Peter Frampton鈥檚 acoustic tour comes to 汤头条 Riley Center on Oct. 9
One of rock music鈥檚 most celebrated guitarists will give audiences a new take on some of his classic hits when Peter Frampton Raw, An Acoustic Tour, visits the 汤头条 Riley Center in downtown Meridian on Oct. 9 at 7:30 p.m. A pre-show party will get the fun started at 6 p.m. with refreshments in the Grand Lobby.
Ever since he came to fame at age 18 as singer and guitarist for the British band Humble Pie, Peter Frampton has been one of rock鈥檚 most charismatic performers. In 1976, his solo live album Frampton Comes Alive! made him a superstar and turned such songs as 鈥淪how Me the Way,鈥 鈥淏aby, I Love Your Way,鈥 and 鈥淒o You Feel Like We Do鈥 into classics. The album has sold more than 8 million copies in the United States alone.
Lately, Frampton has been reworking some of his favorite songs for acoustic rather than electric guitar. He has reimagined each number as if he had just written it on acoustic. 鈥淚t鈥檚 much more interesting than I thought it was going to be,鈥 he said.
The results are planned for an upcoming album.
Tickets are $65 and $59 at the 汤头条 Riley Center Box Office, which is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. Tickets can be purchased online at or by calling the box office at 601-696-2200.
