PRINCETON, IN) - The Journey tribute band, Resurrection, has been added as the opening act for the Gibson County Eclipse Celebration concert on April 7, 2024 at the Gibson County Fairgrounds. The concert will now be a two-for-one, with Hotel California, the original Eagles tribute, taking the stage following the Resurrection performance. Resurrection - A Journey Tribute, considered to be 'The Gold Standard' by which all Journey tributes are measured, faithfully recreates the experience of a 1980’s Journey concert. This dynamic band has featured some of Nashville's hottest musicians, many of whom have performed, written, or recorded with the biggest names in the music industry - including Journey and Steve Perry.
The Journey tribute band performance is being made possible by the City of Princeton while the Hotel California performance is made possible by Toyota Indiana. The City of Princeton is also sponsoring free fireworks on Friday, April 5th at the Gibson County Fairgrounds.
