Accumulating more than 700 performances over the last two decades, including around fifty sold-out performances at the Théâtre Capitole and around a hundred at the Cabaret du Casino de Montréal, Rock Story has established itself in the landscape of musical revues in Quebec.
Since 2004, the show has honored the best of the 1970s and 1980s and this 20th edition will be no exception. On the menu: covers of Queen, Heart, Led Zeppelin, The Eagles, Bon Jovi and AC/DC in this rolling fire of great classics.
Rocker Éric Lapointe received a conditional discharge in 2020 in relation to the charges of assault against a woman against him. Last January, he returned to the events that led to his arrest in an interview he gave to journalist Sophie Durocher.
In this television interview, he detailed his tortuous relationship with alcohol and the trigger that made him want to take control of himself.
The pre-sale of Rock Story and Friends will be offered this Friday to subscribers to the Videotron Center newsletter, starting at noon. On sale to the general public will begin this Saturday at 9 a.m. on gestev.com.
The musical revue will be held on December 5 at the Videotron Center.
