Eric Hutchinson takes the stage April 2nd
Rockers Hoobastank are live on April 9th
Todd Rundgren’s Johnson heats things up on April 10th
Skillet makes their Wolf Den debut on April 16th
Bernie Williams rocks the joint on April 24th
The Wolf Den at Mohegan Sun will continue to thrill this Spring, beginning with Eric Hutchinson live on Friday, April 2nd, followed by Hoobastank on Friday, April 9th. Todd Rundgren’s Johnson featuring Kasim Sulton, Prairie Prince and Jesse Gress will liven up the Wolf Den stage on Saturday, April 10th. Skillet will be live on Friday, April 16th and Bernie Williams will take over on Saturday, April 24th. Friday and Saturday Wolf Den shows begin at 8:00pm and Sunday shows are at 7:00pm unless otherwise noted. Admission is free, but all patrons must be 21 or over.
Eric Hutchinson moved to New York last spring and, eager to tour behind Sounds Like This, began putting together a band. With Jimmy Coleman on drums and Tom Craskey on bass, the trio hit the road in January 2008 with OneRepublic and will be touring non-stop as Eric closes in on his goal of playing each of the 50 states (he’s up to 40) and embarks on his first international gigs. And, of course, he will no doubt find inspiration in the inevitable random conversations with total strangers along the way. He’s already writing material for the next record. “I need to be able to road test songs before I feel comfortable putting them on an album,” says Hutchinson, preparing to burn rubber.
Rock band Hoobastank came onto the scene in 2001 with hit singles including “Crawling in the Dark” and “Running Away” off of their self-titled album. They are best known for their 2004 hit “The Reason” which reached #1 on Billboard’s U.S. Alternative and U.S. Adult Albums charts.
Drawing heavily from his forthcoming album Todd Rundgren’s Johnson, a collection of covers of classic Robert Johnson songs (e.g. “Crossroads” and “Love In Vain”), the show will consist of a combination of those and “guitar hero” Todd staples.
Since Skillet last hit the studio for 2006’s breakthrough project Comatose, the group has toured with the likes of Breaking Benjamin, Three Days Grace, Seether and Flyleaf, followed by a solo headlining ranking within Pollstar’s Concert Pulse Top 50 Tours for 2008. Along the way, the Grammy-nominated Alternative outfit also scored three Top 40 singles on Billboard’s Mainstream Rock charts, earned a pair of BMI Songwriting Awards and released its first-ever concert CD/DVD combo pack in support of the season called Comatose Comes Alive.
Critically-acclaimed guitarist/songwriter and famed NY Yankees star Bernie Williams has signed a recording contract with Reform Records for his sophomore album Moving Forward set for release on April 14th. The Puerto Rico native and five-time All-Star is a Classically-trained musician who developed his love for playing guitar alongside baseball, while listening to Salsa, Merengue and 80s Rock. Moving Forward embraces those early influences, while also reflecting a unique mixture of Classical and Jazz guitar topped off with additional Latin rhythms.

Chicago’s roadwork continues behind Chicago XXXII: Stone of Sisyphus, the band’s most recent studio set, which hit shelves in June 2008, fifteen years after Warner Bros. Records refused to release it. The Peter Wolf-produced album peaked at No. 122 on The Billboard 200.
The Doobie Brothers have sold over 30 million albums in the United States from the 1970s to the present. Their most recent studio effort, Sibling Rivalry, was released in 2000. The band was honored in 2004 by being inducted into The Vocal Group Hall of Fame.
Chicago and The Doobie Brothers partnered once before, on a 23-date tour in 2008. As was the case for those shows, the two bands plan to unite for several tunes during their upcoming joint outing. On the ’08 run, the bands joined forces on Chicago’s “Free,” “Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is?” and “25 or 6 to 4,” and The Doobie Brothers’ “Rockin’ Down the Highway” and “Listen to the Music.”

Last summer, the pair launched a brief tour of Australia and New Zealand.

Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons scored nineteen Top 10 hits starting in the 60s including “Sherry,” “Big Girls Don’t Cry” and “Walk Like A Man.” Their distinctive New Jersey-bred sound survived and even flourished in the wake of the “British Invasion” of the mid-60s.

PokerStars.NET AND MOHEGAN SUN GEAR UP FOR NORTH AMERICAN POKER TOUR $25K HIGH ROLLER BOUNTY SHOOTOUT EVENTNAPT Mohegan Sun High Roller event taking place April 12th and 13th.
All eyes will be on Connecticut in April when Mohegan Sun in Uncasville plays host to the third stop of the PokerStars.net North American Poker Tour.
The sixteen-day poker festival will feature some of the best players in the world competing in top-notch events including a $25,600 two-day High Roller Bounty Shootout. Not only will players gain a $5,000 bounty every time they knock out an opponent, but PokerStars.net is adding a seat into the next High Roller Bounty Shootout for the player who collects the most bounties – a prize worth almost $30,000, including accommodations.
The High Roller tournament combines both bounty and shootout formats. Round one on April 12th involves nine tables of nine players, with the first place finisher from each table competing in the winner-takes-all final on April 13th. All the finalists will get $50,000. The remainder (less all the bounties) goes to the overall winner.
Team PokerStars.net Pro Daniel Negreanu said, “I had the opportunity to play in the first High Roller Bounty Shootout at NAPT Venetian in February and I have to say it’s an incredibly exciting format. I am really looking forward to the chance to play again at NAPT Mohegan Sun – and reach the final this time! It’s going to be a great event.”
To give many players an opportunity to play in the High Roller Bounty Shootout event, Mohegan Sun has scheduled a special $5,250 Super-Satellite qualifying tournament at noon on Sunday, April 11th. PokerStars.net is guaranteeing ten (10) $25,600 entries as prizes in this Super-Satellite, with $51,200 (2 entries) added to the prize pool. At least one in-five entrants are guaranteed to win their way through to the High Roller Bounty Shootout event through this Super-Satellite.
The North American Poker Tour is an inaugural event to Mohegan Sun with 37 poker events over 16 days. The tournament will feature the $5,000 buy-in Main Event as well as the $25,600 buy-in Bounty Shootout event, both of which will be produced for a total of four hours for future broadcast on ESPN2 and be hosted by Joanna Krupa of Dancing with the Stars. The Main Event takes place April 7th – 11th and more than 600 players are expected to participate.
Other events include a $300.00 “Ladies only” tournament, a $1,100 buy-in tournament with a $200,000 guaranteed prize pool, as well as other events at a wide assortment of buy-in levels. Among the top players heading to Connecticut are Team PokerStars.net Pros Daniel Negreanu, world champion Joe Cada, Vanessa Rousso and Chad Brown.
The first NAPT was the PokerStars.net Caribbean Adventure in January which was won by Harrison Gimbel from Florida for $2.2 million. Tom Marchese from New Jersey took down the NAPT Venetian Main Event in February for $827,648 and the NAPT Venetian High Roller Bounty Shootout was won by Ashton Griffin from Florida.
Multi-step satellite qualifying tournaments to the NAPT Main Event are currently underway in the Mohegan Sun Poker Room until the start of the tournament.
Both $230.00 “Step 1” satellites and $1,050 “Step 2” satellites are scheduled daily to make participation in the Main Event accessible to players at a wide range of buy-in levels.
Visit mohegansun.com/poker for additional details. One-in-five will advance from the “Step 1” satellites to “Step 2.” One-in-five will advance from “Step 2” to the $5,000 buy-in North American Poker Tour Main Event.
