green-day

Summer concert season is heating up. A plethora of exciting show announcements have rolled in the past few weeks. In addition to top name acts including Dave Matthews Band (7/8), Imagine Dragons (6/22), Taylor Swift (6/3), One Direction(8/27), The Alternative Press Music Awards (7/22), among many others, this week, a bunch more have been added to the list!

Fear not, Hipsters, next week we will explore the top Indie and local artist shows.

[Side note: Shout out to the huge jerks at Live Nation / Ticketmaster for now longer listing ticket fees under ‘Price Range’ on your website and once again surprising fans with your excessive fees at checkout. Here at CleveRock, we don’t have the time to add tickets for every show to check on these inconvenience fees. Shame on you!]

My dear friend Jack Daryl “Freebird” Bateman III once said back in 2002, “There aren’t many great bands these days. Nobody is going to look back 20 years from now and say, ‘Damn! Sugar Ray…They were a great band’.” So true, Jack. One of the worst bands of the 90’s will perform at the Hard Rock Rocksino on Saturday, August 1. Fellow terrible 90’s act Uncle Kracker will be joined by saving graces Eve 6 and Better Than Ezra. Tickets start at $45.90 (including fees). You can purchase them, HERE, but we don’t recommend it!|
