Now is the time to elect a REAL leader!” With that in mind\, Tenacious D has put together The Purple Nurple Tour – Twisting Hard To The Left! – including their first Quad Cities appearance in 18 years on Friday\, September 25 at the Adler Theatre in Davenport. Show time is 8:00 p.m. Special guests will be Wynchester. Reserved seats ($79.50 and $65.00) become available on Friday\, March 6 at 10:00 a.m. and can be purchased online at Ticketmaster.com or in person at the Adler Theatre Box Office (136 E. 3rd St.). \nThe run of shows\, which focuses on swing states\, sees everyone’s favorite band (comprised of Jack Black and Kyle Gass) partnering with 46 for 46 to promote voter registration and overall civic action through music. \nSays The D: “In 2016\, six states were decided by 2 percentage points or less\, and ten states were decided by 4 percentage points or less. Swing states played a pivotal role in the outcome of that election\, and they will again in 2020. Knowing that\, we looked at each other and agreed: just like the tale of Post-Apocalypto\, it is time for Tenacious D to RIDE and help save the world from Trumpian destruction. With great rock comes great responsibility.” URL:https://www.thelaseronline.com/event/tenacious-d-in-davenport/2020-09-25/ CATEGORIES:Concerts ATTACH;FMTTYPE=: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20200926T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20200926T140000 DTSTAMP:20260406T165452 CREATED:20200924T193658Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200924T193658Z UID:113103-1601107200-1601128800@www.thelaseronline.com SUMMARY:Craft Vendors and Soup Luncheon at Oaks Senior Center DESCRIPTION:Crafty Vendors will be at OAKS Senior Center on Friday\, 9/25 \, and Saturday\, 9/26\, 8am- 2pm both days. \nPlus on Saturday 9/26 there will be a Soup Luncheon from 11am – 1:30pm.
