DON FELDER with special guests: Lady Luck
2025-08-17 14:00 - 18:59
The Lincoln Square Theater is pleased to welcome iconic lead guitar player and vocalist, DON FELDER, formerly of the Eagles, with special guests from Decatur, IL. Lady Luck on Sunday August 17th, 2025.

For questions call: 217-454-4583

No matter how you look at it, 2024 is shaping up to be the Year of the Fingers — Don “Fingers”
Felder, that is. Felder, a true American rock and roll guitar hero, is very much looking forward to
building upon his rich legacy as one of the most innovative riff-generating songwriters of the
modern rock era while continuing his growth as a featured touring and recording solo artist.
To that end, Felder finds himself most decidedly back in the driver’s seat with the release of his
first solo album in seven years, American Rock ’N’ Roll (BMG). American Rock ’N’ Roll consists
of 11 high-energy rockers mixed with touching, thoughtful ballads. ARnR also boasts a who’s
who of A-list guest contributors including Slash, Sammy Hagar, Peter Frampton, Mick
Fleetwood, Joe Satriani, Orianthi, Richie Sambora, Alex Lifeson, and many, many more.
Not only is Felder a proud, longstanding member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, having
been inducted with the Eagles back in 1998, he was also inaugurated into the Musicians Hall of
Fame and Museum in Nashville in 2016 and the Florida Artists Hall of Fame in 2017. Fact is,
Felder spent 27 years with the Eagles, who own the fine distinction of recording the top-selling
album of all time — Their Greatest Hits (1971-1975), which has sold over 38 million copies (and
counting). “I’m blessed enough to have contributed to and been a part of a very talented mixture
of voices, writing, guitar parts, and production. I’m very proud of that,” he says of the group.
Don left the band in 2001 and has since forged an impressive career as a top-tier solo artist with
a three fully realized full-length albums as well and several very successful singles for film
scores like Heavy Metal, 1983’s sonically soaring Airborne and 2012’s multifaceted song-cycle
treatise, Road to Forever and American Rock ‘N’ Roll. Felder added “best-selling author” to his
impressive C.V. when his spellbinding 2008 memoir, Heaven and Hell: My Life in the Eagles
(1974-2001), became an instant New York Times smash bestseller.

Felder navigated the burgeoning rock scene in his native Gainesville, Florida, in the 1960s,
which included a stint teaching guitar to Tom Petty and learning slide guitar from his longtime
friend Duane Allman. His matchless lead-guitar tone added extra fuel to Eagles tracks like
“Already Gone,” “One of These Nights,” “Take It to the Limit,” and “New Kid in Town,” in addition
to having co-written “Victim of Love,” “Those Shoes,” and his most popular co-creation, “Hotel
California.” Felder has also recorded with and performed alongside top-drawer artists such as
The Bee Gees, Michael Jackson, Alice Cooper, Warren Zevon, Barbra Streisand, Elton John,
Joni Mitchell, and Stephen Stills, whom Don first crossed paths in his first band, The
Continentals in Gainesville in the early 1960s.

Spending more and more time on the road as the frontman of his own tight-knit solo band made
Felder realize he needed to put in the time to hone his own distinctive voice into a finely tuned
instrument. “That’s just how I work,” Don explains. “A lead vocal has to fit the song — it has to fit
the timbre and texture of the song.

Billy Bob Thornton & The Boxmasters w/special guests: Fran Moran & The Nervous Wrecks Presented by Airking Inc. HVAC of Illinois
2025-08-27 02:00 - 18:59
The Boxmasters release “‘Pepper Tree Hill” Album and
“2025 Pepper Tree Hill Tour” Dates
In conjunction with the release of their newest album on July 11th, “Pepper Tree Hill”,
The Boxmasters will follow by kicking off a tour of the United States in August. This marks
their 19th release as the ever-prolific J.D. Andrew and Bud Thornton showcase their love as
always for the sounds of the sixties and the inspiration of their studio on an album called “Pepper
Tree Hill.”
“Abbey Road was the studio the Beatles recorded their album “Abbey Road” in and are a
huge influence on us,” says Bud. “In a way , since our studio is called Pepper Tree Hill , you
could say this is our Abbey Road and you can hear odes to our influences the British Invasion
including the Beatles, Badfinger, The Kinks etc.”
Joining The Boxmasters on the title cut “Pepper Tree Hill” is the legendary trumpeter and
bandleader Herb Alpert. “I talked to Herb on the phone and he asked what we were up to and
told him we were recording a new album and he said to send him a song. He sent it back right
away with an immediately recognizable part that you instantly know is Herb Alpert.” Says Bud.
Also joining on the song “Pepper Tree Hill” is longtime collaborator and Boxmaster alum
Brad Davis. “Brad was out at the studio while we were working on another album with him and
we thought that “Pepper Tree Hill” would be a great song to have him play guitar on and of
course he played an amazing part.” Says J.D.
Aside from the song “Pepper Tree Hill”, the rest of the album contains all of the familiar
sounds of the sixties that The Boxmasters are fond of.
The “2025 Pepper Tree Hill Tour” starts in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina on August 20th
and ends in Los Angeles on October 19th. Some familiar stops like in Kansas City at
Knuckleheads, and Tomball, TX at Main Street Crossing are joined by 5 nights at the Bourbon
and Bonfire weekends in Livingston, Montana.
Formed in 2006, The Boxmasters have recorded an impressive and diverse catalogue of
music that touches on their love of a wide array of influences, but most importantly, the rock and
roll of the 1960’s. Listening to The Boxmasters, one can hear obvious odes to the Beatles, Byrds
and Beach Boys, but also important to The Boxmasters are The Mothers of Invention, The
Allman Brothers, Kris Kristofferson, John Prine and Big Star.
As a touring band, The Boxmasters have cultivated a rabid cult fanbase across the United
States, Canada and now Europe and the United Kingdom. Opening for the likes of ZZ Top,
Steve Miller, George Thorogood and Bubbles and The Sh*t Rockers, The Boxmasters have
proven to win over large audiences. As a headliner, frequent stops in Kansas City at
“Knuckleheads”, Los Angeles at “The Troubadour” and in Sellersville, PA at the “Sellersville
Theater” have shown dedicated yet still growing audiences. Two appearances at Levon Helm’s
“Midnight Ramble” in Woodstock, New York were highlight performances for the band, as well
as the “Ramble at The Ryman” that Levon hosted in 2008. Other highlights include The
Boxmasters performing on “The Grand Ole Opry” in 2015, and in 2023 The Boxmasters fulfilled
a life-long dream of playing The Cavern Club in Liverpool. Special guests will be: Fran Moran & The Nervous Wrecks. For more information call: 217-454-4583

JEFFERSON STARSHIP 50th Anniversary, Runaway Again Tour w/special guests: C4.2
2025-09-18 13:00 - 17:00
The Historic Lincoln Square Theater is pleased to welcome the legendary ‘JEFFERSON STARSHIP’ for their 50th Anniversary, Runaway Again Tour on Thursday September 18th, 2025, with special guests: ‘C4.2’
Jefferson Starship is one of the most successful arena rock bands of the ’70s and ’80s, earning 3 platinum and 8 gold records, as well as numerous Top 40 Billboard singles. As they celebrate their 50th anniversary, the band reaches a rare milestone that only a few bands ever achieve. Founded by Paul Kantner in the ’70s, Jefferson Starship was conceived as a collective of musical adventurers contributing to his epic concept albums and eventual catalog of rock classics. When the current lineup came together in 2012, with many members having joined years earlier, Kantner couldn’t have predicted the band would become the road-conquering force they are today.
The five members of Jefferson Starship often describe themselves as both a “family” and a “gang,” and this sense of camaraderie shines through in their performances. Over the years, they’ve played in all 50 U.S. states, five continents, and countless countries. A recent tour of New Zealand was noted as one of the band’s favorites, and their live shows continue to offer a non-stop mix of rock hits.
The band’s current lineup includes original member David Freiberg, drummer Donny Baldwin (who first joined in 1982), keyboardist Chris Smith (who joined in 1998), guitarist Jude Gold (who joined in 2012), and singer/guitarist Cathy Richardson (who joined in 2008 after Kantner saw her perform with Big Brother and the Holding Company).
As Jefferson Starship celebrates its 50th anniversary, the band reflects on the legacy of Paul Kantner, who passed away in 2016. The spirit of exploration and adventure he instilled in the band lives on in their music and performances. As Gold puts it, “To me, that ‘Paul Kantner thing’—getting on a rocket ship and blasting off into the unknown—is the very essence of Jefferson Starship. And that spirit is very much alive in the band today.”

The Ultimate Doors - Tribute to Jim Morrison & the Doors
2025-11-15 18:00 - 21:00
The Historic Lincoln Square Theater is super excited to welcome back ‘The Ultimate Doors’ on Saturday November 15th, 2025 due to the overwhelming popularity and attention to detail of this performance! “Love Me Two Times”
The Ultimate Doors was formed with the intention of preserving The Doors’ music and performances as well as bringing an authentic experience to the old and the new generations of Doors fans.
With great attention to detail, The Ultimate Doors provide their audiences with an authentic looking and sounding tribute to Jim Morrison & The Doors. Every piece of equipment on stage is exactly what The Doors used in the 1960s from the instruments and amps to the clothing and microphones. The Ultimate Doors leaves no stone unturned in bringing an authentic Doors tribute show to the stage.
The four musicians within the Ultimate Doors who take on the roles of Jim Morrison, Ray Manzarek, Robby Krieger and John Densmore do not take the job of portraying their idols lightly. They bring a professional, high-energy, authentic production to the stage night after night in order to transport their audiences back to the late 1960s.
With Jim Morrison gone at the young age of just 27 years old, you will have the opportunity to experience what it would have been like at a Doors concert. THIS IS A MUST SEE SHOW!!!
Doors will open at 6:00 pm with show starting at 7:00 pm (cst).
