PHISH
Reserved Seating: $50
Tickets on sale – Friday, April 2 at 12 p.m.

Last year’s summer tour – the band’s first in five years – included Phish’s first appearance at the Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival, described by The New York Times as a “euphoric three-hour set...full of giddy momentum, taking on Phish’s more elaborately composed songs like “Chalkdust Torture,” “Divided Sky,” “Stash,” “You Enjoy Myself” and “Wilson.” “[Phish] raced through some of its most technical, risky compositions, ducking and diving in four-way syncopation that illuminated the many hours the band has spent rehearsing,” said The Denver Post in a review of a concert at Red Rocks. “In fact, everything is back on the table now, with Phish’s historic four-nighter at Red Rocks already revealing a stronger-than-ever band willing to tear down and rebuild old favorites.”

Frampton will be touring on his forthcoming new album due out this April, Thank You Mr Churchill. YES is hot off a winter concert series around the US. The two groups performed together in 1976, so they are reuniting for what is sure to be a blow out concert tour.

The Oklahoma based - alternative rock band, Flaming Lips, will bring their eclectic sound to CMAC during their 2010 summer tour. The band was founded in 1983 by lead guitarist Wayne Coyne. Flaming Lips have evolved from Oklahoma weirdo’s to their pop culture breakthrough in the mid-90s to their status as one of the most respected groups of the 2000s, the Lips have ridden one of the more surreal and haphazard career trajectories in pop music.

The group will be joined by The Black Keys, a rock and roll band with a brutal, primal force. The Ohio natives entered the scene in 2002 with their debut album The Big Come Up. The Black Keys are expected to release their newest album sometime in 2010.

Friday, July 29 – 8:00 p.m.
