Men At Work’s Colin Hay sat out last month’s Ringo Starr concert in downtown Clearwater due to a chest infection, and while it was a bummer to see a stripped-down All-Starr Band, nary a year passes where the 72-year-old doesn’t pop into town.

The day before this Gen-X party featuring Toto and yacht rock legend Christopher Cross, Hay is releasing Man @ Work Volume 2, a follow-up to his 2003 album of acoustic rerecordings. The acoustic formula from before will still be in use, but there are more deep cuts included on this record, so don’t be thrown off if the current lineup of Men At Work (which is just Hay’s solo band with a different name, per what he told Creative Loafing Tampa Bay last year) dusts off something uber unfamiliar.

If anything, maybe Hay will join Toto (featuring fellow All-Starr Steve Lukather on guitar) to sing the chorus of “Africa” to make up for missing that Ringo gig, because at least we know they don’t get sick of each other.

Tickets to see Toto and Men at Work play MidFlorida Credit Union Amphitheatre in Tampa on Saturday, July 19 are still available and start at $32.50.
