I always look forward to The Great New York State Fair in Syracuse every summer. And this year, Journey and Cheap Trick will be onstage as a double bill. Check out the details.

According to nysfair.org:

"Journey will take people on an exciting trip through four decades of its well-loved songs at the New York State Fairgrounds Grandstand at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, August 28.

Journey has sold 80 million albums worldwide and has earned 19 Top 40 singles and 25 gold, platinum and multi-platinum albums since its formation in 1973 in San Francisco.

Tickets prices at $65, $55, and $45 go on sale at 9:00 a.m. Saturday, April 26 at the State Fair Box Office and at the Fair's only and official online ticket agent, etix.com. Tickets can also be purchased by phone, at 1 (800) 514-3849, option 1."
