Two bands who helped reshape the boundaries of rock music in the late eighties and early nineties are reuniting their sounds under one roof — Extreme and Living Colour will perform together at Mystic Lake Casino in Prior Lake, Minnesota on September 22nd as part of their 'Thicker Than Blood' tour. Their pairing speaks to something enduring about that era's restless creative energy: one band stripped rock to its emotional core with acoustic vulnerability, the other exploded its walls by weaving in jazz, punk, and hip hop. Decades after their commercial peaks, both acts continue to find new ears
