It may only be the middle of 2012, but we’re super busy planning our celebrity concert schedule for 2013.

We have a long “wish list” of artists we’d love to welcome to our stage next year, and our booking agent is hard at work building a great line-up of terrific entertainers and shows to offer our fans in 2013.

We bet you’d love to know who’s on the list so far and coming to AMT next year, right? Well, we’d love to tell you, but we’ve been sworn to secrecy for now. So, we’re hoping you can wait just a little longer until some time in July when we make our big 2013 concert schedule announcements.

For now, we can tell you we’ll welcome some returning favorites, along with some new-to-AMT performers. We continue to add to our 2013 schedule almost daily, so keep your eye on our website and also watch for announcement emails. If you’re not currently on our email list, sign up here so you won’t miss out on any of the news.

With all the super celebrity concerts and Original Shows we’re planning, we think 2013 is going to be a very lucky year!

AMT is lucky #5! We’re the fifth stop on the 13th edition of the Ringo Starr and His All Starr Band tour.

Every song performed by these rock legends is a blast from rock’s past, and fans can expect to hear a jukebox worth of hits. Included are Ringo classics such as “It Don’t Come Easy,” “Photograph,” “Little Help From My Friends,” “Yellow Submarine” and “Wings,” from Ringo’s just released 17th solo record, Ringo 2012 (Hip-O/Ume).

An ultimate Michael Jackson tribute band needs glitzy jackets, glittery gloves and 80s regalia. It must pay studious attention to the intricate details of every original groove and gravity-defying dance step. It must demonstrate a commitment to the unforgettable musical legacy the King of Pop left us.

In 2004, WHO’S BAD mesmerized a standing-room only gathering of friends and pop music lovers at a small nightclub in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. They have since played over 700 shows in numerous countries and now boast the title, “The Ultimate Michael Jackson Tribute Band.” Their live performance is a musical extravaganza that pulls from hours of Michael Jackson’s catalogue and spans four decades of MJ’s extraordinary music career.

From ABC to You Rock My World, no song is forgotten in this electrifying revival of pop music’s royal highness. WHO’S BAD has crafted an intricate performance complete with synchronized dance routines, a blaring horn section and down-deep rhythms. They’re the longest running MJ tribute band and the only one that predates his passing.

Whether you idolized the Jackson 5, fell in love to Human Nature or memorized all of Thriller’s creepy choreography, WHO’S BAD: The Ultimate Michael Jackson Tribute Band is authentic, music-driven, must-see entertainment that navigates you back to that special place.
