Babylon Town Supervisor Steve Bellone will present Town of Babylon and 1971 Lindenhurst High School graduate, Pat Benatar, with the Key to the Town on Sunday, August 11 at 12 noon on the steps of Babylon Town Hall.
VH1 named Benatar to its list of the 100 Greatest Artists of Hard Rock. Her hits include Love Is A Battlefield, You Better Run, and Hit Me With Your Best Shot. Benatar is acknowledged as the leading female rock vocalist of the ‘80s. Of her nine original albums released between 1979 and 1989, seven were certified platinum and two went gold. During that decade, she was nominated nine times for Grammy Awards for Best Rock Performance (female), winning an unprecedented four Grammy Awards in consecutive years.
As a special treat, some current Lindenhurst music students will give a performance of one of Benatar’s hits.
Music by WBAB, along with ticket give-aways to Benatar’s concert that same evening at Westbury Music Fair. Also, Benatar DVDs and refreshments. Babylon Town Hall is located at 200 East Sunrise Highway in Lindenhurst.
