The program spans various styles and bands, making the concert more varied than a tribute dedicated to a single artist.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Skip it if<\/strong> you expect a full band, guitars or vocals. This is an instrumental concert for string quartet. Punctuality is also important because Fever states that entry is not permitted after the concert begins.<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/applications-media.feverup.com\/image\/upload\/f_auto,w_550,h_550\/fever2\/plan\/photo\/5106088e-1aa1-11f0-99f6-2e70bd7ed5db.jpg\" alt=\"Candlelight: 80s Rock Anthems at the Museum of Tomorrow\" loading=\"lazy\" title=\"\"><figcaption>Photo: Fever \/ press materials.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 id=\"repertorio\">Expected program<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Africa \u2014 Toto<\/li>\n<li>I&#8217;m Still Standing \u2014 Elton John<\/li>\n<li>Every Breath You Take \u2014 The Police<\/li>\n<li>Beat It \u2014 Michael Jackson<\/li>\n<li>Everywhere \u2014 Fleetwood Mac<\/li>\n<li>The Logical Song \u2014 Supertramp<\/li>\n<li>Sweet Dreams \u2014 Eurythmics<\/li>\n<li>One \u2014 Metallica<\/li>\n<li>Under Pressure \u2014 Queen + David Bowie<\/li>\n<li>With Or Without You \u2014 U2<\/li>\n<li>Sweet Child O\u2019 Mine \u2014 Guns N\u2019 Roses<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Program subject to change.<\/strong> The original artists do not take part in the experience; this is a tribute concert performed by the Ornamentus String Quartet.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"experiencia\">How it works<\/h2>\n<p>The concert lasts 60 minutes, and the doors open 30 minutes beforehand.
