THE OFFICIAL BLUES BROTHERS REVUE!

Paramount Anniversary Series Show — The official Blues Brothers Revue is this Saturday, March 10th at 7:30pm — Sponsored by WCYB and Tennessee Arts Commission. It seems like only yesterday that brothers Jake and Elwood Blues, played by Dan Ackroyd and John Belushi, invited the world to join them on their misadventures while trying to save their Catholic orphanage from the tax man. The Official Blues Brothers Revue takes up where the original classic cult movie ended with the trademark passion and precision of the original Blues Brothers. The show strikes the balance of humor, comedy and mayhem, and pays tribute to Chicago’s rich history of blues, R&B, and traditional soul music. This is the only Blues Brothers Revue show to be sanctioned by Dan Ackroyd and wife of the late John Belushi, Judith Belushi Pisano. Tickets $ 36 Adult, $32 Seniors, $28 Groups of 8 or more. Call the Paramount for ticket information 423-274-8920.
