The orchestra recently survived a six-month strike and labor dispute and has recently been the benefactor of Quicken Loans chairman Dan Gilbert’s enthusiastic attention.  Officials credit Gilbert with the proposal of teaming with Rock for the performance.  Tickets for the event will range from $100 – $350 and are on sale at www.olympiaentertainment.com and www.ticketmaster.com.
