Summer Concerts

I just checked up on the summer concert tours - definitely some sick music coming through my area, and soon. What's everybody looking at for summer concerts?

The two big concert series that sound most appealing to me:

WARPED TOUR
-Bad Religion
-Reel Big Fish
-Bosstones
-NoFX
-MxPx
-Homegrown
-New Found Glory
-the Vandals
-about 60 more bands

Sprite's Summer Jam
-Jay Z
-311
-Nappy Roots
-Talib Kweli

I'll probably try to catch these two tours at some point , as well as Weezer (w/ Dashboard Confessional) in Chicago in July, and Jimmy Eat World when they're through later this month.

And I'm sure the Dave-heads will happily inform us of his tour, starting in September . . . anyone else got any good concerts coming up?

I saw the Pop Disaster Tour last weekend in Noblesville and it was phenominal....Green Day is wonderful. They were my favorite band of all-time growing up and may still be really...hard to say these days. Anyway, they played only 1 song from the last cd, and only 2 or 3 from the one before that....the rest was ALL OLD SCHOOL....and they played some OP.IV. to which is awesome...

And here I was dressed in AF and North Face amongst a million people looking at me because I didn't LOOK punk enough for them.....and who danced all night because he knew every word of every song Green Day had written prior to the last 2 albums...if it's on the first 4 it's mine

Anyway..Saves the Day was good, but I thought Blink 182 sucked, but I don't really like them very much so it's cool....


and Bonaroo is this weekend....anyone going?

I saw Green Day at X-Fest at the same venue last year I think. They pretty much kicked ass, set the drums on fire at the end of the set...

I've heard Blink 182 is no good live from several people.

I'm looking forward to The Who at Verizon in August, and thinking about going to the Boogie, in southern Indiana to see among other groups David Allan Coe and .38 Special

Well, depending on what happens, I'm hoping to catch every band I want to see during Summerfest in Milwaukee, these bands include:

Our Lady Peace
The Gufs
Rush
OAR
Bela Fleck and the Fleckstones
Filter
G Love & Special Sauce
Lifehouse
Ben Folds

But, I'm willing to bet that I won't get to see most of these, so the first three or four are top priority.

I'll also be catching John Mayer when he comest to milwaukee in late july and I'll also be catching some Creed and DMB action.

This isn't exactly summer, but on November 9, 2002 (to you Sigma Kappa's- it is better known as Founder's Day) I will be Front Row at Pac Bell Park in San Francisco for the Rolling Stones final tour. Words cannot describe how excited I am!!!

Actually, they can....

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Greek Love,
Lil Snakey K

I am going to see them next thursday! I can't wait! Tonight I went to Jimmy Buffett but because I was the DD I had to stay sober. I'm also trying to work something out to get tickets to see DMB in August.

I have 5th row tix for PA and 12th for CT. YEAH!

Check around, i know there are quite a few people that are trying to get rid of their john mayer tickets for that show....some people bought too many, some don't want to go, that kind of stuff. Check out the for sale bulletin in the UWM union, that thing is a gold mine!
