The legendary Steve Miller is still going strong at age 78. He plays a sold out show at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino tomorrow night. Tickets on the reseller sites start around $250 so it’s a tough ticket to get. Curious if he’ll be doing your favorite songs? Here’s the set list he’s stuck to pretty closely over the past few months on this tour.
Steve kicks off the show celebrating his roots in blues. He worked with blues legends like Muddy Waters and Buddy Guy in Chicago back in the 60s.
The band’s iconic hit that got to #2 in 1976.
A deeper cut from Book of Dreams in 1977.
Definitely the most polarizing song among the fan base. Pop music fans love it. Others… not so much. Comedian Jim Gaffigan cracked me up with his take.
One of the first songs that put the Steve Miller Band on the map in 1968.
Another 60s gem from “Brave New World.”
This one got remastered 5 years ago for “Ultimate Hits.”
YouTube user nailed it when he said about this song, “The words mean less then the music and the moment when you heard it.”
If you keep on dancin’ you’ll never grow old. At 78, Steve’s proving this one right.
This would be the last hit from “Book Of Dreams” in 1977. It was featured decades later on The Sopranos and was said to inspire Ozzy Osbourne’s “Crazy Train.”
Another one you’ll find remastered on Ultimate Hits.
This one was originally written for Dave Mason. But Miller liked it and they knocked the song out in 30 minutes.
Is there any more appropriate song to rock out at at the casino?
The band’s second #1 hit.
No, he didn’t forget. Expect this one for the encore.
Any other songs you were hoping to see on the setlist? Leave me a tweet @GenoRadio. Check out more concerts coming to the Tampa area this year.
