Pat Benatar: she’s always been a rule-breaker and a trail-blazer, she remains a bold and distinctive artist both on stage and on record, and now, after more than three decades in rock ‘n’ roll, she’s a bonafideliving legend.

A four-time Grammy winner, Benatar is a classically trained mezzo-soprano. During the 1980s, Benatarhad two RIAA-certified Multi-Platinum albums, five RIAA-certified Platinum albums, three RIAA-certified Gold albums and 19 Top 40 singles, including the Top 10 hits, “Hit Me With Your Best Shot”, “Love Is a Battlefield”, “We Belong” and “Invincible”. During the early days of MTV Benatar was one of the most heavily played artists on the popular music channel. Her hits continue to be as unforgettable now as they were at the dawn of MTV, when Pat emerged, fearless, fighting and forging a path for other female rock stars around the world.

Neil Giraldo
Neil “Spyder“ James Giraldo, has been a professional musician, producer, arranger and songwriter for over four decades now, changing the face of the pop charts throughout the 1980s with his collaborator, muse and wife, Pat Benatar. More than just an explosive steel bending guitar player, Giraldo’s innovative vision helped him create the signature Benatar sound, from its inception.

His impressive back catalog includes more than 100 songs written, produced, arranged and recorded for Benatar, as well as many hits he helped create for John Waite, Rick Springfield (Number One, Grammy-winning classic “Jessie’s Girl” and Top Ten hit “I’ve Done Everything For You” included), Kenny Loggins (Top Twenty hit “Don’t Fight It” – also Grammy-nominated), Steve Forbert, The Del Lords, Beth Hart and countless others.

  2. Amanda Pants on July 31, 2024 at 4:38 pm

    OMG PAT BENATAR!!! I wanna go!!!

  3. Michael on July 31, 2024 at 4:49 pm

    I want to take my wife and relive the 80s when we were in high school and Pat Benatar ruled the radio airwaves and MTV. Fingers crossed that I win these tickets.

  4. Glenn on July 31, 2024 at 10:17 pm

    Yes!!! Grew up in Portland and listened to this awesome rocker on KGON. Never seen her perform live. Yes, please!!!

    • Michael Pendlebury on August 1, 2024 at 4:30 pm

      I’ve got quite a few friends going to this concert so I would love to go and hang out with them and listen to some great music! Pat’s record “Wide awake in Dreamland” is one of my all-time favorite albums and looking at her recent set lists there is a very good chance that she will play “All fired up” from it. I also never get tired of hearing “Love is a battlefield”, “We Belong” and “We live for love”. She’s an absolute legend – and Neil Giraldo is no slouch either!

    Tickets are a Battlefield. We belong at the show. It’ll be a heartbreaker if I am not chosen.

    All I can say is “Hit me with your Best Shot!’ Seriously though, Pat takes me back to the days of “The Legend of Billie Jean,” how nostalgic. What a great line-up!

  34. Carla Josh on August 7, 2024 at 6:14 am

    It has been a great many years since I’ve had the opportunity to see Pat Benatar. I love her energy! I also could use a great evening out with a girlfriend and a musical “take me back” to the days of less responsibility moment ❤️
