Cedar Fair Entertainment knows this, so they’ve teamed up with MTV Games to bring Rock Band Live on tour this summer./p
pRock Band Live is an all-new interactive experience that will be touring several Cedar Fair amusement parks around the country this summer. It’s a “high-energy, concert-like stage show” featuring singers from across the country. Prior to each showing, guests at each venue will be able to play against each other for a chance to participate in the show itself, at important venues like Dorney Park in Allentown, PA, where the tour kicks off on Memorial Day weekend./p
pHow important is Dorney Park? When I was growing up in Pennsylvania, nothing said “We can’t afford Six Flags: Great Adventure” like a trip to Dorney Park./p
pThe show will tour various Cedar Fair locations throughout the summer, with regular shows held at Canada’s Wonderland and Cedar Point in Sandusky, starting in May and June respectively./p
p”We’re extremely excited to merge the popular Rock Band video game with a unique, interactive live show for our guests this summer,” said Jack Falfas, chief operating officer for Cedar Fair. “Rock Band is a pop culture phenomenon and we know families have enjoyed playing the game together at home. But now it’s time for them to take it to the next level – on stage at one of our parks in front of a live audience.”/p
pIf you’re interested in being a part of the show proper, entertainment firm RWS Associates will hold private auditions for the touring show on Thursday, March 4 at Ripley Grier Studios, 520 8th Ave (16th Floor) between 36th and 37th Streets (Press Room: 17B) in New York City./pbr clear=”both” style=”clear: both;”/
