Michael Bolton Does a Valentine's Day Show at The Ridgefield Playhouse

When New Haven native Michael Bolton started out in music in the mid-1970s, he was a hard rock singer. His band Blackjack even toured with Ozzy Osbourne. But then he co-wrote "How Am I Supposed to Live Without You" with Laura Brannigan in 1983 and a window was opened to the adult contemporary universe that hasn't closed since. He'll be at the Ridgefield Playhouse Thursday night, which happens to be Valentine's Day, to sing his tribute to what it's like when a man loves a woman, and to ask the question "how can we be lovers when we can't be friends?".
