Concerts - What are you seeing this year?

[boogielicious]

Saw John Hiatt and Robert Cray last Sunday night at the Hampton Casino.  Both were excellent.  We're seeing the Eagles in September.

We are also trying to get last minute tickets to Jimmy Buffett at Great Woods.  My wife and I have seen him ~50 times.

I may go see In this Moment in October down in Louisville. Not sure yet, depends.

My wife really wanted to see Jason Aldean, Florida Georgia Line and Miranda Lambert tomorrow night at Progressive Field here in Cleveland. We waited a little too long for tickets though and they're selling for like $200 on the secondary market for mediocre seating. I'll definitely pass, but I know I have to make this up somehow lol.

He played at the Boston Strong concert last year.  We say the replay.  Excellent performer.

Yeah we saw him at Blossom Music Center out here last year. It was a great show. He was with Thomas Rhett and Jake Owen as part of the Night Train Tour. The only part that I did not like at all was paying $10 for a 24 oz Bud Light, or Bud Light Lime-a-Rita. $12 for a 24 oz. Yuengling.

Hoping for some good metal acts to come around. Between the Buried and Me is one of my favorite bands and they usually come up here once a year. Maybe Opeth will come around too.

Meh, probably nothing. Nothing music, at least.

I saw a David Bowie cover band a couple of weeks ago, and in a couple of more weeks I am seeing (and I shit you not) ... A Flock Of Seagulls!!!

[Lesterday]

working on the strip six nights a week and hosting a band at my venue four nights out of my work week, my concert going is non existent. Although, for my Birthday I'm going to go see The Dirty Heads and Pepper at Mandalay Beach.

Saw Jimmy Buffett last night.  Awesome show.

[RJH999]

Might go see Wu-Tang. Should be great as their farewell tour-ish. Not the same without ODB though(RIP)

Saw trivium twice this year once with volbeat and the next day at the rise above fest with seether and a few other bands that's it for this year

I know this is an old thread, but it's pretty general so I'll bring it back to life.

This past Wednesday I saw Train and Goo Goo Dolls at Blossom Music Center. I will have to say the highlight for me was Train playing a Steely Dan, Queen/David Bowie, and a Led Zeppelin cover. I grew up listening to a lot of what my dad listening to. So, I am huge fan of 60's/70's/80's classic rock. I never thought I'd hear some of these songs live.

Here are some photo's.

Thanks for reviving this, @saevel25.  I saw Jackson Brown a few months back, more my wife's preference than mine, but he was really good.  Next was the National Symphony Orchestra playing the score for the movie ET while the movie ran on the big screen.  They do a different movie each year, and it really makes you pay attention to how the score improves the movie.  Last, on Tuesday, we saw the Stray Cats on their 40 Year Anniversary Tour.  A REALLY good show, I posted a recent video on the "what are you listening to?" thread.  The opener was James Hunter, unknown to me previously, but really solid..

[Vinsk]

I plan to see ‘ The Lumineers’ in 2020.

[amished]

Saw Thompson Square and Nitty Gritty Dirt Band about a month ago, and recently saw that Logic and Prof will be doing a show at our state fair so we're going to be heading to that later this month!

Ah, you have me reminiscing about a Pearl Jam concert I went to where I heard Under Pressure covered as well.  Thanks to google, I was quickly able to pinpoint that it was 10/9/09 ... Eddie Vedder came out during or right after the opening act (Ben Harper) and did the song with them. :)  Good times.

Don't really go to concerts much nowadays - can't actually remember the last one - rather, instead, we've been going to musicals a few times a year.
