And 5 acts....lots of time to hit the beer garden between them! I might just have to sit in the "Grass" section for this one but I cannot see paying the $80.00 per ticket though. I have a hunch that there will be several other great concerts there this summer! I wish "Sammy Hagar" would come our way! Now that Van Halen bailed on their tour nothing stopping him now......come on Sam....bring it this way would ya!!!!

I'm with Nwokie. Never heard of the Gin Blossoms. The Pretenders are one band I've n ever cared for. Anyone know if REO is still the original group? Growing up in St. Louis, REO was always a home town favorite. Saw them many times!

From the ever present Wikipedia; Gin Blossoms are an alternative rock band formed in 1987, in Tempe, Arizona. They took their name from a photo of W.C. Fields which bore the caption "W.C. Fields with gin blossoms," referring to the actor's gin-ravaged nose. The band, who were musically weaned on The Byrds and Tom Petty[citation needed], released three albums and had several hits in the mid 1990s, before breaking up in 1997. Five years later in 2002, the band reunited, released a DVD, resumed touring, and promised a fourth album. Major Lodge Victory, the Gin Blossoms' first album in ten years, was released on August 8, 2006 on the Hybrid Recordings label.
