As luck would have it, they\u2019re playing the Helwig Winery in nearby Plymouth. It\u2019s a Saturday night and you can even book a nearby hotel if you want to party with the big boys\/girls. For those who need a musical history lesson, get\u00a0<em>Agents of Fortune<\/em>\u00a0(1976) or even\u00a0<em>Spectres<\/em>\u00a0(1977). Odds are, you will buy everything they have to offer, no new album needed. General admission tickets are $80, with the option to add a pre-show dinner and a band meet and greet.
