Glen Campbell is at the Uptown tonight

Country legend Glen Campbell announced last year that he had been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease. Rather than taking a bow, he followed up that news with a new album, Ghost on the Canvas, which includes collaborations with ’90s rock icons Chris Isaak, Paul Westerberg, Jakob Dylan and Robert Pollard. Somewhat incredibly, he decided to embark on a goodbye tour, on which he’s been accompanied by family members (some of whom play in his backing band) and lyric prompters. I suspect there won’t be many dry eyes in the house by the end of this show. Tonight (Thursday, April 26) at the Uptown Theater.
