April 24, 2023

Buckle up, fellow audio heads, because this week we're stepping under the bright lights and into the bustling world of concerts with Night of Show.

Ever wondered what goes on backstage and what it takes to put together a heart-pounding, unforgettable concert? Well, concert promoter Adam Wilkes and NYT bestselling author Tom Wright take us on a deep dive into the lives and stories of the people truly responsible for creating these magical musical moments – the unsung heroes like concert promoters, stagehands, band managers, and of course, the musical acts themselves.

Season one draws on the experiences of John Meglen and Paul Gongaware, legendary concert promoters. As a young man, Paul started his career taking Elvis on his final tour. Together, he and John have fingerprints all over Prince's Super Bowl half-time performance, The Rolling Stones' groundbreaking concert in Cuba, Michael Jackson's tumultuous world tour. There’s even a little something for the Kenny G and The Beach Boys fans way in the back.
