90s Florida Band Will Be Tampa Area’s First Major Drive-In Concert
It’s a sign of the times for sure. Given the COVID-19 life keeping us distant, concerts have become a distant memory. One band from Florida that hit it big in the 1990s is looking to bring the music back to Tampa Bay. It’ll be the area’s first major “drive in concert” when Sister Hazel plays Raymond James Stadium in Tampa on October 22. They won’t play inside the stadium. According to the Tampa Bay Times, the show will be held in parking lots 3 and 4 at Ray Jay.
Get there early to get a spot up close. But pro tip: don’t bring a big vehicle because they’ll be put near the back rows. They’ll open the lots at 6pm. Bring a car load of friends because individual tickets aren’t being sold. Instead, they’ll charge by the car. Prices start at $149. If you have more than 4 in your car, add $25 per person. Tickets are for sale at the band’s website sisterhazel.com.
If the name Sister Hazel doesn’t ring a bell, their hits should job your memory. The band’s biggest hit was “All For You” in 1997. Check out their cover of The Eagles’ “Peaceful Easy Feeling.” I got to see it live in a backyard mini concert the band did for some of my listeners on my old radio station.
