SALT LAKE CITY-- A Utah man was instrumental in bringing two '90s icons to Utah for a concert some fans have been waiting 10 years for.
MC Hammer and Vanilla Ice are performing together at the McKay Events Center in Orem Friday at 8 p.m.
Since the early '90s, people have been trying to get them back on stage. Utahn Sam Salisbury, owner of Rock Star Shows, finally made it happen.
"I said, ‘I know Ice's manager. I know a guy who works with Hammer. They haven't done it for 20 years. Let's do it. Why not?'" he said.
So Salisbury made the phone calls, tracked down the funding and organized the entire event.
And yes, Hammer and Ice will play some old hits like "Ice Ice Baby" and "U Can't Touch This."
