* Atlanta Rhythm Section (Mardi Gras Casino)

Jeff Eats just received the “below” email from the Mardi Gras Casino in Hallandale Beach…

The “skinny”…for you-guys who follow “Classic Rock N Roll” is that the Atlanta Rhythm Section is scheduled to appear in concert on Tuesday Night–August 13, 2013 in the Grandstand section of the casino.

Based on the last 2-concerts that Jeff Eats attended at the Mardi Gras…The Lovin’ Spoonful and The Grass Roots—I can tell you, if the weather is good, the Mardi Gras Casino is a great out-door venue for a Rock N Roll show.

Keep it to yourself, but every seat in the house is terrific…so those 10 buck tickets-will work perfectly.

For more than 30 years, members of The Atlanta Rhythm Section have entertained audiences all over the world with their hits. The members of Atlanta Rhythm Section originally came together as a session band at Studio One, an Atlanta area studio recording artists like Lynyrd Skynyrd, Al Kooper, Dickey Betts and .38 Special. The band put out 15 albums and was paired with contemporaries Lynyrd Skynyrd as the successors to the Allman Brothers – carrying the mantle of “Southern Rock” in the late 70s. But performing songs that were more musically diverse and having hits that had a softer, pop flavor, they had a sound all their own. Influenced by music coming out of England and sharing the musical styling’s of groups likes The Eagles and Fleetwood Mac, the members of ARS were accomplished musicians who constantly tried to evolve – think Steely Dan or Little Feat.

With multiple gold and platinum albums to their credit, the band had 2 top 10 singles, “So Into You” and “Imaginary Lover”, as well as Top 40 hits including “Doraville”, “I’m Not Gonna Let It Bother Me Tonight”, “Do It Or Die” and “Spooky”.

Mardi Gras Casino is located at 831 North Federal Highway on the corner of US-1 and Pembroke Road. The casino offers over 70,000 square feet of casino excitement featuring 1,100 Las Vegas-style slot machines, including new-linked Progressive slots, video roulette and blackjack, and Vegas-Star Roulette; 30 action-packed poker tables; simulcast and greyhound racing; and various dining options.
