Show Announcements: Three Dog Night Coming To Arlington, More

As Three Dog Night's website boasts, "From 1969-1974, nobody had more Top 10 hits, moved more records, or sold more concert tickets."

As Three Dog Night's website boasts, "From 1969-1974, nobody had more Top 10 hits, moved more records, or sold more concert tickets."

But just because the band is some four decades beyond its glory days doesn't mean it isn't keeping busy. The group--including original members Cory Wells and Danny Hutton on lead vocals, as well as original keyboardist Jimmy Greenspoon and guitarist Michael Allsup--will manage to squeeze in a performance at the Levitt Pavilion in Arlington between the requisite casino, state fair and cruise-ship appearances that are the eventual fate of most classic rock groups.

Tickets for the show, which go on sale to the public April 15, will be $25. VIP tickets, which include dinner before the show and VIP seating, are $150. Proceeds help fund the 50 free shows held each year at the community venue.
