300 Elm St, Rockford, IL 61101

Legendary rock band REO Speedwagon is set to bring their iconic sound to the BMO Center in Rockford for an unforgettable night of classic hits!

REO Speedwagon's unrelenting drive, as well as non-stop touring and recording jump-started the burgeoning rock movement in the Midwest. Platinum albums & radio staples soon followed, setting the stage for the release of the band's explosive Hi Infidelity in 1980, which contained the massive hit singles 'Keep On Loving You' & 'Take It On the Run.' That album spent 15 weeks in the No. 1 slot & has since earned the RIAA's coveted 10X Diamond Award for surpassing sales of 10 million units in the U.S. Today, REO Speedwagon has sold more than 40 million albums, & Cronin & bandmates Bruce Hall (bass), Dave Amato (guitar), Bryan Hitt (drums), & Derek Hilland (touring keyboardist) are still electrifying audiences worldwide in concert with hits & fan-favorites such as 'Ridin' 'The Storm Out,' 'I Can't Fight This Feeling,' 'Time For Me To Fly,' 'Roll With The Changes,' the aforementioned 'Keep On Loving You' & more.
