From the organizer

Panorama delivers a high-energy tribute to The Cars, bringing their iconic synth-rock hits to life with precision and style. After regularly selling out their staple tribute show of The Cars' debut album, Milwaukee music stalwarts Mike Benign, Don Moore, Jack Rodee, Jack Rice and Nick Verban now fully recreate one of the best live performances of The Cars you'll find anywhere, each song given the energy and attitude they deserve. From the massive hits that poured out of teenagers' radios such as "Just What I Needed", "You Might Think" and "Shake It Up" to the album track gems like "Night Spots", "Gimme Some Slack" and "Cruiser", Panorama brings every album to the stage. Doors at 7:00pm. Show at 8:00pm. Full bar service will be available throughout the show, with the kitchen being open 4-close. All guests under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian and supervised at all times while inside the building. Failure to provide proper supervision may result in removal from the premises. We appreciate your cooperation in helping us maintain a safe and enjoyable environment for all guests. 🎟️ Note: $1 from every ticket sold goes to a fund benefiting local artist mental health & wellbeing. Please note that all ticket purchases are final and nonrefundable.
