'I Want My 80s' Tour Coming To New Lenox, 1 Of 5 Shows In Summer Concert Series

NEW LENOX, IL — New Lenox residents got a glimpse of this year's Summer Concert Series, with one act unveiled this week.

The "I Want My 80s Tour"—featuring "Jessie's Girl" crooner Rick Springfield, John Waite and Wang Chung—will roll into the New Lenox Commons on Friday, June 27. They'll also be joined by Paul Young at the New Lenox stop, according to UltimateClassicRock.com.

The show is one of five concerts lined up for the series, New Lenox Mayor Tim Baldermann said Thursday. Tickets for each show will be sold separately, sticking with last year's shift from the all-inclusive Triple Play package, and focusing instead on single show sales.

Additional acts are expected to be announced in coming weeks. The acts are all "speaking to different tastes," Baldermann said.

News on ticket sales and more information is still yet to come.

This year's series follows a summer that saw legends like Smokey Robinson and Ringo Starr and His All Starr Band take to the stage in New Lenox. Tickets for those were also sold separately.
