REO Speedwagon - Friday Aug. 19, 2011
REO Speedwagon will be rockin' at the Chase County Fair performing their iconic hits! Formed in 67 and fronted by vocalist Kevin Cronin since 1972, REO Speedwagon has -- for decades -- been a confounding blend of consistency and change. They rode in station wagons, going from tiny gigs to even tinier gigs, just to get the REO name out in the early days. Later they rode the top of the charts with 22 million albums sold in the U.S. and 40 million around the globe, with a string of gold and platinum records and international hit singles. The 9-times certified Hi Infidelity remains a high-water mark for rock bands. The band has gone onstage and in the studio and done the work, year after year -- dozens of albums, hundreds (thousands?) of concerts, infinite radio spins. The eyes have always been on the future and on the road -- not a year has gone by where REO Speedwagon didn't perform live, thrilling fans with hits like "Keep On Loving You" and "Can't Fight This Feeling."
