I would love to see Kimberly Carter at the Lexington Opera House! She's great, and if you haven't seen her live she'll blow your mind with her entertainment. Check www.kimberlycarter.net

bryancombs

Even though they played Rupp last year, seeing Kings of Leon at the Lexington Opera House in a more intimate setting would be off the chain.

joekillin

Acts I would like to see come to Lexington would be Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, Robin Trower, Al Stewart and a new Dutch Band called Kingfisher Sky.

And I would like to see any new variation of Led Zeppilin plus anything with Jimmy Page or Robert Plant etc.,

Would love to see more blues acts, both new and established. Derek Trucks Band always puts on a good show, would love to see Buddy Guy at the Opera House. Maybe Keb Mo for a lighter sound. And whoever above said Robert Randolph and his Family Band- yes, YES 1000 times YES!

Would love to see any of the old classic bands that are still together. Also, really like Sugarland or Little Big Town. Rascal Flatts are also a favorite.

Tammy Duff

Thanks Lex Opera House for bringing JB to the bluegrass state. Would also love to see Derek Trucks Susan Tedeschi Band, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Johnny Lang, Govt. Mule, Buddy Guy, and if possible getting King BB would be really be most awesome!

jeffhoward

I am a fan of classic rock and roll. I would love to see any of the following bands:

Deep Purple
Jethro Tull
Blue Oyster Cult
Santana

I also would like to see a newer artist:

John Mayer

Also, a play I would love to see that sometimes plays in Louisville and Cincinnati. I did see this play years ago at the Lexington Opera House, complete with full orchestra. They now use a bunch of keyboards and synthesizers, but still sound great.

Jesus Christ, Superstar

rob_marrow

I would love to see artists like Lyle Lovett, Jackson Browne, CSN(Y), Peter Frampton, Chris Isaak, Buddy Guy, Kenny Wayne Shephard, etc. at the Opera House. It's a fantastic venue and it could really help promote Lexington's reputation as a music town. I used to live in the SF Bay Area and went to a lot of shows at the Mountain Winery which is about the same size so I know these artists are willing to play smaller venues. While the Mountain Winery has a beautiful outdoor setting, there's a lot to be said for the Lex Opera House as well. Just for comparison, here's the lineup this summer at the Mountain Winery. Keep the music coming. Rob

June 1 - Goo Goo Dolls
June 7 - Crosby, Stills & Nash
June 18 - Imogen Heap
June 26 - Brandi Carlile
June 30 - The Black Crowes
July 1 - The Avett Brothers
July 11 - Yes / Peter Frampton
July 15 - Ziggy Marley
July 22 - Lyle Lovett and His Large Band
July 30 - Squeeze / The English Beat
August 5 - Shawn Colvin / Mary Chapin Carpenter
August 6 - Los Lonely Boys
August 9 - Natalie Merchant
August 18 - Lucinda Williams
August 19 - The Swell Season
August 21 - B.B. King / Buddy Guy
August 22 - John Hiatt & The Combo / Los Lobos
August 23 - Rufus Wainwright
August 24 - Crowded House
August 27-28 - Chris Isaak
September 11 - The Doobie Brothers
September 14-15 - Sheryl Crow
September 22 - Willie Nelson & Family

jcromer

i'd love to see george thorogood at the opera house. he'd be great. but if i could see anyone perform that i wanted i'd choose the eagles. the harmonies they sing would sound AWSOME!! at the opera house. the acoustics are fantastic. in all honesty seeing a show at the opera house is way better than an arena. the sound quality and intimacy of the venue makes the experience way more enjoyable. freedom hall and ruppe arena are great but the opera house is on another level. everyone should see a show there at least once.

Jonathan Newsome

I have seen many artists in my life, but I think the one missing is Joe Satriani. I would be amazed to see such an artist in such an intimate setting. Seeing Joe is gonna be phenomanal as well. Can not wait!

mbeth000

I'm so excited Joe is coming to the Lexington!!!!! It will be a show for those that have never seen him that they will never forget!!! This will be my fifth time seeing him and each time he gets better and better. Once you see him live your a fan for life. I would love to see B.B King or Johnny Lang come to the Opera House.

Susan

I would like to see Daryl Stuermer!

KyBikerBlues

Kelly Richey is the "Lady of the Blues" & would love to see her perform at The Lexington Opera House!!

I'd love to see Ryan Adams come to the Opera House. His music would be perfect for that venue. I've already seen Bob Dylan about 6 times, but that would be a sweet venue for him as well.

Gary Moore

Floweringsoul

Saw Joe years ago at a Blues fest in Michigan and was so annoyed at the people milling about and talking while I was trying to hear this amazing guy on stage! Would love to see him at such an awesome venue as the Opera House! My youngest son loves him as much as I do. Aaron started playing guitar to play like him. He's now in the Army and I miss him terribly! As for other artists I would like to see at the opera house, how about an amazing blues/rock group called DAVY KNOWLES & BACK DOOR SLAM!

Joel Marksbury

How about John Prine?

Tiffany Patrick

I would like to see Brandi Carlile come to The Lexington Opera House!!
