Concerts?

[Eric Wettschreck]

And congrats, Eric, on having a famous son! He gonna be playing anything in MN anytime soon?

We're not quite ready to call him famous.....just yet.

They're actually a really good garage band. How they got this gig is beyond me. I don't see them in your neck of the woods anytime soon tho. They're all going to Vo-Tech in Sioux Falls. Once they finish they'll prolly all go their seperate ways unless they do something crazy like go on tour............opening for RUSH!!!!!

Dude, what's Rush? You must be old....

We're heading to Bayfield mid-June to catch Trampled by Turtles at The Big Top. Should be a good time.

In a word, this concert was incredible. Trampled killed it in a set that was almost 2 hours long. A band out of St. Paul named Pert Near Sandstone opened up and were also great. Very cool music, fun, good crowd, and a great atmosphere. If you're even a little bit curious I'd check both of these bands out, they put on a great show.

We were at trampled also, great show. Might go see them at the state fair Aug 29.

They (Trampled By Turtles) are playing in Duluth on Saturday with Atmosphere, outside venue.

[Stick in Mud]

That would be an awesome show...It seems like Atmosphere has been around forever.

[titelines]

Yep, I think we're gonna be at both of these shows. We've been fans of TBT for many years but this is the first time we've actually seen them live. Needless to say we're hooked.

I'll be in Duluth this weekend, just got talked into it by my buddy who has been to 61+ TBT shows.

Heard today that Gary Clark Jr is playing at first ave Nov. 20th. Tickets go on sale this Friday. Super excited for this one. Been waiting 3 years for him to come to MN and its at First Ave!!!

Social Distortion at the Cabooze outdoor plaza next tues, cant believe this isnt sold out yet. Might have to go to that one, the last show they played here was pretty awesome.

TBT at the state fair with P.O.S.!

Saw them at Target Center a few months ago - they put on a GREAT show!! Thought about going to this one too, just can't make it work in the schedule.

Saw Muse there as well this winter and was thoroughly impressed.

I am going to the Joan Jett/Bad Company concert on July 5th in Hinckley. I am hoping the weather is nice.

[pinkfloyd4ever]

oh my my oh heck ya! Tom Petty tonight!!

[Farley]

Besides maybe the MN Zoo, that Canal Park is the best outdoor venue I've ever been to, especially when the big ships roll slowly by right behind the stage. 9000+ people there for Atmosphere and TBT.

Atmosphere was pretty good:

Watching my morning jacket with trampled by turtles at midway stadium, waiting for wilco and bob dylan. Good show so far!

[Stick in Mud]

I'm a bit jealous, guys.....

It's not exactly a local concert, but if I didn't have pre-existing plans, I'd be heading down to see John Prine in Cedar Rapids, IA on the 14th.
