Orpheum Theatre
It started as a concert, it became a celebration! That's the slogan on the poster for the first Last Waltz live event that was later made into a documentary directed by Martin Scorsese. The original event featured "The Band" and the likes of Eric Clapton, Ringo Starr, Bob Dylan, and Neil Diamond, amongst other absolute legends. Those are the humble beginnings of "Life is a Carnival: The Last Waltz" the event that's coming to the Orpheum Theatre in Omaha, Nebraska. The 2024 tour version of the epic show that hit San Francisco in 1976 has Ryan Bingham, Jamey Johnson, and a controversial reunion as the main cards to make people want to come to this particular show.
It's a music fest like you've probably never seen before, with contemporary performers paying homage to the legends of the past. At the same time, it brings modern tunes that are going to light up your night if you want to be a part of this hit-that-get-tickets button today.
Life is a Carnival: The Last Waltz is really rolling out the red carpet this year, bringing along Yellowstone and country music star Ryan Bingham to essentially headline the tour. It's a cover show in the sense that some of these top performances are going to be singing tracks that you wouldn't normally hear them play in their regular concerts. Most of the music comes from the legends "The Band." This year, as mentioned, a star like Jamey Johnson is back! He's been the lifeblood of the tour over the past few years. You could argue, though, that Life is a Carnival: The Last Waltz is coming in with a lot more star power in 2024 when compared to previous seasons.
That's not just because Ryan Bingham is on board. In fact, his presence has been overshadowed by the reunion between Mike Campbell & Benmont Tench, both formerly of Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers. The way they parted ways from the band made it seem like a reunion wasn't going to be in the cards any time soon. Rolling Stone Magazine even ran a feature story on this anticipated get-together. This show at Orpheum Theater in Omaha is going to take place just ten days after the tour's opening stop. However, there are a few concerts in between. What are the odds that this duo is still going to arrive in Nebraska on good terms?
Apart from some of these off-stage rumors, this promises to be one of the best shows that's coming around to Omaha in 2024 by a wide margin. Again, the line-up is not only extensive but star-stuffed in a way that we hadn't seen in years past. Where you're going to be sitting at the Orpheum Theatre is going to be vital to get the most out of this night. You want to be really careful when picking seats at the Orpheum Theatre. Regardless of the area that you're in, you'll likely want to sit near the middle. If you don't do your homework, you may end up with a side view of the stage because the seats sell only by section, so make sure to see where your row is before you make the purchase.
