Glee hits the road for spring tour

Things we already know about the hit show “Glee”:

1) Well, it’s a hit. Ratings are good and people are talking.
2) It’s a show about a glee club. That means lots of singing and dancing.
Knowing these two things it should come as no surprise that the cast of Glee will be going on tour this spring. The list of dates is short, but they’re hitting most of the big cities (including two dates in New York City).
May 18 Phoenix, AZ Dodge Theatre
May 20 Los Angeles, CA Gibson Amphitheatre
May 21 Los Angeles, CA Gibson Amphitheatre
May 25 Chicago, IL Rosemont Theatre
May 26 Chicago, IL Rosemont Theatre
May 28 New York City, NY Radio City Music Hall
May 29 New York City, NY Radio City Music Hall

Switchfoot – Mess of Me

The new video for “Mess of Me” by Switchfoot is up on their YouTube page. Also, tickets are on sale for their upcoming tour. The New York date is 12/8 at The Filmore Irving Plaza. Personally I have never had the chance to see them live, although I have be trying for about two years now. Anyone have an opinion on their live show? Comments on this are welcome.

Switchfoot to Tour Again

Tickets go on sale today for Switchfoot’s latest tour. This is in anticipation of their new album “Hello Hurricane” which comes out this November. The tour itself starts October 30th in Florida and hits the NY/NJ area December 8th when they come to Irving Plaza. Tickets for that show are $25. This blogger has missed every chance to see Switchfoot live and may just have to go see this show. Will you be there?

Bon Jovi Announces World Tour

Bon Jovi has announced a world tour to go along with the upcoming new album they are currently working on. The New Jersey stop will consist of two dates at the New Meadowlands Stadium in East rutherford, NJ. The last tour Bon Jovi did was also the opening of Prudential Center in Newark, NJ. Seeing as how the band is the pride of NJ it only seems fitting that they play such an important role in the expansion of the music scene here.
