To do Tuesday: Bonnie and Keb' Mo'

Don't know about you, but I've been looking forward to tonight's Bonnie Raitt/Keb' Mo' show since rumors about it coming surfaced months ago. Bonnie's played a rockin' shows outdoors at the amphitheater a few years back, but this is the first time we can recall her appearing her in the more intimidate indoor setting of Robinson Center. Last time we saw Keb' Mo' it was in a throng of folks at Jazzfest in New Orleans, and it was hard to get much closer to the stage than being about a full football field away. Eureka Springs has had Keb' Mo' at its Auditorium as the headliner to its Blues Festival; finally, he's here in The Rock.

Showtime is 8 p.m. at Robinson, and tickets are $65 and $45 throught Ticketmaster (975-7575) or the Celebrity Attractions office at Third and Spring (244-8800) and at the Robinson box office before the show.

Comments

This is not the first time Raitt has appeared at Robinson. She did a double-bill with John Prine at Robinson in the early 1990's. It was a great show.

EDITOR: Thanks. I wish I had been in town for that show. Must have been during my Fayetteville sojourn with the Gazette.

The concert was great! I don't think you can ask for a much better combo than Keb' Mo' and Bonnie Raitt. This will easily go down as my favorite concert this year.
