Concert Review and Setlist: America and Christopher Cross at the American Music Theatre 7/27/14 |

by: JoeS - Springfield, PA started: 07/30/14 1:13 pm | updated: 07/30/14 4:49 pm |

Classic Rock at its best is the way I'd describe the Christopher Cross and America concert at The American Music Theater on Sunday, July 26th. The 1600 seat theater has fine acoustics and advanced video imaging and lighting. It appeared to be a sell out. The audience was varied tending to be more of the flower child generation. If you go to The America Music Theater, park either across the street in the mall parking lot or in the lot next to the theater complex. The main lot is congested... Read More |

The mother of one of the accused carjackers charged with murdering three children by running them over in a stolen SUV last week was offered the $110,000 reward but turned it down. Police credit 19-year-old Jonathan Rosa's mother with cracking the case and ultimately helping them bring in both suspects. Police initially questioned Rosa on Saturday because they found his cell phone at the scene. He said it had been stolen and since he didn't have a record they let him go. His mother,... Read More |
