Fans in the U.K. will have yet another reason to celebrate the life and music of Bob Marley on June 19 and June 26 at the Odeon Covent Garden Theatre in London, when "Bob Marley Live at the Rainbow" is premiered in these new formats.
Stephen, whose debut solo album, Mind Control, has taken the reggae charts by storm since its release in April, will host a special Q and A after the show on the 19th (his segment will be rebroadacast on the 26th) and will help give away a special-edition Bob Marley Gibson guitar. A portion of the event's proceeds will be donated to the Nordoff-Robbins Music Therapy charity.
The Rainbow Theatre show, also in London, took place in June 1977, the same month that saw Bob release what many consider to be his masterwork of an album, Exodus. Bob had been in self-imposed "exile" in London after he and his wife, Rita, survived an assassination attempt in Jamaica.
This June's theatrical events will continue the following week at select Odeon theatres throughout the U.K. Tickets and event info can be found by visiting www.DandEentertainment.com.
