About
Howard Jones: Things Can Only Get Better Tour brings a multi-act ’80s pop and rock bill to Stir Concert Cove-Harrah's Council Bluffs Casino & Hotel, a Council Bluffs venue that serves the Omaha concert market. The show is headlined and curated by Howard Jones, with Wang Chung, The English Beat and Modern English on the bill and SiriusXM’s Richard Blade hosting.
Who's playing
Howard Jones leads the Things Can Only Get Better Tour, joined by fellow British ’80s acts Wang Chung, The English Beat and Modern English. Richard Blade, known to many listeners through SiriusXM and his long association with modern-rock radio, is listed as host.
What to expect
The tour is built as a full-evening package of pop, rock, new wave and ska-influenced favorites rather than a single-headliner concert with a local opener. Public tour materials describe the participating bands as performing full sets, with Jones framing the show around familiar pop anthems and the hopeful message behind the tour name.
Why go
For Omaha-area fans of ’80s radio staples, this Stir Concert Cove stop gathers several recognizable names from the era on one bill. It is a chance to see Howard Jones alongside Wang Chung, The English Beat and Modern English in an outdoor casino concert setting just across the river from Omaha.
