After making their television debut on this year’s Grammy Awards and building a fan base, the Hollywood Vampires are embarking on its first tour. One of the many tour stops on the run includes the Scheels Arena in Fargo on July 18.
The Hollywood Vampires are a strange, unexpected grouping of people including Alice Cooper, Aerosmith guitarist Joe Perry and acclaimed actor Johnny Depp.
“Here is a gang of friends who came together really by chance and over the last year we were finally able to wrangle our schedules and the energy just fell into place. Playing with this line up is like a dream come true,” Perry said in a press release.
The band produces boisterous and energetic rock music that exemplifies the genre as a whole. Even if you are not a fan of the music in particular, it is an opportunity to see stars of rock music and Hollywood.
Tickets go on sale April 29 and are available at JadePresents.com or at the Tickets 300 box office.
