On the heels of four hugely successful nights at London's Royal Albert Hall and after much speculation, the eagerly anticipated Cream reunion lands in New York for three exclusive nights at Madison Square Garden. In what will be one of the must see shows of this decade and their only appearance in the U.S., legendary rock group, Cream - Ginger Baker, Jack Bruce and Eric Clapton, - will play Madison Square Garden October 24th, 25th, 26th, 2005. Also this Fall, Rhino Home Video and Reprise Records release the band's triumphant reunion performances at London's Royal Albert Hall on DVD and CD. The London shows were brilliantly captured on HD and 5.1 surround sound. More information on these titles will be forthcoming.
Cream formed in 1966 and disbanded in 1968. In just under three years the band produced three seminal studio albums, 'Fresh Cream' (1966), 'Disraeli Gears' (1967) and 'Wheels of Fire' (1968) and secured worldwide acclaim and commercial success with their unique take on electrified blues. The band were a prolific and thrilling live act and toured incessantly in their short but remarkable history. Prior to the Royal Albert Hall shows, the last time the band played together was in 1993 when the group was inaugurated into the Rock and Roll Hall Of fame in Cleveland.
These shows will be produced by Ron Delsener Presents and tickets will be available in advance to American Express cardmembers.
Tickets will go on-sale first to American Express cardmembers through a special pre-sale, beginning Monday, September 12th at 9am. Tickets can be purchased via ticketmaster.com and there will be a 4 ticket per person limit.
If tickets remain, they will then go on-sale to the general public on Monday, September 19, 2005.
My boss at the CD distributer told me one of his accounts bought two tickets 14th row for 500 dollars each. He offered him 1000 each for them. He said a scalpper was already giving him 6000 for them. I guess im not seeing this show. But at least there will be a dvd or two. Thats good news.
Led Zepplin eat you heart out. The Kings have come to reclaim their throne.
