Rod Stewart to rock Vienna next year

By Thomas Hochwarter

Pop legend Rod Stewart is to perform in Austria, it was announced today (Mon).

The veteran crooner will hit the stage at Vienna’s Stadthalle concert hall on 27 June 2010, organisers said, adding that tickets were on sale as of now.

Hits like "Maggie May" or "The First Cut is the Deepest" are unlikely to be left out of the 64-year-old former "Faces" front man.

Other live music highlights next year are the performances of Lebanon-born singer Mika (29 March, Gasometer, Vienna), Whitney Houston (19 May, Stadthalle, Vienna) and U2 (30 August, Ernst Happel Stadium, Vienna).

A 24-7 updated schedule of upcoming concerts can be found at www.britishrock.cc
