Discounts are available for students, children, military, and seniors. Formed in 1969, Wishbone Ash is celebrated for their innovative twin-guitar sound and progressive rock influences. With a discography spanning five decades, their timeless album Argus remains a cornerstone of classic rock. The band—featuring Andy Powell (guitar/lead vocals), Mark Abrahams (guitar), Mike Truscott (drums), and Bob Skeat (backup vocals)—has spent more than 50 years touring the globe and releasing new music. This interactive tour allows fans to shape the setlist by requesting their favorite songs via social media. "I love the interactive element," says Powell, the band's founding guitarist, vocalist, and songwriter. "We have over 500 songs, and it's fun to let the fans decide what they want to hear." In addition to playing Argus, which features timeless hits like "Blowin' Free" and "The King Will Come," Wishbone Ash will perform other fan-chosen classics. Powell compares their loyal following to that of the Grateful Dead, with a career built not on radio play, but on word of mouth and a dedicated fan base.
