Former Nickelback opener Theory of a Deadman plays Tampa’s Hard Rock Event Center next week

Two decades years after opening for Nickelback (wait, don’t leave yet!) Theory of a Deadman is still active both on the road and in the studio.

Maybe six weeks before COVID-19 hit, the band behind “Bitch Come Back” unveiled Say Nothing, which hit no. 5 on the Billboard Top Alternative Albums. It ain’t no. 1, but it’s something! You have the chance to go party with the Canadian quartet at the Hard Rock Event Center in Tampa on Wednesday, March 2 without the aid of an opening act.

You know how packed a show like this can get at the Hard Rock, so just to be safe, bring a mask.
