REO Speedwagon will be on the road through August this year — with new stops now on the books throughout June and July. The band, led by frontman Kevin Cronin, plays tomorrow night (March 13th) at Prior Lake, Minnesota's Mystic Lake Casino.
Kevin Cronin told us that out of countless musicians he's known over the years — especially those he played with wile growing up — he's never forgotten how truly blessed he is to earn a living as a working musician: “I lucked out, man. I saw the Beatles on The Ed Sullivan Show, decided that's what I wanted to do — and I'm still doin' it. And obviously, it's the REO Speedwagon fans that have given me this great opportunity — and believe me;I don't take it for granted for one second. And I try to thank them every night by givin' them a great show and letting them know that I don't take their support for granted.”
