I know two people who ain’t hatin’ on One Direction. One is me, the other is Debbie Harry after the band covered “One Way Or The Other”! Me? I thought they were terrific at Jingle Ball last December. Did I say two people? Plus another 25, 000 teen girls who will be at Izod Center Tuesday night.
Monday – Bow Wow Wow – The Grand Victory – With Gene Loves Jezebel, without Annabel Lu
Tuesday – Jackson Browne – State Theater – Still running, nowhere near empty.
Thursday – Heart – Mohegan Sun – Working July 4th? What troopers and here is your reward, a shout out on Active Viewin’
Friday – Jack Phillips – Don’t Tell Mama – If you missed him last time, here is where you make up for all your mistakes.
Friday – Klymaxx – BB Kings – Popular dance band in the 1980s -more r&b than synth obsessed for the time
Saturday – She & Him – Summerstage – Sure she was great in 500 Days but what has she done for me lately?
Saturday – Hunter Hayes – Oakdale Theater – Pretty boy country star soon to be superstar
Saturday – Dwight Yoakum – Belleayre Music Festival – My brother’s fave musician, and he is really pretty good.
Saturday – Flaming Groovies – Bowery Ballroom – Good to have the protopunk band back
Saturday – The Rascals – Jones Beach – They were superb on Broadway earlier this year, they should kill it at Jones Beach.
Sunday – Warped Tour – PNC – Who the hell wants to go the PNC? I thought they were worried about kids and transportation??
