GREENWOOD VILLAGE, Colo. — You can dance if you want to this summer at Fiddler's Green Amphitheatre because the Totally Tubular Festival is making a stop.
Artists that helped define the New Wave era of the early-to-mid 1980s are launching a 17-date tour that will be at Fiddler's Green on Saturday, July 6.
The lineup is Thomas Dolby, Thompson Twins' Tom Bailey, Modern English, Men Without Hats, The Romantics, Bow Wow Wow, Tommy Tutone, and The Plimsouls.
Many of these acts became well-known for their appearances on MTV and on popular movie soundtracks like "Sixteen Candles," which featured "If You Were Here" by the Thompson Twins.
Songs deemed "one-hit" wonders like "I Melt With You" by Modern English and "867-5309/Jenny" by Tommy Tutone are still recognizable today. There was even a Christmas version of Tommy Tutone's hit released in 2005 called "Santa Jenny 867-5309."
Tickets go on sale to the general public Friday, Jan. 12 at 10 a.m. They can be found at AXS.com. Prices range from $50.50 to $130.50. A portion of the proceeds will go toward local food banks for each city stop.
