New York, NY (Top40 Charts) VNUE, Inc., announced today that it is again working with international superstar and multiple Grammy-winner
Rob Thomas to record his 10th anniversary Borgata show supporting his and his wife Marisol's charity Sidewalk Angels Foundation in January. Additionally, the SOLD OUT show will be livestreamed on VNUE's StageIt platform (www.stageit.com). The show is set for January 15, 2023.
The company is also offering limited edition double CD sets of the live performance through its exclusive license agreement with DiscLive (disclive.net), the pioneer in "instant live" recording, which will be available to order and will be shipped to fans. Also available will be very special collectors laminates with scratch-off codes for downloading the digital audio on VNUE's set.fm.
This special one-time only show features
Thomas and "special guests" who are as yet unnamed, so this is set to be a very special performance indeed. For the first time ever from any of Rob's prior Borgata performances, this show will be livestreamed so those that were unable to buy tickets will still be able to attend the event virtually.
"As a rescue owner myself, and with many dog lovers on staff at VNUE, we really enjoy working with Rob and Mari and this wonderful charity," Zach Bair, CEO of VNUE and "instant music" pioneer DiscLive, said. "This year, we are excited to again be working with Rob, and to extend this opportunity by offering fans a chance to see the sold show via StageIt, as well as our limited-edition laminates which will allow fans to download the audio via our set.fm platform, and limited-edition double CD sets."

Thomas and his wife Marisol in 2003, has raised more than $1 million and has helped groups such as Pets Alive, The Sato Project, Bully Breed Rescue, Equine Animal Rescue, The Animal House in
Jamaica and the Tunica
Humane Society.
