What's everyone's go to for last min deals?

Probably Ticketmaster resale. Maybe stubhub if it’s the day before or early that morning but not sure I want to be trying to get tickets last minute through them

I’ve never had any issues but hear a lot of horror stories.

If there’s a better option I’m open to it

My son was interested in seeing The Offspring in NJ
Figured why not, I know plenty of songs
Was an awesome time.
Would definitely watch them again

Also monitoring NIN prices in Philly at the end of the month.

Will Oasis prices ever be less then a Bryant Boat?

That's what I say about Billy Strings tickets. I mean he is good but its not like its a Beatles or Pink Floyd concert.

Billy is on another level. Deserves whatever he is charging.

Went to my first King Gizzard show and had a blast. I get it now. Great live band.

On my list to see

Just saw Descendents and Teen Mortgage. Heading out to Denver in a couple of weeks for Ghost Canyon Fest. So far for September, I have tickets for Bob Mould, Bronson Arm, Dazzling Killmen and Tropical **** Storm (3 shows)

Went to Jason Aldean concert last night at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville. I'm not a fan of his political views (and he didn't do a lot of talking so that helped), but he sure gives a great performance. It was about 100 minutes of loud, raucous, country-rock. Also Kane Brown popped on stage for Dirt Road Anthem.

Nate Smith opened for him and played his recognizable hits.

We then hit Broadway and listed to even more live music until 2:30a. It was a great couple of days. My son turned 21 on Wednesday and I wasn't sure I was going to be able to rally last night but after a couple of vodka + Red Bulls, we were off!

Just bought tickets for my daughter and her friend for Chris Stapleton tomorrow night. This will be her first concert. I mean she tagged along to one for sibling when she was little but that doesn't really count.

Descendants still sound great after all of these years.

I’d pay whatever he’s asking to see him again but my problem is he’s playing massive arenas now and that’s not for me anymore. I saw him twice in small venues years ago and that’s going to have to suffice until 20 years from now when he’s on the county fair circuit. He sold out the Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee tonight which is about 20,000 capacity for concerts.

I’ve got Neko Case, Leon Bridges / Charley Crockett (the Crooner and the Cowboy tour) and Colin Hay booked in the next month or so with a few other possible shows I’m looking at.

Indeed. Saw them before Milo went to college and after Milo quit his gig at Dupont and was shocked at how they hadn't lost a step. Maybe better now.

Last night Widespread Panic and Dark Star Orchestra both had shows in Indianapolis. Doesn't seem like very smart scheduling. I ended up going to Panic. Good show.

Wow, much earlier than me. I think the first time I them was in 96, give or take a year.

NIN was amazing. They definitely didn't gain any tickets because Boys Noize was the opening DJ. I've been a big fan of his for the past decade or so. But listening to people at the bar and pre show...no one knew. His decks were at the back of the floor opposite the mainstage, right where my tickets were on floor. Incredible for me because I've always wanted to see him live. But it was funny that everyone around me didn't know where the music was coming from. They just sat in their seats and stared at the curtains on the main stage...anyway.

Beside playing the classics on the main stage with the full band my favorite part of the show was just Reznor, Atticus Ross, and Boys Noize performing 4 or 5 songs in a middle pop up stage where they re-did some songs from Pretty Hate Machine and Downward Spiral that they were remixing live and more of an electronic vibe to them. Incredible performance.

Lastly Josh Freese absolutely killed it on the drums. Great to see him back. He got the longest ovation of anyone.

Oh...they also did Bowie's "I'm afraid of Americans" Another highlight.

Tedeschi Trucks and Whiskey Myers tomorrow at the Greek. Should be a beautiful night of music

Sorry, I have to self correct here. I was off by about 10 years. Maybe a bit more. I first saw them in the early 90's shortly after ALL.

 

[Tin Cup]

Saw Toto, Christopher Cross, and Men At Work last night. It was like being high school me again for a few hours.

 

[Wingnut]

Saw Mike Campbell & The Dirty Knobs last night in Clearwater.

They played a little more than 2 hours, 20+ songs with a handful of Tom Petty & Heartbreakers hits sprinkled in, and had former fellow Heartbreaker Steve Ferrone on drums, which I wasnt expecting. It was really cool to see those 2 back on stage together having fun.

Heartbreakers hits they played:
Love is a Long Road
A Women In Love (It's Not Me)
You Got Lucky
You Wreck Me
Runnin Down a Dream

Just a great, fun rock show.

Great night. The Greek in the summer is my favorite venue of all. Surrounded by trees in a natural amphitheater, phenomenal acoustics, perfect cool/clear night. Susan even commented she loved how cool it was compared to the rest of the country. Pregame on picnic benches beforehand. It’s just perfect. Seeing Teddy Swims here next month.

Hardcore TTB fans were upset that this a true co headliner show. They both played 90 minutes. I liked WM. Lead singer was great and they were high energy. Brought balance to the show. But people wanted 2+ hours of TTB. I get it. Susan and Derek were on fire as were the whole band. So so good. Brought Doyle Bramhall II out for the last 3 songs which was cool

Of course, and he did a little crowd sing along for it.
