Candlebox to play the Showbox

By weeklyvolcano on July 24, 2006

Notorious for not playing gigs around Seattle in the early '90s yet tagged with the "Seattle band" label after Madonna's Maverick label picked them up, Candlebox will take to the stage for the first time in nearly 10 years with a show at the Showbox Sept. 28.  The original lineup â€" Peter Klett, Bardi Martin, Scott Mercado and Kevin Martin â€" have reunited and are embarking on a three-month tour of the United States. Tickets are $25 and go on sale Friday, July 28, 10 a.m. at TicketsWest outlets, House of Blues, all TicketsWest outlets, including Rudy’s Barbershops and select QFC Food Centers, or charge by phone at (800) 992-TIXX [8499]. â€" Brad Allen
