Hall of Fame Icons Concert: An Unmissable Tribute Featuring Australian Eagles Show and Money For Nothin: Dire Straits ExperienceGet ready for an electrifying night as the Hall of Fame Icons concert brings two legendary tributes to the stage in an unforgettable night of rock ‘n’ roll magic. Featuring the internationally celebrated Australian Eagles Show and the electrifying Money For Nothin: Dire Straits Experience, this event promises to be a musical extravaganza like no other.
The Australian Eagles Show, renowned for their pitch-perfect renditions of Eagles classics, is fronted by the talented Michael Thompson and Shayne Browne. This five-piece band has wowed audiences across the globe with their meticulous recreation of the Eagles' timeless hits. From the melodic ‘Desperado’ to the high-octane ‘Life in the Fast Lane,’ and the soulful ‘New Kid in Town,’ every performance is a journey through the Eagles' storied catalog. Fans can also look forward to tributes to the solo hits of Joe Walsh, Don Henley, and the late Glenn Frey.
Formed in Los Angeles in 1971, the Eagles achieved legendary status with five number-one singles, six Grammy Awards, five American Music Awards, six number-one albums, and over 150 million records sold worldwide. Their ‘Eagles Greatest Hits’ album remains one of the best-selling albums of the 20th century, and the Australian Eagles Show brings this legacy to life with an authenticity that is second to none.
Joining Australian Eagles is Money For Nothin: Dire Straits Experience, a tribute formed in 2017 that captures the essence of one of the most beloved groups from the 70s and 80s. Led by the seasoned Terry McMahon, whose guitar skills and vocals mirror the legendary Mark Knopfler with uncanny precision, Money For Nothin delivers a performance that is a must-see for rock enthusiasts and Dire Straits fans alike. With a six-piece live band, they recreate the iconic sound of Dire Straits, delivering every riff and solo with passion and precision.
Dire Straits, formed in 1977, is celebrated for their distinctive sound that blends rock, jazz, and blues. The band, led by Mark Knopfler, achieved massive success with over 120 million albums sold worldwide, four Grammy Awards, and two Brit Awards. Their critically acclaimed albums like "Brothers in Arms," which sold over 30 million copies globally, and iconic hits such as "Sultans of Swing," "Money for Nothing," "Walk of Life," and "Romeo and Juliet" have solidified their place in rock history.
