KATRINA ON NEW NATIONAL ARENA TOUR
Ok, so who thinks Katrina should be on stage more? Yes, I thought so too. With memories of her amazing performances on tour with Luxx and The Katrina Chester Band, and her incarnations of Janis Joplin baiting our breaths, there is news!!!
Katrina has signed on to a huge new national tour!
"Flashback ’Äì the Classic Rock Experience"
"Flashback..." delivers anew the hit music of the all-time greatest artists: Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, the Doors, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd and more... Rocking the mics, Spanish vocalist Jose Manzano, Katrina Chester (star of the off-Broadway smash "Love, Janis"), Elizabeth Eagan and special guest vocalist Chuck Negron, formerly of Three Dog Night, back to sing that band's greatest hits and more."
Looking at the info, there's no way I can do justice to the size and scope of the production being put together for this tour. Imagine the biggest arena bands back in those same venues but with the sound systems, lasers, pyrotechnics, and the video technologies of today at their fingertips. I can't even imagine...
Here are some links to all the information and to all press that this new tour is already generating. It's going to be huge...
