The Clash at the Exhibition Stadium in Toronto ( :sick:  ... worst concert venue ever) 35 years ago this summer.

 

Would love a do-over and I remember it as if it were yesterday.  Actually, I remember it more vividly than I remember yesterday.

Tomorrow night in Chapel Hill, NC a little band from Halifax, NS will be playing at an intimate venue (<200 capacity).

 

Sloan.  I'm way too old to be going out on a school night for these shows anymore, but I haven't seen them live since the late 90's... so off I'll go...... and suffer for it on Thursday.

 

funny you should be going to see Sloan...I took my wife and two sons (21 and 19 years old) last Thursday to see who are called the TransCanada Highwaymen... they consist of Chris Murphy lead singer of Sloan, Steven Page, the great voice from Barenaked Ladies, Moe berg from Pursuit Of Happiness )She's So Young and I'm An Adult Now) and Craig Northey from the awesome and underrated Odds (make You Made, It Falls Apart). Great show and highly recommended also going to see Carlos Santana, Foreigner, Burton Cummings band, ZZ Top and the Australian Pink Floyd Show at Casino Rama this summer. should be GREAT!!!

Hearing rumblings that Led Zep may play desert trip for their 50th anniversary . Apparently Plant turned down 14 million last time they were asked to play.

Plant's voice has got to be shot, right? He's gotta be unable to hit the notes at this point, no? Is there any other reason?

My early year concert slate has been completed:

Clapton at MSG

Blind Boys of Alabama - Corning Museum of Glass

Bela Fleck & Abigail Washburn - Corning

Buddy Guy at UB

 

Summer schedule thus far:

Tedeschi Trucks Band in Rochester

Boston in Syracuse

 

Taking my 13 year old to see Boston after taking the older two when Boston came to Big Flats, NY (Tags) two years ago. She will love it. 

Saw TTB last year at UB and they have a fantastic new live album out. I highly recommend. 

 

Edit: Just bought tickets to Tommy Emmanuel and David Grisman in Ithaca in November, and I forgot about Arturo Sandoval in Corning in September. 

Shaping up as a great year for shows!

Going to see these guys on Thursday:

 

 

Friend had an extra ticket and I know nothing about them besides the stuff I've listened to the last couple days. They're good, I need more punk in my life.

Got to see Jean Michel Jarre a few weeks ago. Only his second US show ever, and his first one since 1986. Only about 1,500 came out to see him in Boston. This for a guy who holds the Guinness record for largest concert crowd for a single performer, over 1 million. 

 

Also saw Midnight Oil (great) and will see KMFDM in October in a small club.

Restarting this thread in case anyone is interested as summer concert announcement season is finally upon us.

 

July is really shaping up for me! Acquired tix to James Taylor/Bonnie Raitt in Buffalo on 7/1 and Tedeschi Trucks Band 7/10 in Canandaigua.  I'm pretty pumped, actually. 

 

Who else is lining up their summer concert schedule now?

Yes C-mac is looking solid so far.  We are going big this year bucket list style and hitting Coachella. Not in love w/ the line-up, but timing works and the whole experience should be pretty cool.

Man do I want to go see Jack White at Artpark, but the tickets are like 110 bucks, and while its worth it I don't think I can swing it.

 

Tedeschi Trucks are playing up there, too, so that Might happen.
