If youโ€™re expecting to hear the recent Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee Pat Benatar and her husband perform โ€œHit Me With Your Best Shotโ€ Thursday night, lower your expectations.

Last summer, the 70-year-old classic rock songstress omitted the track from her setlists completely, due to the seemingly-daily occurrence of mass shootings in America. Weโ€™ll miss hearing it, but honestly, let the songโ€™s absence at Ruth Eckerd Hall on Thursday night be the worst thing that happens for the rest of the yearโ€”or for that matter, ever.

Ruth Eckerd Hall describes the husband and wife duo having โ€œundeniable chemistryโ€ and a โ€œunique sound.โ€ Tickets for this week’s performanceโ€”happening on Thursday, April 27โ€” start at $53.25 and are still available for purchase on the venue’s website.
