YOUR ALL-ACCESS PASS INCLUDES ADMISSION TO THESE SIX TOP BRANSON ATTRACTIONS…
RETROMANIA in Branson, MO. decides to hold a “cruise on land” music festival in 2024.
Retromania, a local 80’s attraction, has decided to hold a live 5 day music event on August 21st – 25th of 2024. The festival is being called a “cruise on land” because it combines the music event with other entertainment like a cruise ship would. They will be offering excursions; special experiences for their guests like boat rides, zip lining, special access in to theme parks, tour busses and other events. They have made many arrangements for concert goers to get into local attractions, to get discounts on food, and special deals with other shows, making it possible to have a complete vacation. Jim Kelly, the producer of the event, is an 80’s nut, and has dreamed of doing this for years. “I just wanted to bring my love of 80’s music to everyone in the Branson area”, said Kelly. “Going to some other like events are so expensive, when you wrap up some hotels, airfare, customs, the event, and excursions. I wanted this to be affordable for everyone, and they can drive here too”. The event is still finalizing everything it will have to offer but is expecting to announce the lineup soon and put tickets on sale.

Los Angeles based STRANGELOVE-The Depeche Mode Experience delivers a career spanning, pitch perfect “best of” concert that transports the listener through time and touches on several key points in Depeche Mode’s 40+ year career. Songs from throughout the Depeche canon are lovingly recreated; from favorites on DM’s debut Speak and Spell to the newest fare from ‘Mode’s latest- 2017’s “Spirit”. No detail of STRANGELOVE’s presentation has been overlooked. The visual presentation with stage set pieces and in-show costume changes reflect different eras of Depeche Mode’s story.
Truly evocative of a Depeche Mode arena/stadium stage show; the scale of STRANGELOVE’s theatrical stage production is unparalleled, save for the real article. Custom-produced multimedia projection visuals delight the concertgoer’s senses and enhance the illusion that they’re witnessing an actual Depeche Mode concert.
These accomplished musicians have a reverence and devotion to Depeche Mode’s body of work that’s driven them to recreate every possible detail and bring the “Music To The Masses” in a concert setting that transcends a mere tribute production; and feels more like a shared communal fan-club celebration of halcyon days of new wave/emerging electronica. Accuracy and authenticity is a hallmark of the project, with the band employing as many authentic vintage synthesizers and samplers as possible in recreating the classic and widely varied sounds of Depeche Mode’s discography.
With over 120 million records sold and a rabid international fan base, Depeche Mode’s status as elder statesmen of electronica was recently cemented with their induction into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame last year. Their enormous fan base encompasses all ages and crosses every demographic. Their last stadium/arena tour in 2018 set world box office records. STRANGELOVE –The Depeche Mode Experience brings a thoroughly enjoyable and staggeringly authentic DM concert to concertgoers, and connects with international audiences, wherever the group performs.
ZACK WARD
Zack Ward was born in 1970. As a kid, he wanted to act, but his mom, an actress herself, wanted her son to be normal, and would not let him. Finally, his brother intervened, allowing Zack the chance to act. After a year of the small stuff, he got his first big audition for the ’80s classic A Christmas Story (1983). About 300 kids showed up for the part, but he won the role. The director then told him that he was to play the part of Scut Farcus instead of Grover. And the rest is Christmas history. Zack has also acted in movies such as Freddy vs Jason, Postal, Resident Evil: Apocalypse, and Transformers.
