Bryan Adams: Roll with the Punches w/ guest Pat Benatar & Neil Giraldo
About This Event
Bryan Adams brings a decades-spanning catalog and a band‑forward live approach to the Prudential Center for Roll with the Punches, joined by guests Pat Benatar and Neil Giraldo. Benatar and Giraldo contribute their long‑running, guitar‑driven partnership—shaped in arena rock and recognized with Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction in 2022—complementing Adams’s direct songcraft.
About Roll with the Punches
“Roll with the Punches” brings Bryan Adams to the Prudential Center with a set drawn from a decades-long catalog by the Canadian singer-songwriter, whose sales are widely estimated in the 75–100+ million range and who remained a heavy presence on Canadian radio into the 2010s. The bill also includes Pat Benatar with longtime collaborator Neil Giraldo, pairing two strands of late-20th-century rock craft on one stage. Though not an NYC premiere, the night has regional weight for a New York–area audience shaped by arena tours and FM-era songwriting. The clearest throughline is durability: choruses built to hold up under time and repetition.
