Eight Gigs: Clint Black
Wed., Apr. 27, 8 p.m., Bob Hope Theatre, $35-$75
Fifty-four-year-old Clint Black has been putting out records since 1989. The multi-instrumentalist modeled his early career after greats like the late Merle Haggard and George Jones, and while many know him as the husband of actress Lisa Hartman (the couple married quietly in 1991) and for succumbing to label demands when commercial country was king, he returned in 2004 with his own label, appropriately dubbed Equity Music Group, and reclaimed his rightful place on the throne. Don’t miss this chance to see a country great who never really went away. 242 East Main Street in Stockton, www.clintblack.com.
