Illinois Rock & Roll Museum Hall of Fame Induction
We are pleased to announce that Head East will be inducted into the Illinois Rock & Roll Museum Hall of Fame Class of 2025 on September 14, 2025 at the Rialto Square Theatre in Joliet, Illinois. Last year’s event was canceled due to a prolonged closure of the Rialto Square Theatre resulting in the induction ceremonies for the Classes of 2024 and 2025 being combined into one big event this year.
Class of 2025 inductees in the Artist/Performer category include Head East and Enuff Z’Nuff. Tim Drummond – the late former bassist for Neil Young and Bob Dylan will be inducted as a Songwriter. Delmark – the oldest continuously operated jazz and blues independent record label in the United States will be inducted in the Record Label category. The legendary Mitch Michaels enters the Hall of Fame in the Radio Personality category and Chicago's Q101 in the Radio Station category.
The induction ceremony will include live performances by both Head East and Enuff Z’Nuff along with other selected acts from the classes of 2024 and 2025. If you are planning on attending this event on September 14th you may want to buy your tickets soon. Since the Class of 2024 induction ceremony was rescheduled and is being combined with the Class of 2025 induction ceremony, tickets previously sold for the originally scheduled Class of 2024 ceremony are being honored on September 14th. So many of the tickets for the new combined event have already been sold. Tickets are now on sale online through the Rialto Square Theatre Website.
