The first run of the tour will take these rockers to arenas and amphitheaters across East Coast and Midwest in May and June. The tour will kick off in Atlantic City on 25 May and make stops in Atlanta, Chicago, Oklahoma, Cincinnati and many more before it ends in Welch on 29 June. Until the start of this tour, you can catch both artists in Sin City.
Fogerty performs in Wynn Las Vegas between 6 and 12 May and ZZ Top performs at the Venetian Theatre between 20 and 28 April.
When they announced the tour, the ZZ Top frontman Billy Gibons joked about his visit to John Fogerty a few weeks back. Gibbons visited him in his Los Angeles home studio and while discussing their upcoming tour, they went straight to work. They practiced huge hits like “Bad Moon Rising”, “Fortunate Son” and “Tush” and before the meeting was over, they started creating and playing brand new music. They described the experience as “an exercise in just absolute joy”.
John Fogerty is considered to be one of the most influential musicians in rock history. He is a co-founder of Creedence Clearwater and has very successful 50-year-long career. As a singer, songwriter and producer of numerous hits, he has been honored as one of 100 Greatest Guitarists, 100 Greatest Songwriters and 100 Greatest Singers by Rolling Stones. Being one of the longest running bands with the original line-up, ZZ Top has sold 50 million albums worldwide and are a perfect match to Fogerty with their “the heart of the matter”.
ZZ Top and John Fogerty have been followers of blues and rock since the beginning and they will blow our minds off this summer. They have prepared a fantastic show for us and as they say “riffs, blues and bayous” are on their bucket list.
