It's always good to see bands who started in the Midwest return for shows.

REO Speedwagon formed in the late 1960's in Champaign, IL. The band started off riding to gigs in station wagons, looking to get their name out there as much as possible.

Today, the band's music is on the radio in every town they play in, making them a recognizable name for all ages.

The show will bring Kevin Cronin, with bandmates Bruce Hall on bass, keyboardist Neal Doughty, Dave Amato on lead guitar and drummer Bryan Hitt, REO has remained busy since the band celebrated its 40th anniversary in 2007.
