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
