Tribute acts bring rock legends to life at Casino Rama this summer

CTV News13-05-2025
Casino Rama Resort is turning up the volume this summer with a series of tribute concerts that promises to transport audiences back to the golden era of classic rock.
Fans will be out of their seats and on their feet reliving the thunderous sounds of Led Zeppelin to the soaring vocals of Journey and the psychedelic spectacle of Pink Floyd.
On August 2, the resort will welcome Led Zepagain, a band often hailed as the most authentic Led Zeppelin tribute act in the world. Even Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page has given the group his seal of approval, once calling it the closest to the real deal.
Led Zepagain has been paying homage to the iconic British band for more than 35 years. The performance starts at 8 p.m., with tickets ranging from $30 to $60.
Fans of Journey can catch E5C4P3 ‐ The Journey Tribute on August 8. The band has been performing the hits of Journey for over three decades, with frontman Jason Kelty delivering a not-to-be-missed take on lead singer Steve Perry's vocal style. The show aims to replicate the sights and sounds of Journey's early 80s heyday, offering hits like 'Don't Stop Believin' and 'Open Arms.' Showtime is 9 p.m., with tickets ranging from $20 to $50.
Finally, on September 25, the Australian Pink Floyd Show takes the stage as part of its Wish You Were Here 50th Anniversary Tour. The band has sold more than four million tickets globally and is renowned for its meticulous recreation of Pink Floyd's music and stage production. Tickets for the show start at $40.
Tickets go on sale to the general public Friday at 10 a.m. via Ticketmaster.

‘A little bit more intensity': Ukrainian Co-op art mural receives second refurbishment

WATCH: The artist who spray painted the mural at the Ukrainian Co-op in Regina six years ago is back to add to his creation. Damian Smith has more. It's round two for Jez Brenwold at Regina's Ukrainian Co-op. After spray painting a mural six years ago, Brenwold is now refurbishing all sides of the historic building. 'I wanted to come at it with a little bit more intensity, and a little bit more control over how I want to space things, how I want things to move properly,' he told CTV News on Friday. The artist looks to use this wall to incorporate European and Saskatchewan history. 'I'm also trying to add in a mix of First Nations and within that design, I've found a lot of the Ukrainian ribbons do actually remind me of sun dance dresses, old dresses and stuff that have the same patterns that they use,' he explained. What is typically a hot spot for local meat purchases, workers at the co-op hope this mural can continue to make their shop stand out.

(Damian Smith / CTV News) 'In my first time shopping, I saw this feature and I think it's awesome,' said Alina Sazhenvna, a cashier who started working at the co-op five years ago. 'Visually, the surrounding buildings look very different. This mural shows that people will know that it's made by a Ukrainian designer.' Before the mural was created in April 2019, the wall already had unauthorized graffiti markings sprayed on it. The co-op decided that a mural could cover up the graffiti. For Brenwold, he looks to continue his art in the community but believes that the art form can grow in the Regina area. 'For the general public, a lot of older people still don't like graffiti, but it's all a matter of time,' he said. 'Everybody loves art, everybody loves seeing stuff on their walls. It's only going to be a matter of time before things blow up.' Some notable flowers on the mural include poppies, lilacs, Venus slippers or anything you could see in a garden - or on a hike in Saskatchewan. The mural is expected to be fully complete in a few weeks.
