Tickets to see Hank Williams Jr. play MidFlorida Credit Union Amphitheatre in Tampa, on Friday, May 19 are on sale now and start at $29.50. Old Crow Medicine Show opens the gig, which is the only Florida stop on the tour.
Williams Jr.—aka Bocephus—is the offspring of Hank Williams and touring behind his latest album, Rich White Honky Blues, released last summer, complete with tributes to R.L Burnside, Jimmy Reed and others.
A staple of the outlaw country scene, the 73-year-old is also something of a political lightning rod, who once falsely stated the President Barack Obama is a Muslim and was famously fired from ESPN after allusions to Hitler.
While he’s known for cuts like “Family Tradition” and “A Country Boy Can Survive,” Williams Jr. has also recorded anti-Obama tunes (“Keep The Change”) and an NFL protest song (“Take A Knee, Take A Hike”).
