UPDATE 11:42 a.m.: The Riverside date has disappeared from Thicke’s website.
When Live Nation took over operations of Riverside’s Fox Performing Arts Center at the end of 2013, the company pledged high-quality entertainment.
So far, the company has already added multi-platinum stars including Willie Nelson and Trace Adkins to the calendar, as well as household-name comedians such as Wayne Brady and Bill Engvall and prog metal band Dream Theater.
Now the singing star with the biggest hit of 2013 may be visiting Riverside.
Robin Thicke, he of “Blurred Lines” fame, had originally posted on his website that he will be at the venue that he would perform at the Fox on Wednesday, March 26, but by late morning on Jan. 21, the date has since disappeared. Live Nation hasn’t posted the event on its ticketing site yet, and it’s unknown when tickets would go on sale.
However, it is confirmed that Thicke will perform at Fantasy Springs Resort Casino in Indio on Friday, March 28. Tickets for that go on sale Friday, Jan. 24 and are priced from $49 to $109.
What do you think of Live Nation’s bookings at the Fox so far? Is it a step up? Are they finding the right mix for Riverside?
