2 Cellos add second concert in Tampa

   When 2 Cellos played a concert at Tampa's Straz Center for the Performing Arts a couple of years ago, there wasn't an empty seat in the house.
   The upcoming 2 Cellos shows at the Straz is apparently selling very well too. It's still seven months away, but already the Straz has added a second show.
   The added show is on the same date -- Saturday, May 9 -- but it's a 2:30 p.m. matinee.

The original show (which is still on, of course) is scheduled for 7:30 p.m.

   Croatian cellists Luka Sulic and Stjepan Hauser have have gained stardom by using the cello as a pop and rock instrument. They created a hugely popular version of Michael Jackson's "Smooth Criminal," they were the first instrumental act to appear on "Glee" and they've performed with the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
   Tickets for their Straz shows are $35-$45 plus service charge. Call 813-229-7827 or go to strazcenter.org.
