billsfanmiami(oh) Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 Decompressing after night 1 of rock on the range here in Cbus. Love this event! What other shows are people seeing this summer? Last weekend saw a great Pink Floyd cover band “wish you were here”. Hard to beat live music! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forgot about The Wood Brothers on Thursday. They were supposed to play last night at Browns Island, but I suspect the rain changed those plans.

Mr Info Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 (edited) Just two fests thus far. Floydfest July 25-29 http://floydfest.com/ I will be working helping out my wife's food truck that will be there for the 5th year in a row. But we alternate so can watch bands that we want to see. She brings a crew of 6 young women to work with her so great working environment for me. Lockn Aug 23-26 http://www.locknfestival.com/ Just enjoying the music at this fest...no work. @billsfanmiami(oh) thanks for the info on the Wish You Were Here band. Looked at their schedule but not many other dates yet. If you like Floyd, a couple of other bands are The Machine (they have been doing it for 30 years) http://themachinelive.com/ and Pink Talking Fish http://www.pinktalkingfish.com/tour.html PTF also do Talking Heads and Phish Edited May 19, 2018 by Mr Info 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chef Jim Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 (edited) All I have going on is Doheny Blues today. My concert schedule has gone down since moving from Oakland It as so cool being 15 minutes away from The Fox. And driving to LA to see shows sucks balls. As a matter of fact I flew to Oakland to see Umphrey's McGee in March and gave them a miss in LA LOL. http://dohenybluesfestival.com/performance-schedule/ Edited May 19, 2018 by Chef Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They played the festival last year and she was in a tye dye bikini and was wondering the crowd afterwards, she's super nice, but she's definitely a character. I am an xpn member and go to as many Free at Noon's as possible.

SinceThe70s Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 For the most part I won't see a band in the summer unless its outside. Going to Magpie Salute and Gov't Mule at Jones Beach. Mule is doing a Pink Floyd set. Wish You Were Here doing a normal set. Maybe see Umphreys at the Great South Bay music fest a few days later. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billsfanmiami(oh) Posted May 20, 2018 Author Share Posted May 20, 2018 Ive seen a ton of Bills gear so far at ROTR. Have talked to a bunch of Bills fans. Yesterday we had to evacuate the stadium for almost 4 hrs for what amounted to a few drops of rain. Oh well, made up for it once we got back in. Stone Sour & Avenged Sevenfold were the big names last night, both real good. Tonight is Tool which is my favorite band, so I’m pretty pumped.

Buffalo86 Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Saw Tricky a couple of weeks ago. Today my body is paying the price for bouncing around the Misfits mosh pit last night. Great time. Upcoming shows, in no particular order: Satyricon Slayer (with Testament, Anthrax, & Lamb of God) - twice Primus & Mastodon Foreigner & Whitesnake Judas Priest & Deep Purple Ghost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WotAGuy Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Already been to Jason Isbell, Decemberists, Brandi Carlile and Jukebox The Ghost. Still up David Byrne, and additional shows by Decemberists and a twin bill with Jason Isbell and Brandi Carlile. Tried for Joe Jackson at Tarrytown but the tickets went instantly.
