 **GENERAL ADMISSION / ALL AGES**

 

Bryan Adams continues his highly successful "Bare Bones" acoustic concert tour in select Canadian cities this year.  The intimate concert will come to  Red Deer  at Red Deer Memorial Centre on Sunday, August 15th.  Tickets go on sale at 10am on Friday, July 16th at www.livenation.com.

Adams has interspersed these special sold-out performances in between stadium dates and this new spin on his classic hits has been met with rave reviews from critics and fans alike: 

 

"Armed only with a small array of acoustic guitars,  Adams  packed enthusiastic fans � sometimes a bit too enthusiastic � into the intimate Sheldon for a great night of music and insight."     St. Louis  Post Dispatch

  

"They sang along with the ever-so-familiar choruses, filled in vocal gaps he left for them, clapped the missing drum parts, hummed the missing solos, and roared their approval after every offering, right up to a long and hearty standing ovation after 'Run To You'."   Toronto  Star

 

"Threading hits with new material, the soundtrack-singer and celebrity-portrait shooter (the stage design consisted of six towering lighting stands), succeeded in transferring his emotional ballads and crafted, sing-along rock to a mature setting." Globe and Mail 


The show at the Red Deer Memorial Centre provides a rare opportunity for fans to see  Adams  as they've not seen him before!
