B.B. King
Even though he's performing on Saturday in Minneapolis with Buddy Guy, B.B. King is putting tickets on sale at noon Friday for his return gig, Nov. 12, at the State Theatre.
No Buddy Guy for the reprise engagement. And ticket prices top out at $63 (plus fees), compared to $125 for Saturday's gig at the Orpheum.
Mystic Lake Casino has announced two shows: Natalie Cole on May 9 (Mother's Day) and Frankie Valli & the Four Seasons returning on July 24. Cole tickets, priced from $42 to $69, will go on sale March 13. Valli tickets, at $49 and $62, will go on sale May 8.
