Bob Seger Tickets, Schedule and Information

Now that Bob Seger tickets are selling like wildfire, the news has just come out that Bob Seger's latest single will be a cover of "Downtown Train", the Tom Waits song already covered by another rock legend currently on tour, Rod Stewart. The gritty tune was virtually tailor-made for Seger's soulful style, and the Detroit rocker was heard playing on Detroit radio stations today, Monday, February 28, singing those lyrics as only he can. I'm sure Tom Waits would agree that, along with himself and Stewart, few other people could have made such a good job of the tune. Right on the eve of the Bob Seger tour, this couldn't have happened at a better time, though some of Bob Seger's previous timing went against him; Rod Stewart's version was recorded with Jeff Beck in the late 80s, thwarting Seger's ambitions to release the song himself. Bob had recorded "Downtown Train" and was planning to bring it out, but was forced to change that when Stewart and Beck hit the Billboard Top 10 with the song. Be assured that "Downtown Train" will be featured on Seger's upcoming album, out later this year and as yet untitled. The 2011 Bob Seger tour is sending pulsations through the music world, and those familiar with the massive output of the Heartland Rocker will have already bought their Bob Seger tickets. Check out the Bob Seger schedule and make sure you get to see Bob on what promises to be one of the hottest concert tours of 2011. Seger's music is the music of the neon backstreets, the corner bars and muffler shops where the smell of oil and cigarettes are a constant accompaniment to the local rock station playing on a battered radio. If you love heartland rock, Bob Seger is surely in your top 3 artists, with one of the biggest back catalogs out there. If you can listen to "Like a Rock", "Turn the Page", "Beautiful Loser" or "Night Moves" and not want to dance and feel alive, then you're made of stone, brother.
