The Show Me Center is starting the summer off in big fashion this June, with concerts scheduled by established country singer Martina McBride and prog-metal outfit Tool.
McBride will take the stage June 7, while Tool hits the venue on June 16.
Show Me Center Marketing Director Shannon Buford said the Tool concert is a big chance for local rock fans to turn out and show promoters that concerts by non-country acts can sell well in Southeast Missouri, too.
The Show Me Center's concert offerings have been heavy on the country side in the past few years, with rock acts visiting the venue only rarely. In the past academic year Brad Paisley, Carrie Underwood and Dierks Bentley are just some of the artists who have played the venue.
