LAST CALL FOR JOHNNY LEE

He’s calling it “Hey Bartender, Last Call” and for Johnny Lee it really will be the last call– the last tour for this Country icon who was diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease at the age of 76. Johnny Lee was one of country music’s biggest stars in the early 80’s, amassing five #1 hits, twelve Top 10’s, and was the singer of one of the era’s most iconic songs, “Lookin’ For Love” made famous by the movie Urban Cowboy. The movie was inspired and filmed at the club of Johnny Lee’s good friend, Mickey Gilley, who he toured with often later in life. The two defined the Urban Cowboy era in country music. “The good Lord has given me a wonderful life and the absolute most loyal fans in the world,” Johnny says. “The music and fans have meant everything to me. Over the last couple of years, Parkinson’s has been a pain in the…butt. This is a big announcement and one I am not making easily. So come on out and join us for a night of music and memories as we kick off the ‘Hey Bartender, Last Call: The Farewell Tour.’ This isn’t the end…this is only the right now.” So, check out the dates below and get your tickets right now.
