A few years ago, comedian Dane Cook was a superstar who could sell out arenas. His popularity has since waned, but he continues to tour.

He’s also regularly acted throughout his career and just last year had a role in American Gods, the fantasy drama series based on the popular Neil Gaiman novel.

Hard Rock Live has just announced that Cook will perform at 8 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 18, as part of his Tell It Like It Is tour.

Jeff has been covering the Cleveland music scene for more than 25 years now. On a regular basis, he tries to talk to whatever big acts are coming through town. And if you're in a local band that he needs to hear, email him at jniesel@clevescene.com.
