Both search for a lost artifact called the AllSp ark\, a cube-like object that is the source of all Cybertronian life\, to win the war. The Autobots want to find the AllSpark to rebuild Cybertron a nd end the war\, while the Decepticons want to use it to conquer the unive rse.

The upcoming “A Tribute to Chicago Blues ” tour represents a homecoming of sorts for Wilson\, who cut his teeth p laying alongside the very architects of the Chicago blues sound during the genre’s golden era. \n“That’s where I live\,” Wilson says about C hicago blues. “This is what I love. It’s what I’ve always loved. Eve rything else that I do\, I try and put that mojo on it.” \nEarly Immersi on in the Scene \nWilson’s connection to Chicago blues runs deep\, stret ching back to his teenage years when he was fortunate enough to witness an d learn from the masters themselves. “I was probably about 16 years old\ , maybe even 15\,” Wilson recalls about when he first became aware of th e Chicago blues scene. “All my friends were listening to that stuff and all those guys were coming in and playing live everywhere you can imagine. ” \nThe young Wilson saw legends like Johnny Shines\, Muddy Waters\, Geo rge “Harmonica” Smith\, and Jimmy Reed perform live. More remarkably\, he got to play with them. “I played with Eddie Taylor when I was 18 or 19 years old. That’s about as Chicago blues as you can get\,” he notes .  \nThe Sound  \nWhat set Chicago blues apart from other regional style s was its distinctive mood and power. “Something about Chicago blues\, t hose guys really knew how to set a mood\,” Wilson explains. The migratio n of blues musicians from the rural South to Chicago created a unique fusi on. “They take their district\, their region\, and they bring it to anot her city. And it morphs into a combination of a couple of things\,” Wils on observes. \nThe urban environment demanded amplification\, which fundam entally changed the sound. “These musicians performed in a lot of other places before they got to Chicago. They soaked up the different scenes acr oss the country\,” Wilson says. “Then they put those sounds through an amplifier. Because they were playing in bars. You can’t be heard otherw ise.” \nChicago blues was also distinguished by its harmonica-driven sou nd\, featuring legends like Little Walter\, James Cotton\, and Big Walter. “A lot of Chicago blues was built around the harmonica\,” Wilson note s\, explaining his natural gravitation toward the genre. \nThe Human Eleme nt \nOne aspect Wilson emphasizes about the Chicago blues masters is their approachability despite their legendary status. “They were just regular people. That was the thing\,” he reflects. “People like Jimmy Rogers\ , I worked with him\, and I love covering his stuff. But he was just a nor mal guy… with a lot of talent. The same with Muddy Waters\, the originat or of electric Chicago blues. I would go out to eat with him after a show and no one knew exactly who he was\, but they knew he was somebody importa nt. Even the king carried himself like a normal human being.” \nThis dow n-to-earth quality extended throughout the blues community. “Big stars\, people like B.B. King\, people like Bobby Blue Bland\, they were still ve ry normal people. That’s because they came from normal backgrounds. They came from having nothing to having a bit of something.” \nA Musical Eco system \nWilson describes the Chicago blues scene as a thriving ecosystem where hundreds of clubs supported a vibrant community of musicians. “A l ot of those guys rarely left the city. They were all playing clubs in Chic ago. There were hundreds of them.” This concentration created an environ ment where musicians constantly pushed each other to excel. \nThe personal connections Wilson forged during this era remain vivid. “Literally it w as like playing basketball with Michael Jordan every single time\,” he s ays. “You’re playing with all your heroes. It was an incredible time t o be alive.” \nThe Upcoming Tour \nThe “Tribute to Chicago Blues” to ur will feature a mix of classic chestnuts and deeper cuts from the Chicag o blues catalog. “There will be a lot more traditional songs in the set\ ,” Wilson explains. “We haven’t decided exactly how we’re going to mix it up yet\, but I’m hoping I can do this for a little while\, to be honest with you.” \nHowever\, Wilson will maintain his traditional appr oach of not using set lists. “I prefer to let the energy of the crowd an d the performance dictate the evening’s direction.” \nAuthenticity and Individual Voice \nWilson emphasizes the importance of individual express ion within the blues tradition. “You have to do your own thing\,” he i nsists. “When people come see me and they see this band\, they know that they’re going to get something unique\, even if it’s in that genre. ” \nThis philosophy reflects something he learned from the masters thems elves. “One great thing about these guys\, that does not happen today ve ry often\, is they all have their own personality. They all have their own style. They all have their own delivery. They were all unique inside that musical genre.” \nLooking Forward \nAs Wilson prepares to take audience s on this musical journey\, he hopes fans will dig deeper into the music ’s origins. “When you hear us doing stuff\, certain songs\, dig back t o where the original came from. Find out who did it. You will probably end up owning everything they ever did\, like I do.” \nThe “Tribute to Ch icago Blues” tour promises to be more than just a series of concerts — it’s a master class in authenticity\, delivered by someone who learned from the source and has spent decades perfecting his craft while maintaini ng his own distinctive voice within the tradition. \nCandy Cigarette \nCan dy Cigarette delivers a blistering brand of raw\, high-energy blues-rock\, fueled by an unapologetic spirit that defies their age. Hailing from Ocon omowoc\, Wisconsin\, identical twins Isaac (bass/vocals) and Lucas Deitz ( guitar/vocals)\, both 16\, and drummer Evan Sterken\, 18\, have been ignit ing stages across the Midwest and beyond. Their sound\, a potent blend of 70s rock giants like Led Zeppelin and the modern fire of Rival Sons\, capt ivates audiences with electrifying live performances. Searing guitar riffs and blood harmonies\, coupled with a thunderous rhythmic drive\, create a n undeniable sonic force. Having shared stages with acclaimed artists such as Blackberry Smoke\, Jared James Nichols\, and many more\, Candy Cigaret te has proven their ability to command any crowd. Their latest single\, “REVOLUTION\,” marks a powerful step forward\, positioning Candy Cigar ette as torchbearers for the future of rock and roll. \nPlease note all ti cket sales are final.\nPlease have your tickets ready upon arrival.

It is sure to be yet another collection showcasing the rainbow of emotions\, fr om darkest heartache to bright\, shiny humor\, that is the hallmark of Mor gan’s range. \n“Where I am in my life right now\, I’m not afraid to express what I feel\,” she says. “I’m not afraid to express my views on anything\, especially on being a woman and my experiences in this busi ness and in life.” \nMorgan is known for her lustrous vocal phrasing and the down-to-earth believability of her torchy performances. On records su ch as “A Picture of Me Without You” and “I Guess You Had to Be There \,” the ache is palpable. She is feisty and sassy on “Watch Me\,” “What Part of No” “Five Minutes” and “I Didn’t Know My Own Str ength.” She has kicked up her stiletto heels in fun on her hits “Excep t for Monday” and “Go Away.” On her epic “Something in Red” she is an honest\, struggling everywoman. \nShe has been a daughter\, a bride\ , a mother\, a divorcee\, a widow\, a single mother\, a breadwinner and\, ultimately\, a survivor. In many ways\, Lorrie is a living\, breathing cou ntry song\, and she knows what she sings. \n“I didn’t want to just do another album. I want it to be something that really moves me. When I list ened to songs for it\, I’d think\, ‘No\, not that one. I’m not going to be able to sing that one\, because I’m not going to be able to feel it.’ It is very important to me for this album to reflect the things tha t I am feeling today.” \nRecently in Nashville\, Morgan commanded a stag e shared by the iconic Judy Collins\, in a concert performance honoring th e 30th anniversary of LA-based record label\, Cleopatra Records. She  con tinues to match any of her earlier efforts\, with an emotional range and a stage presence that is as vibrant as ever. \nShe is a peerless song inter preter\, drawing from a deep personal well that spans enormous tenderness to cheeky hutzpah. Whether covering a classic or sharing one of her own so ngs\, Morgan is truly a song stylist in the grandest tradition. \n“I hav e always been a songwriter and I do love to write\,” she comments. “Bu t I’m only comfortable co-writing with a few people\, and I don’t like appointment writing at all. Plus\, I’m not one of those people who says \, ‘If I didn’t write it\, I’m not going to record it.’ If somebod y else’s song is better\, I’m going to record it and not my own.” \n Lorrie Morgan has been around great songs all her life. She is a Nashville native who is the daughter of Country Music Hall of Fame member George Mo rgan. She made her debut on the Grand Ole Opry stage at age 13\, singing “Paper Roses.” Her father died suddenly of a heart attack at age 51. S he was l6 at the time and just beginning her musical career. Lorrie Morgan began making her own records shortly thereafter and was inducted into the Grand Ole Opry at just 24 years old. \nMorgan married fellow country sing er Keith Whitley in 1986. She was signed to RCA Records in 1987\, and her onslaught of hits began the following year. Whitley’s tragic death of an alcohol overdose in 1989 left her a widowed working mother. Their duet “Til a Tear Becomes a Rose” earned her a 1990 CMA award. \nHer first t hree albums\, Leave the Light On (1989)\, Something in Red (1991) and Watc h Me (1992)\, all earned Platinum Record awards. Her Greatest Hits collect ion (1999) is also Platinum. War Paint (1994)\, Greater Need (1996) and Sh akin’ Things Up (1997) are all Gold Record winners. \nShe sang “The Sa d Cafe” on Common Threads: Songs of the Eagles\, which was named the CMA Album of the Year in 1994. Country fans voted Lorrie Morgan their TNN/Mus ic City News Female Vocalist of the Year in 1994\, 1996\, 1997 and 1998. \ nLorrie Morgan maintained her recording pace in the new millennium\, relea sing collections in 2002\, 2004\, 2009 and 2010.

The release sparked a #1 trending article in Rolling Stone and led t o over 100 tour dates worldwide. \nSchoepp has released five albums\, coll aborating with members of Wilco\, The Raconteurs\, and The Jayhawks. PBS p raised his songs as “story songs that explore and explode the convention s of rock and roll\,” while Rolling Stone France called his work a “ch arming 100% Americana opus.” \nAn international touring artist\, Schoepp has shared stages with The Wallflowers\, Three Dog Night\, Old 97’s\, T he Jayhawks\, and Frank Turner\, performing at iconic venues including New York’s Town Hall\, Los Angeles’ Roxy Theatre\, and SXSW. \nPlease not e all ticket sales are final.\nPlease have ticket ready upon arrival.
