXM host Meg Griffin will air on SiriusXM’s Classic Rewind channel on March 10 at 6pm ET, with replays scheduled throughout the week. In addition, SiriusXM's U.S. subscribers will have the chance to win a trip to Las Vegas to see BOSTON's concert at The Joint at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino.
