concert alert Santana and Derek Trucks Band

From my vigilant music spy at 8:19 am, Tim Constaneda, owner of the hippest and most music fan based Mexican restaurant in the greater Big D, Zumba's of Royal Oak:

We are getting an incredible show at the Palace of Auburn Hills;

April 18th SANTANA wsg The Derek Trucks Band.

Your local updater jumped on this immediately to get an onsale date. The "man" at Live Nation never sleeps and replied immediately. We can look at an on sale date sometime in mid February.

While I have your attention, one of my other Live Nation friends, informed me that I need to tell you that THE NORTH MISSISSIPPI ALLSTARS are playing St Andrews on Feb 1st.
