LAS VEGAS BASED MELODIC ROCK POWERHOUSE
WILL PERFORM MONDAY, MARCH 29 AT THE
FREMONT STREET EXPERIENCE WELCOME HOME PARTY
FOR COMBAT TROOPS RETURNING FROM AFGHANISTAN

***

Earlier In The Day, TOF Front man Beau Hodges Will Sing
The National Anthem At An Official National Guard
Welcome Home Ceremony At The Mandalay Bay Events Center

In what is shaping up to be an incredible spring for Theory of Flight, the Las Vegas melodic rock powerhouse has upcoming shows at South By Southwest (SXSW), a single (“Set The Night On Fire”) receiving airplay across the country and a debut album Within Reach scheduled for release April 20.

On March 29, they can add “entertaining the troops” to this exciting agenda!

TOF will be performing at Downtown Las Vegas’ Fremont Street Experience as part of “Rock For Freedom,” a public welcome home party for Nevada troops returning from Afghanistan.

The band’s 7 p.m. set is part of an all-night (6 p.m.-Midnight) celebration welcoming all 456 members of the 122-1 Cavalry with the Nevada Army National Guard who deployed a year ago. This was the largest deployment of Nevada troops to combat since World War II.

While miraculously, none of the troops were killed in combat, a handful of the soldiers—affectionately known as the “Wounded Warriors”—will be flown in from Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C. to be part of the festivities. They will then return to continue their post-combat treatment.

Theory of Flight’s participation in this year’s “Rock For Freedom” brings them full circle; last year, the band organized a “Rock For Freedom” concert at Red Rock Harley Davidson to bid these same troops farewell.

At 11 a.m. the morning of March 29, TOF lead singer Beau Hodges will have the honor of singing our National Anthem at an official National Guard Welcome Home ceremony at the Mandalay Bay Events Center at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino.

TOF recently secured a sponsorship deal with Sennheiser Microphones. The band will be performing at numerous events at SXSW, including the “Sennheiser Presents Rooftop Industry Mixer at Speakeasy” on 4th Street in downtown Austin March 18.

Theory of Flight was formed in 2007 by frontman Beau Hodges, lead guitarist Vince Casas and bassist Joey McMahon. The band’s lineup also includes Tyler Williams (drums) and Stephen Goodrum (rhythm guitar).
