The IW Observer and Jack Up Events have teamed up to give away a pair of tickets for this year’s A Night of a Thousand Freddies on Saturday, March 7, at Shanklin Theatre.
Returning by popular demand for the fifth year running, The Bohemians’ high energy show has earned them the reputation of the world’s most exciting Queen tribute act. Their special extended set featuring full staging, lighting, backdrops and pyrotechnics combines the showmanship, musicianship, costumes and magnificence of Queen.
The internationally renowned tribute band have played on the same bill as legendary Queen guitarist, Brian May. Right from the beginning you will be gripped by an authentic audio-visual representation of Queen’s iconic Wembley ’86 performances as the Bohemians burst onto the stage to One Vision and A Kind of Magic.
The band promises to take you on an electrifying high-energy roller-coaster ride of a concert. Whether it’s I Want It All, Hammer To Fall, Crazy Little Thing Called Love, The Show Must Go On, Bohemian Rhapsody, We Will Rock You or We Are the Champions, prepare for a rousing rendition of the back catalogue of one of the world’s most popular and iconic bands of all time.
