    The post's caption continues, "Come see Jack White and his band perform this Saturday, July 27 at the American Legion Hall for a benefit show.

    "Sign up at the link in bio to get a code that will get you a chance to purchase a ticket. Tickets will go on sale Friday at 10 am CT."

    The caption added that doors will open at 5:30 p.m. and White will hit the stage at 7 p.m., so audience members will have the opportunity to catch the rock band Be Your Own Pet at Eastside Bowl afterwards .

    The American Legion Post 82 recently made headlines after the announcement that Honky Tonk Tuesday Nights, a long-time weekly event, would be moving from the space to the Eastside Bowl.

    The tradition began in August 2015 when Brendan Malone and Kevin Martin of band The Cowpokes threw lively two-stepping, country music and dance shindigs. The events later turned into a community staple where guest artists would take the stage.

    The Legion's final Honky Tonk Tuesday is on July 30.

    The Eastside Bowl's first Honky Tonk Tuesday is slated for Aug. 6.
