Anyone going to some good shows this summer? I am hoping to catch Tori Amos in her second leg of the tour. Other than that I dont have many plans....hopefully there will be some good shows this summer! ;D

Personally, there are only 2 bands that I am dying to see this summer.
Ourboros Kevin Martin & The Hiwatts.

Doesn't look like anyone good is coming to Rockford this summer so far. However, I most definately am going to On the Waterfront Festivale. I saw the greatest show ever there last summer, Ember Swift. Hot damn, she did a protest song about aerosol cheese!
Say no, NO!, to spray on cheese. Say no no no to spray on cheese.
Grrr, they need to bring her back and have her jam with Fruit again.
Last years headliners sucked though. Friday night: Montgomery Gentry. I had to take my little cousin to this. Ugh. Horrible wannabe from Nashville country, with horrible wannabe rednecks yelling and screaming. They did do a good bass solo though. Saturday night: Tesla. I didn't attend this one. I was seeing the Snaggs (Local pop/punk-ish stuff. The singer [Holland Zander] is Robin Zander of Cheap Trick's daughter [Note: Cheap Trick are from Rockford]). Closing Sunday night: Kool and the Gang. Didn't see this one either. I saw something much, much, much, much better. THE DARK STAR ORCHESTRA!!!! WOO!!
But yeah.

yeah I think this summer is not looking good in TX either... I was hoping for a possible AIC tour, you know if they decided to reunite for good but theres no word on that so far.... Oh and I was hoping maybe Jerry Cantrell would be done with his fucking 3rd record by now and touring, but nah the man is taking his time... which probably means we can expect some KICKASS music from him... On a side note, a year ago I was seeing the then-called Sparticle guys in Dallas... ahh man, I wish they would tour again... Thats about the only people I would die to see!

lets see, lauren (galaxie) mentioned something about lallapalooza in chicago, but we dont know what bands will be there. collective soul is coming to akron (love their old stuff) and don mclean (guy who sang american pie) is coming to akron too. i guess akron is deciding to try and be hip for once. z :peace:e

In fact, I remember maybe 2 or 3 months later they exploded! But their show was pretty good, they're music is not what I would normally listen to, but they did a great job live... Plus they're all soo cute!
