Howie Mandel, Air Supply & John Waite
Where can you catch great comedy and terrific music all in the same weekend? At AMT, of course!
Coming this Friday, February 10, it’s Canadian funny-man Howie Mandel. Howie started his career on a dare during a trip to LA in 1979. He was at the legendary Comedy Store on amateur night and was coaxed by his friends to get up and try his luck. That fateful night lead to a career in TV, film and stage. Howie can currently be seen on the TV series “MOBBED,” an unscripted show that puts a hidden-camera spin on the “flash mob” concept. Then this summer, he’ll return as one of the judges on “America’s Got Talent.”

The next evening, Saturday, February 11, we welcome the Aussie soft rock group Air Supply, and the lead singer of The Babys and Bad English, John Waite. With their heavily orchestrated, sweet ballads, Air Supply scored a string of seven straight Top Five singles. Vocalists Russell Hitchcock and Graham Russell met while performing in a Sydney, Australia production of Jesus Christ Superstar in 1976. The two singers formed a partnership and with the addition of four supporting musicians, Air Supply was born.
As a solo artist and a lead singer, English rocker John Waite has a talent for power ballads and driving arena rock, occasionally touching on new wave-styled power pop as well. In 2011, the title track from his tenth solo album “Rough and Tumble” went number one on Classic Rock radio.
