They just announced that Gene Simmons is playing my local county fair this summer. I don’t expect anyone here to actually care, I just thought it was hilarious and wanted to share.
OC announced their lineup - it's a bunch of tribute and/or country bands, but Nelly & Too Short together jumped out at me.
This is the Alameda County Fair, they always slow-drop their concert lineup. A few tribute bands so far, classic artists like The Beach Boys, Tower of Power, and the aforementioned Gene Simmons… and Flo Rida lol Last year Gym Class Heroes played, and the year before that Plain White T’s did, so I’d expect something along those lines to be announced soon. Hoobastank and Everclear did a co-headline show at the San Mateo County Fair last year lol. That was bizarre, but also a lot of fun.
Need to get Freya Skye tickets tomorrow for my daughters in NJ. Last time I was at close to 97,000 in line for a venue of 6,000. Praying the Ticketmaster gods shine down on me. She’s a girl from a Disney movie. Insane.
Not gonna lie there are some ear worms on the Descendents and Zombies soundtracks. We saw the arena tour for it and it went hard. Excited to get my kids into live music with the hope some day they will want to go to punk shows of their own. Brought them to see Dashboard and they enjoyed it.
It's their safecamp symbol. You'll probably see a dozen people with that tattoo at each show if they reunite.
