After a lifetime of entertaining Tampa Bay, Greg Billings Band plays a long sold-out final show on Saturday in Clearwater.

“It’s been great playing these songs the last 40 years,” said Billings in a press release. “But I feel it’s time to move on to the next phase of my music life.” Billings got national attention leading the ‘80s rock band Stranger (neé Romeo), but left in the mid-90s. Don’t be surprised if another Bay area celeb, Robin Zander, makes a surprise appearance; Billings worked with the Cheap Trick frontman a few times, both live and in the studio.

Masks are optional if you're vaxxed.
