Throwback Concert: Bryan Adams at Warner Theatre 2001

Throwback Concert: Bryan Adams at Warner Theatre 2001

Happy Birthday Bryan Adams! The Canadian guitarist and singer turns 61 on November 5th.

Today we look back at when Bryan came to Connecticut in 2001. He played at the historic Warner Theater in downtown Torrington. That year he only played a handful of dates in the United States so those of us in Connecticut who got to see the show were very lucky!

Throwback Concert: Poison at Lake Compounce 1988

Throwback Concert: Poison at Lake Compounce 1988

Happy Birthday Bobby Dall! The bassist for Poison turns 57 on November 2nd.

Today we take a trip back to 1988 when Poison came to Lake Compounce at perhaps the height of their popularity. Poison was out promoting their second studio album Open Up and Say…Ahh!, which included hit songs “Nothin’ but a Good Time” and “Every Rose Has Its Thorn.”  Joining Poison on the bill was Lita Ford and Britny Fox.

During the song “Back To The Rocking Horse,” an upset Bret Michaels paused the show due to technical difficulties. After it was fixed, the band returned to the stage and played on.
