Styx with Special Guest Loverboy
2025-11-15 19:30 - 22:30 | Charleston Coliseum and Convention Center, 200 Civic Center Dr, Charleston, West Virginia, 25301, United States
The seven men comprising Styx–James “JY” Young (lead vocals, guitars), Tommy Shaw (lead vocals, guitars), Chuck Panozzo (bass, vocals), Todd Sucherman (drums, percussion), Lawrence Gowan (lead vocals, keyboards), CRASH OF THE CROWN producer and co-writer Will Evankovich (guitars), Terry Gowan (bass, vocals)–have committed to rocking the Paradise together with audiences far and wide by entering their second decade of averaging 100 shows a year, and each one of them is committed to making the next show better than the last. Styx draws from over five decades of barn-burning chart hits, joyous singalongs, and hard-driving deep cuts. Like a symphony that builds to a satisfying crescendo, a Styx set covers a wide range of stylistic cornerstones. From the progressively sweeping splendor that is “The Grand Illusion” to the hunker-down fortitude of all that is the “Blue Collar Man,” from the regal reach-for-the-stars bravado of “Come Sail Away” to the grainy all-in gallop of that rugged “Renegade” who had it made, the band draws on an unlimited cache of ways to immerse one’s mind and body in their signature sound.

After more than two decades together on the road, this incarnation of Styx is looking forward to performing as many shows as it can as long as it can. “Music is this amazing force that comes from a higher place. I’m humbled for this band to have the great success that it has,” says co-founding guitarist/vocalist James “JY” Young. “The legacy of this band will be that it brought joy to millions of people,” notes drummer Todd Sucherman. Observes keyboardist/vocalist Lawrence Gowan, “We’ve always tried to explain why this is this happening. It’s obviously a multitude of factors, but the main one is that our show is really good! And if it’s really good, they’re going to come to see it again.” Styx hopes it’s a wave that never crests. “Every night, we go on that magic carpet ride together,” observes original bassist Chuck Panozzo, who joins the band on tour as often as he can. “We just want to keep on doing this,” asserts Tommy. “We want to let life take its course and let this music continue to be the soundtrack to it. And this band will continue to evolve as long as we live and play this music.”

For more than 40 years, LOVERBOY has been “Working for the Weekend” (and on weekends), delighting audiences around the world since forming in 1978, when vocalist Mike Reno was introduced to guitar hot shot Paul Dean – both veterans of several bands on the Canadian scene – at Calgary’s Refinery Night Club. Along with Reno and Dean, LOVERBOY still includes original members Doug Johnson on keyboards and Matt Frenette on drums, with Ken “Spider” Sinnaeve (a former member of Dean and Frenette’s pre-LOVERBOY band Streetheart), replacing the late Scott Smith on bass, and continues a healthy touring schedule around the world.

2025-11-20 19:30 - 23:00 | Charleston Coliseum and Convention Center, 200 Civic Center Dr, Charleston, West Virginia, 25301, United States
Zeiders is a true road warrior and shows no signs of slowing down, playing bigger markets and bigger venues. These 2025 “Relapse” Tour dates follow his incredibly successful 2023-2024 “Pretty Little Poison” headlining tour, which sold over 150k tickets across 55+ SOLD-OUT shows across the US and Canada, including a standout performance at Nashville’s iconic Ryman Auditorium and appearances at major festivals like Stagecoach, Faster Horses, Watershed and more, before performing as direct-support on Jelly Roll’s The Beautifully Broken Tour.

His undeniable star power continues to capture audiences across genre lines and is rapidly cementing himself as one of Country’s newest and most-promising genre staples. In 2024, he earned two, fan-voted PEOPLE’s Choice Country nomination and won a CMT Award in 2024, and at just 25, Zeiders has already surpassed 3.6 billion+ global career streams and has earned a staggering 2 billion+ TikTok views and 7.8 million+ monthly Spotify listeners. He earned seven coveted spots on Billboard’s 2024 year-end charts and kicked off 2025 with his first-ever European headlining tour. Additionally, in February, Zeiders performed at the 2025 New Faces of Country Music showcase, which is fitting considering he had the No. 2 most-played song on all of Country radio in 2024.

On Friday (3.14), Zeiders released his 21-track album Relapse, Lies, & Betrayal via Warner Records

Nate Bargatze: Big Dumb Eyes World Tour
2025-11-23 19:00 - 21:00 | Charleston Coliseum and Convention Center, 200 Civic Center Dr, Charleston, West Virginia, 25301, United States
Hailed as “The Nicest Man in Stand-Up,” by The Atlantic Magazine and “One of the Funniest People,” by CBS Morning, Grammy nominated comedian, podcaster, director and producer Nate Bargatze is selling out shows and breaking venue attendance records with more than 1.2 million tickets sold on his The Be Funny Tour. He is currently the #1 earning comedian in the world according to Pollstar’s recent report, and #12 in overall live tour tickets sales, putting him in the company of Coldplay, Madonna and U2.

Bargatze recently hosted Saturday Night Live for the second time in one year, to rave reviews with Vulture.com asking the question, “Has Nate Bargatze Cracked The SNL code?” Bargatze hosted SNL for the first time in 2023, securing high ratings for the program with Vanity Fair calling him, “A Great Saturday Night Live Host,” and Entertainment Weekly exclaiming, “A frighteningly funny Halloween episode.”

This Fall, Nate will co-produce a holiday variety special with Lorne Michaels for CBS which will air 12/19. He also announced his new book from Grand Central Publishing, Big Dumb Eyes: Stories From A Simpler Mind, set to be published May 2025.

In 2023, Bargatze broke the attendance record at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville. The next month, he also broke the record for tickets sold at The Delta Center in Salt Lake City – the highest amount ever sold by a comedian at the venue. In 2024 he broke 20 total arena records.

Nate’s first solo one-hour Netflix special, The Tennessee Kid, premiered globally with rave reviews in 2019. In 2021, he released his critically acclaimed second Netflix special, The Greatest Average American, which received a Grammy nomination for Best Comedy Album. In 2023, Nate released his latest and third one-hour special, Nate Bargatze: Hello World, on Amazon Prime which now holds the record as Amazon’s most-streamed original comedy special in its first 28 days of viewership.

Bargatze was recently signed to Universal Music Group Nashville as their flagship comedian under their new Capitol Comedy label. He also recently performed two sold out shows at The Hollywood Bowl with Jerry Seinfeld, Jim Gaffigan and Sebastian Maniscalco.

Bargatze’s comedy is both clean and relatable, evident in his 13 appearances on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, the most appearances by any comedian. He also appeared on Conan four times and has appeared on Seth Meyers and James Corden’s respective late-night shows.

In 2023, Bargatze unveiled Nateland Entertainment, a family friendly content company where he produces standup comedy specials, showcases, sketches, and scripted episodic content for film, television, podcasts, music and more.

Raised in Old Hickory, TN., Nate currently resides in Nashville, TN with his wife and daughter.
