Al is no stranger to Tampa Bay. Whether he’s opening for The Monkees’ reunion tour, or kicking off a U.S. tour with a full orchestra behind him, the 62-year old “Tacky” sensation always has new tricks up his sleeve. This tour, however, will be a continuation of a costume-free, screenless, intimate-style concert that only features his original songs—and the setlist is Springsteened every night, so no two shows will be the same.

If you can’t make it to Clearwater, Al and his four-piece band will also rock Pensacola, Melbourne, Ft. Lauderdale, Orlando, and Orange Park. Yeah, it’s a big tour.
