ROCHESTER - Clint Black, who surged to superstardom as part of the fabled Class of '89, reaching #1 with five consecutive singles from his triple-platinum debut, Killin' Time, will play one show only at the Rochester Opera House on Oct. 7.

Black followed his initial success with the triple-platinum Put Yourself in My Shoes, and then a string of platinum and gold albums throughout the '90s.

Perhaps most impressively, Clint wrote or co-wrote every one of his more than three dozen chart hits, including A Better Man, Where Are You Now, When My Ship Comes In, A Good Run of Bad Luck, Summer's Comin', Like the Rain and Nothin' But the Taillights, part of a catalog that produced 22 #1 singles and made him one of the most successful singer/songwriters of the modern era.

Along the way, Clint has sold more than 20 million records, earned more than a dozen gold and platinum awards in the U.S. and Canada, landed nearly two dozen major awards and nominations, including more than a dozen Grammy nominations, and earned a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
