Saturday, Sep. 15 Air Supply and Maxine Nightingale
7:00 PM
Air Supply & Maxine Nightingale - Saturday September 15, 7:00pm at Tri-Lakes Center in Branson, MO The Greatest Hits of the 70s & 80s Live On Stage from the Original Stars! Probing love's many dimensions and touching hearts everywhere has been Air Supply's sole ambition from the start. "All Out of Love," "Lost In Love," "The One That You Love," "Making Love Out Of Nothing At All," "Sweet Dreams," “Every Woman In The World,” and “Even The Nights Are Better” are just a few of the many major hits the band has enjoyed since 1975, when Australian-born Russell Hitchcock and U.K. native Graham Russell met while appearing together in an Australian production of Jesus Christ Superstar. In 1980, "Lost In Love" became a major worldwide hit, and the group's future success was assured. Wherever they go, no matter what the language or culture of their audiences, Air Supply strikes a universal chord. "Singing about love is the main reason for our longevity," says Graham. "Our audiences keep coming back, only now they're bringing their kids." Adds Russell, "It wasn't always fashionable to sing our kind of music, but we've always stuck to our guns, and, I think, maintained our integrity. It's at the core of our beings anyway." As for the two of them, their professional relationship has always gone hand in hand with a strong friendship as well. "We know each other better than anyone," says Russell. "We never take each other for granted, never consider not working together, and always appreciate the career we've carved out for ourselves." Opening the concert will be the sensational Maxine Nightingale with a great set of 70s favorites including her #1 songs “Right Back Where We Started From” and “Lead Me On.” Tickets are on sale at Tri-Lakes Center by calling the box office at (417) 336-0219.
