Nashville Rocks for a Cause: Icons Unite for Cancer Research

Get ready for a night of nostalgia and star power in Nashville! A special concert is happening on November 23rd, featuring some of the biggest names from the '70s and '80s rock scene. The event is part of Scott Hamilton's annual fundraiser for cancer research, and this year, he's pulled together an incredible lineup. The show will feature Kevin Cronin from REO Speedwagon, Wally Palmar of The Romantics, Mike Reno and his wife Catherine St. Germain from Loverboy, Jason Derlatka of Journey, Jason Scheff from Chicago, and John Elefante, formerly of Kansas. These artists will perform their biggest hits, giving fans a chance to hear their favorite songs live. The concert isn't just about music, though. It's also about bringing people together for a great cause. Scott Hamilton, a cancer survivor himself, started this event to raise money for cancer research and support. He founded CARES and The 4th Angel, an organization that helps newly diagnosed cancer patients by connecting them with survivors. What makes this event even more special is the unique setting. The Bridgestone Arena in Nashville is transformed into an intimate theater for the night. The ice is covered with seats, bringing the audience closer to the performers and skaters. It's an experience that's hard to forget. Hamilton is thrilled to have these legendary artists perform. He admits that he used to be a huge fan of many of them and never imagined he'd get to work with them. The show features skaters like Nathan Chen, Maxim Naumov, Keegan Messing, and Gracie Gold, who will perform to the music of these iconic bands. Every year, the event gets bigger and better. Hamilton jokes that people often leave the show amazed, saying they didn't know it would be so incredible. He believes that raising money for cancer research is his true calling and that the efforts are making a difference.
