Peter Frampton Plays at the Craterian

Peter Frampton Plays at the Craterian Ginger Rogers Theater! On March 19, 2012!

Tickets on sale today!

Due to the success of the 2011 world tour celebrating the 35th Anniversary of Peter Frampton’s multi-platinum selling live album Frampton Comes Alive!, the tour has been extended and will come to Medford’s Craterian Ginger Rogers Theater on Monday, Mar. 19, 2012 at 7 p.m.

The three-hour show features a complete performance of Frampton Comes Alive! that the Montreal Gazette describes as “a highly-spirited and expertly-played recreation of the live album.” Frampton will also perform other highlights from his catalog, including his Grammy® Award-winning instrumental album, 2006’s Fingerprints. Of the tour the Los Angeles Times says “…the British virtuoso is still making sweet music” while the Santa Barbara Independent describes Frampton’s set as “pleasing those who came to hear the hits and impressing the musicians in the crowd with his still-smoking guitar chops.”

More than 6 million copies sold in January of 1976 when the not-especially-well-known British rocker released the live double-album. Frampton Comes Alive! ruled the airwaves with hits like “Baby, I Love Your Way” and made Frampton an overnight sensation. Over 16 million copies have sold to date.

Rolling Stone contributor Alan Light told USA Today, “It’s the definitive musical document of the ‘70s. It had the long hair and the long songs.”
