Smokey Robinson is 83 and on tour. Here’s how to get tickets today.
Let’s get one thing out of the way.
Even at 83, Smokey Robinson sounds just as good today as he did 66 years ago (!) when he exploded onto the scene in 1957 with The Miracles.
And based on the catchy lead single “If We Don’t Have Each Other” from his upcoming album “‘Gasms,” it appears he still has a few tricks up his sleeve too.
But Robinsion isn’t just sticking to the recording studio this year.
From March through August, the Rock and Roll Hall of Famer is touring and bringing hits like “Tears Of A Clown,” “Cruisin’” and “Tracks Of My Tears,” all over North America.
New Yorkers and New Jerseyans, you won’t need to shed any tears either.
The timeless crooner will be at Atlantic City’s Borgata Casino Event Center on March 3, Newark’s New Jersey Performing Arts Center on March 4 and Atlantic City’s Caesars on July 27.
However, the best news of all is that some tickets to see the Grammy winner are available for just $60 before fees on Vivid Seats.
That’s a bargain considering you’ll be seeing one of the all-time greatest singers live.
