Looking at the summer concert schedule for this year, I have to have...wow. It's been a long time since I can remember a summer concert schedule that was this packed with great shows. It seems that almost any night of the week this summer you can get a good if not great Live Nation show at either The Q, Blossom Music Center, House Of Blues, Jacobs Pavilion, Akron Civic Theatre and Cain Park. Acts like Red Hot Chili Peppers, B-52's, Todd Rundgren, Crosby Stills And Nash, Dave Matthews Band, Radio Head, Phish, Steve Miller Band, Bonnie Raitt, Sypro Gyra, Cheap Trick and Aerosmith are all coming and that only takes us into June! There is a lot of talent coming to the stages around Cleveland this summer.
Tickets to all of the shows are available at LiveNation.com
