Aaron Carter Plays Crocodile Rock Cafe


You may know him from growing up on his catchy tunes, such as "I Want Candy" or you may know him as Matt from the hit off-Broadway show "The Fantasticks", but tonight you will know him as Aaron Carter, performer, entertainer, and definitely all grown up.

Carter is making the journey from New York City, where he is currently starring in The Fantasticks off-Broadway to Allentown, PA where he will be putting on a live concert at the popular Crocodile Rock Cafe. Tickets are only $20, and best yet... it's ALL ages. So even if you aren't quite old enough to stay out late on a school night you can still enjoy the festivities. Doors open at 5:30 pm with Carter hitting the stage at eight.

According to Crocodile Rock's website, special guests will include Dalia Rae, FM Waves, Fight From the Kid, and Talinday. Carter also offered a VIP experience to meet up with him after his show and get a little one on one time (who wouldn't want that?). VIP tickets are not available at the door, so let's hope you got yours!

Carter has been fighting his way to the top of the entertainment industry over this past year and making quite the mark. Even with tragedy in his path with the death of his beloved sister, Leslie Carter, 25, back at the end of January, Carter has overcome the odds and is showing the world he is not just a child star, but an overall entertainer who is willing to work hard for what he wants. We are sure his sister would be proud, just as the fans are.

We are patiently awaiting the release of an album as he has tweeted occasionally about being in the studio working on his music. Until then, check him out tonight at Crocodile Rock Cafe in Allentown, PA or swing on up to New York City and check him out in The Fantasticks.
