BOCA RATON — As part of the city of Boca Raton’s summer concert series, Music @ Mizner: A Tribute to the Legends, Eagles’ tribute band “The Long Run” will perform Saturday, July 9 at 8 p.m. at the Mizner Park Amphitheater, 590 Plaza Real in downtown Boca. Admission is free.
“Gastro Trucks” will be on site to delight concert goers. All the rage among South Florida’s ‘Foodies,’ several different trucks will be featured at each tribute concert throughout the summer.
The Long Run captures the energy and melodies of the Eagles with five voices filling the harmonic vocals. They have performed with such acts as Trisha Yearwood, Gary “U.S.” Bonds, The Romantics, Julio Iglesias Jr. and Pattie Loveless.
“We play throughout South Florida and beyond, but are most excited about performing literally in our own backyard,” said Gary Wayne, lead singer and Boca Raton resident. “We’re a six man band of non-clashing egos and we get along great. This comes through in our stage show.”
Attendees are encouraged to bring their own chairs and blankets for lawn seating. Food and beverages will be available inside the venue, and therefore, outside food and beverages are prohibited.
