Century Casino Edmonton Presents Herman's Hermits and Dr. Hook

Century Casino Edmonton Presents Herman's Hermits and Dr. Hook

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., Dec. 4 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Century Casinos, Inc. (Nasdaq: CNTY; Vienna Stock Exchange) announced today that its Century Casino & Hotel Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, proudly presents Herman's Hermits featuring Peter Noone on December 10, 2008 and Dr. Hook featuring Ray Sawyer on January 30, 2009 live in concert in its exclusive showroom.

Herman's Hermits were a legendary English pop band formed in Manchester, England, in 1964. Their first song in 1964 "I'm Into Something Good" became a hit in England and the USA. 17 hits followed until the official break-up in the end of 1970 including "Mrs. Brown, You've Got a Lovely Daughter", "I'm Henry the Eighth, I Am", "Can't You Hear My Heartbeat", "No Milk Today" and "Dandy". In 1965 they sold more singles worldwide than The Beatles. Ultimately, Herman's Hermits sold over 60 million recordings.

Dr. Hook & The Medicine Show was a US-American pop-country rock band formed in Union City, New Jersey, in 1968. To this day, front man Ray Sawyer is considered Dr. Hook because of the eye patch he wears as the result of a 1967 car accident. Their two best known songs were "Sylvia's Mother" and "Cover of the Rolling Stone", which actually did get the band on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine.

The Century Casino Showroom is one of the best venues for live music and entertainment in Alberta, Canada, featuring a dynamic line-up all over the year.
