For one night only, a legendary band is reuniting. You pick the songs they play—the massive hits, obscure b-sides, and corporate sell-outs. Along the way, they’ll share the stories behind the songs and the untold history of the band’s epic rise and fall. Also…this band doesn’t exist. And all of this is made up.
