We were just listening to REO Speedwagon's "Hi Infedelity" on the car-ride in to work this morning. That was the first vinyl I ever bought. But I digress.
So, who's goin to this?
TWISTED SISTER, POISON, FOREIGNER, JOURNEY Songs Featured In 'Rock Of Ages' Musical - Oct. 16, 2008
Playbill.com reports that the 1980s-set musical "Rock of Ages" — starring "American Idol" finalist Constantine Maroulis — officially opens at Off-Broadway's New World Stages October 16. Previews began October 1.
Featuring a book by Chris D'Arienzo, the musical, press notes state, is "fueled by high-octane '80s rock — from the anthems that defined an era to the power ballads that lit up arenas everywhere." Expect songs by JOURNEY, BON JOVI, STYX, REO SPEEDWAGON, PAT BENATAR, TWISTED SISTER, POISON, ASIA and WHITESNAKE.
The producers describe the musical as such: "It's the late 1980s and the final countdown is on for a legendary Hollywood rock club facing its demise at the hands of eager developers. When a young rocker hungry for his big break and a small town girl chasing her dreams land on the scene at this infamous venue, how far will ambition drive them? And will it be lights out for the club and all the regulars and rockers who have made it their home?"
