The Transformers: The Movie 40th Anniversary Celebration of Life Concert

Hasbro and Reigning Phoenix Music have announced The Transformers: The Movie 40th Anniversary Celebration of Life Concert, a special live event taking place Thursday, July 23, at House of Blues San Diego during Comic-Con week. The concert is part of Hasbro’s “Apology Tour,” a playful, year-long campaign celebrating the 40th anniversary of The Transformers: The Movie and acknowledging the moment fans still haven’t quite recovered from.
 
Featuring music from The Transformers: The Movie: The Soundtrack: The Reformatted Edition performed live by Knights of Unicron, along with a special performance of “The Touch” by Stan Bush, the concert pays tribute to the soundtrack that helped turn an animated movie into a cultural touchstone for generations of fans.
 
The concert also features a powerhouse lineup of fan-favorite performers, including Vince DiCola, whose legendary score helped define the sound and spirit of The Transformers: The Movie; Cold Slither, who returns to the stage after last year’s live debut at Comic-Con, bringing their loud and rebellious sound straight from the world of G.I. JOE; and Britta Phillips, the original singing voice of Jem from Jem and the Holograms, whose glitter, glam and truly outrageous pop flair makes every performance unforgettable. Together, these performers will turn the evening into a full-scale celebration of iconic Hasbro music and entertainment fandom that is… More Than Meets the Eye!
 
Additional special guests and performers will be announced in the coming weeks.
