The Rush Experience!

Saturday, August 3, 2024 – 8:00 PM EDT

In the wake of Rush’s final Tour, The Rush Experience was formed by Vince Tricarico the founding member of the Rush Tribute, Sun Dogs with the goal of reproducing at an extremely high level, the sight and sound of rock’s finest Canadian trio.

Vince Tricarico plays the part of Neil Peart with a 1:1 exact replica of Neil Peart’s drum kit. To include his electronic ‘rear’ drum kit – all on a ‘rotating’ octagon drum riser. Vince has big shoes to fill and does so with both aplomb and the massive drum kit that drew so many fans to Rush Concerts for over 40 Years.

David Kidd takes on many roles – the biggest – Geddy Lee. David will sing, play bass and cover all the keyboard parts that Geddy Lee did while playing in Rush. All the parts that Geddy Lee played David will perform the same way – meaning every sound coming from the stage is played/trigger in real time.

Sean O’Brien has the challenging roll of covering Alex Lifeson, who over his career continued his unending “tone-chasing” along with a style that was the RUSH.

“The biggest challenge for the band, aside from the complexity of the music itself, is creating all that sound with only three people”. Vince says, “But that’s a big part of what makes it fun for us and for our fans”.

We’re huge Rush fans just like everyone who comes out to see us play.

JINGO – The Heart & Soul of Santana

Friday, August 16, 2024 – 8:00 PM EDT

JINGO is The Heart & Soul of Santana No fancy tricks, no gimmicks, just seven musicians recreating the music of Carlos Santana to perfection with note for note renditions quickly becoming the Ultimate Santana Tribute on the touring scene today Jingo covers all the great hits of Santana, which has featured the talents of Carlos Santana, along with so many talented artists. The seven seasoned, well respected musicians comprising Jingo have been making music together in various combinations and styles, in original outfits and in cover bands, for over thirty years. It seemed only fitting that they should come together to form the Ultimate Santana Tribute, and pay homage to a guitar legend who won 10 Grammy Awards and 3 Latin Grammy Awards and has been performing for 50 years. Authentic sounding and always respectful, Jingo leaves no stone unturned in replicating the sounds of one of the world’s best loved, top selling bands.
