HOT TICKET

The Rose Music Center in Huber Heights has announced its first show for 2017.

Rock and Roll legend Sammy Hagar and his band the Circle will play a show June 5.

For almost forty years, Hagar has been one of rock music’s most dynamic and prolific artists. From breaking into the industry with the seminal hard rock band Montrose, to his multiplatinum solo career to his ride as the front man of Van Halen, the “Red Rocker” has set the tone for some of the greatest rock anthems ever written with songs like “I Can’t Drive 55,” “Right Now,” and “Why Can’t This Be Love.”

Tickets range from $23.50 to $82 and will go on sale at 11 a.m. on Dec. 16. Tickets can be purchased at www.Ticketmaster.com, www.Rosemusicce

Tickets are on sale at the individual venues and all Ticketmaster outlets, except where noted.
