Untold stories of the 'British Invasion'
 | | Pete Bennett with George Harrison and Ringo Starr

| For fans who weren't around yet, or who want to revisit a definitive chapter in rock history, an insider's look at the music scene during the heyday of the Beatles and the Rolling Stones - with a tour guide who helped define that era - is yours for the price of a ticket to "Behind the Scenes with Pete Bennett."
Scheduled for June 30 at 8 p.m. at the Count Basie Theatre, "Behind the Scenes" is a look back at the music business hosted by the man who was promotional manager for the groups that led the British Invasion.
Joining Bennett live onstage will be Spencer Davis of the Spencer Davis Group ("Gimme Some Loving"); Denny Laine of the Moody Blues ("Go Now") and Terry Sylvester of The Hollies ("The Air That I Breathe") to tell their untold stories using words, sound clips and vintage video footage.
Presented by the Count Basie Theatre Foundation to benefit the Count Basie Theatre, Gold Circle tickets include a pre-concert reception and exhibit of original British Invasion-era photography and a post-concert reception and meet-and-greet with the artists.
Tickets are $75-$25 and can be purchased online at www.countbasietheatre.org or by calling the box office at (732) 842-9000.
