Concert - Billy Joel Tribute Night with Wade Preston

A Night of Billy Joel Music   (Upgraded Dinner & Show also available)                                             Doors @ 7:00 PM    Bar Available

 

Purchase your concert ticket for Wade Preston from Billy Joel’s Broadway hit Movin’ Out delivers an impeccable show with time honored favorites and original compositions. It’s not often a man can sit in front of a piano and command full attention, but Mr. Preston can drop a stadium full of jaws, keeping his audiences engaged and participating.
Wade played the “Piano Man” role in Billy Joel and Twyla Tharp’s Broadway hit Movin’ Out for its entire 3 ½ year run, and starred off and on in the national tours for the next few years. He still does occasional concerts with the Movin’ Out Band™.
Billy Joel was so impressed by Wade’s performances that he asked him to do virtually all the rehearsals and sound checks for Joel’s historic Last Play at Shea concerts; Job description “Stunt Billy.”

Prior to Movin’ Out, Wade was well known on the west coast as the preeminent boogie pianist, revered for his rollicking performances, stunning technical abilities, spirited versatile singing and sense of humor.


Wade is focused mainly on solo concerts now, featuring Billy’s music along with the eclectic mix of styles that he was so well known for long before Movin’ Out ever hit Broadway. He also has a new version of the Wade Preston Band, a trio featuring Jon Ventre on bass and Steve Kurilla on drums he is occasionally doing shows with. They are featured on Wade’s 2020 CD of original songs Lost In the Noise as well as Wade Preston Christmas that was released in 2023. They are available on iTunes and all digital streaming platforms.

Deal - Celebrating the Music of the Grateful Dead

 Celebrate the Music of the Grateful Dead at the Bell Tower with tribute band, Deal. Enjoy the evening in your tie-dye, jamming with your friends in an intimate venue.


About the Band: Deal has been keeping the spirit of the Grateful Dead alive since 2017, delivering soulful, high-energy performances that honor the music while carving out a sound that is unmistakably their own. What began as a small group of musicians united by a deep love for the Dead has grown into one of the region’s most vibrant and beloved tribute acts.


Over the years, Deal has cultivated not just a following, but a true community throughout the Lehigh Valley and down through the greater Philadelphia area. Their fans—many of whom travel from show to show—have become more like family than an audience. At each performance, familiar faces gather, new friendships spark, and the room fills with the same collective spirit that has always defined Deadhead culture. It’s this sense of togetherness, acceptance, and shared joy that keeps the Deal family growing.

Fans are drawn not only to Deal’s dedication to the Grateful Dead’s catalog, but to the unmistakable chemistry, improvisation, and emotional depth they bring to every show. Whether diving into expansive jams, exploring the subtleties of classic tunes, or adding their own fresh twists, Deal captures the energy, freedom, and communal magic that defined the original Grateful Dead experience.

Each performance is a journey—familiar yet unpredictable, nostalgic yet new—inviting Deadheads and newcomers alike to join the ride and become part of the ever-expanding Deal family.


Band Members:

John Smith – Lead Guitar & Vocals

Chris Lelli – Rhythm Guitar & Lead Vocals

Chris Willean – Drums

Bob Noble – Bass & Vocals

John Bigham – Keyboards


Tickets: $17.50 online (includes fees), $20 at the door Beer/Wine will be sold on site.

(Please do not bring your own).

A VERY Special Evening With Craig Thatcher

With his Four Piece Quartet  -  SPONSORED BY BLUE MOUNTAIN SIGN CRAFTERS


Craig Thatcher is an International Clinician/Ambassador for C.F. Martin & Co. of Nazareth, PA, a guitar instructor & recording artist.

He has worked with and/or opened for many great artists including: Simone, Buddy Guy, Derek Trucks, John Mayall, Jimmie Vaughan, Duke Robillard, John Hammond, The Fabulous Thunderbirds, Jonny Lang, Vanilla Fudge, Charlie Musselwhite, Train, Robin Trower, Dicky Betts, Savoy Brown, Jorma Kaukonen, Marty Stuart b& the Superlatives, Roseanne Cash, Roger McGuinn, Rory Block, Woody Mann, Peter Rowan, Herman's Hermits, Spencer Davis Group, Laurence Juber, John Mayer, David Bromberg, Steve Miller, Bill Kirchen, GE Smith and many other international artists. 


Craig began playing guitar in 1964, after seeing the Beatles on Ed Sullivan. By 1966 he was in his first band and by 1968, the band started getting paid for performances. Though Craig's early influences were Beatles, Rolling Stones, the Animals, Herman's Hermits, the Yardbirds and many other pop acts, once he heard Eric Clapton and then, Jimi Hendrix, his focus changed to a much heavier rock style of lead guitar, based in the blues. CTB's music spans many musical genres including folk, funk/jazz, blues and rock. Craig also has become a strong solo acoustic guitarist, focusing primarily on fingerstyle country blues. Craig has performed in one capacity or another—often as a Martin Guitar Artist/Clinician — in nearly every U.S. State as well as over 35 different countries.
