MonkeeMen: The Monkees Tribute

In 1967, The Monkees TV show won two Emmy Awards and the band produced five multi-platinum albums and six Billboard Top 10 singles including three #1’s.

They perform all your favorite Monkees songs live on stage, including: “Last Train to Clarksville,” “Pleasant Valley Sunday,” “Daydream Believer,” “I’m a Believer,” and many more.

In addition to record-perfect renditions of Monkees classics, each performance features a dance-off, a 60’s-themed costume contest, and a unique opportunity for an audience member to come up on stage to be serenaded by “Davy.”

Randy Travis: The More Life Tour

“The “More Life Tour” is a remarkable celebration of Randy Travis’s legendary career, featuring the exceptional talent of guest vocalist James Dupré. This unique tour brings together Travis’s original touring band with Dupré’s captivating voice to deliver an unforgettable experience, honoring the timeless hits of one of country music’s most iconic figures – who is front and center throughout the show.

Randy Travis, a towering figure in country music, has left an indelible mark on the musical landscape with lifetime sales exceeding 25 million and an illustrious career with seven Grammy Awards and 23 No. 1 singles. His impact on American music is further underscored by his 2016 induction into the Country Music Hall of Fame and his celebrated membership in the Grand Ole Opry since 1986. Additionally, he has acted in over 45 television shows and movies throughout his nearly 40-year career. Despite facing significant health challenges since a near-fatal stroke in 2013, Travis has made inspiring strides in his recovery, documented in the release of his memoir “Forever and Ever, Amen” and a new single in 2024 with the use of cutting-edge AI tools. His resilience and contributions resonate with fans of all ages – from those who recognized his true country sound on the radio in 1986 to the kids discovering him on TikTok and streaming platforms today.

James Dupré, an emerging star in his own right, brings a fresh and soulful dimension to the “More Life Tour.” Raised in Bayou Chicot, LA, Dupré’s smooth baritone and engaging presence have garnered him recognition from Rolling Stone Magazine and a significant following across social media. His career took off with a viral YouTube presence, leading to performances on “Ellen” and a record deal with Warner Music Nashville. After a standout appearance on NBC’s “The Voice,” Dupré has continued to impress with his music, including his latest album, “Home and Away.” His acting debut in “The Price” and recent Grand Ole Opry debut further showcase his versatility.

The “More Life Tour” is a heartfelt homage to Randy Travis’s enduring legacy, featuring James Dupré’s remarkable vocal talent and Randy’s original band. This tour offers fans a chance to relive the magic of Travis’s greatest hits while celebrating the future of country music with Dupré’s dynamic performances. For more information, visit RandyTravis.com.

Please note: Randy Travis will be on stage and a big part of this show but will not be singing. Guest vocalist James Dupré will be singing with the original band in Randy’s place.”

Steve Trevino in concert

Comedian Steve Treviño is “America’s Favorite Husband.” He can “speak wife fluently,” he never calls “the guys” for help on a home project, and he knows better than to “make his own decisions,” since decision-making is a privilege reserved solely for his wife, Renae.

His relatable approach affirms his status as one of the country’s premiere stand-up comedians, viewed over 300 million times, selling-out shows across the nation, and amassing over 3.4 million total social media followers.

Today, the comedian has had stand-up specials with Amazon, NETFLIX, Showtime to name few. His first Showtime special, Grandpa Joe’s Son, staked out a spot in the Nielsen Top 20 when it first premiered. From the success of that special, he funded, produced, and shot his 2014 NETFLIX hit Relatable. To promote the special, he uploaded a clip titled “When Your Wife Comes Home From Shopping.” It exploded, generating over 56 million views on Facebook alone and paving the way for his other viral clips like “When You Ask Your Wife If She Wants McDonald’s” (21 million views). In 2018, Trevino released the follow-up special, Steve Trevino ’Til Death on Amazon. In 2022, he once again self-produced his fifth special, I Speak Wife that released on YouTube garnering over 4 million views.

$29.50-$45.50. Tickets can be purchased here.
