Ladies & Gentlemen…the Rolling Stones are coming to town! Well, maybe it's not the actual Rolling Stones, but it's the next best thing: Satisfaction…A Rolling Stones Experience, will headline the last event of the season, and the show is sure to keep the crowd on its feet and rocking! The event will kick-off at 5 p.m. in Festival Park on Thursday, Oct. 15. The opening act is scheduled to go on stage between 5:30 and 6 p.m., with Satisfaction hitting the stage between 7 and 7:30 p.m. Forty years of classic hits will be performed with the energy of an actual Stones concert performance. The show also includes an acoustic set of popular hits such as "Angie" and "Wild Horses." Lead vocalist, Chris LeGrand, who portrays the fl amboyant Mick Jagger noted, This show appeals to Stone's fans of the past and present. All the big hits are here - Honky Tonk Women", "Start Me Up" and of course the band's signature classic "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction." Formed in the winter of 2000 in Shreveport, La., SATISFACTION's goal was to bring a realistic Stones show to audiences throughout the United States. National touring quickly brought the show fan and media acclaim in newspapers, magazines and television across the country. Performing shows at fairs, festivals & casinos with such headliners as Ratt, Joan Jett, Starship, Sammy Hagar, Lynryd Skynryd, Jackal, Nazareth, Foghat and more solidifi ed the show's national status. The big show will be a great end to a season that organizers are calling "the best ever."
