Three Dog Night reschedules Admiral concert

Three Dog Night will play at the Admiral Theatre on March 25, the venue announced this morning.

The venerable band’s concert scheduled for next Friday, Oct. 2 at the Admiral had to be postponed after co-frontman and co-founder Cory Wells (at left in the photo, with [from second left] Paul Kingery, Michael Allsup, Danny Hutton and Pat Bautz) suffered back problems that required treatment and rest.0925_KSFE_3DogNight

The Admiral said that tickets for the Oct. 2 concert will be honored on March 25. Ticketholders who are unable to attend on that date should contact the box office at 360-373-6743 for a full refund. The Oct. 2 concert was a sell-out.

The band initially cancelled a date on Labor Day weekend, allowing Wells to receive medical attention. Further action has been deemed necessary by Wells’ doctors, however.

“Of course we are really disappointed about postponing these dates, but Cory’s physician has made this decision and the rest of us want to make sure Cory can get on top of this and have time to completely recover,” the band’s other co-frontman and co-founder, Danny Hutton, is quoted in the release. “That’s the best way to ensure we can resume touring and get back out there with our fans.”

Three Dog Night kick off Admiral’s 2015-16 season

Three Dog Night, who put the capper on the Admiral Theatre‘s 2012-13 season, will kick off the 2015-16 schedule, according to information from the theater.

The 1960s-’70s hitmakers played to a sold-out Admiral throng on June 8, 2013. They’re back for an 8 p.m. show on Oct. 2, the first of 28 shows announced by the Admiral in their upcoming subscription season. Season-ticket sales begin July 7, with “half-season” ducats up for grabs on July 21. Also on July 21, single-show tickets are available for pu0703_KSFE_3DogNightrchase by Admiral Theatre Club members and sponsors. The general public can pick over single-show tickets starting on Aug. 4.

Three Dog Night is fronted by original vocalists Cory Wells and Danny Hutton, and also boast original guitarist Mike Allsup. Original keyboardist Jimmy Greenspoon, who was with them for two previous Kitsap shows in recent years, died of cancer in March.

The band headlined the Kitsap County Fair and Stampede in 2008.

Admiral confirms a Three Dog Night for next spring

The Admiral Theatre has inked over a couple of penciled-in additions to their 2012-13 subscription season, both of which were tentatively announced a couple of weeks ago: Three Dog Night and Wilson Phillips.

Three Dog Night, one of the biggest hit-making bands of the 1970s, will appear in early June. The band, with two of its original three-vocalist lineup (Danny Hutton and Cory Wells) leading the way, headlined the Kitsap County Fair and Stampede several years ago (when the fair experimented for a few years with bigger-name attractions, including TDN, Grand Funk and Eddie Money), and tore the joint up.

Wilson Phillips were pop darlings in the 1990s, the daughters of music icons Brian Wilson (the Beach Boys) and John and Michelle Phillips (the Mamas and the Papas).

Tickets for the 2012-13 season go on sale July 2. More information is available from the Admiral, 360-373-6743, admiraltheatre.org.
