As part of the music class, I'll be taking students out to a few concerts and shows during the summer.

You can check out listings of who is on tour or what shows are playing here and here - stick to the NY area obviously, when selecting a suggestion. You can look up other resources too for info as well, of course.

However, this is hardly restricted to only the music class students. Anyone else, students or staff wanting to see a show should speak up... I still have a few contacts in the industry and should be able to get good tickets to most anything.

Shows I'm thinking of going to myself in the near feature:

ShowDateHourLocation
Stomp7/13/20037:00 PM Orpheum Theatre
Linkin Park 7/22/2003 7:00 PMBlue Cross Arena, (Rochester, NY)
Jason Mraz8/13/20036:45 PMRoseland Ballroom, (New York, NY)
Indigo Girls 8/14/20035:00 PMCentral Park Summerstage (New York, NY)
Tori Amos8/17/20037:30 PMFinger Lakes Amphitheatre (Canandaigua, NY)


And would you look at that. Looks like the Sex Pistols will be in town too this summer...

Ah. It's another one in the series of "Fuck me, we're nearly fifty" tours by aging punk acts, isn't it?

Romany took me a Pistol's gig once when I was a kid. Sid Vicious gobbed on me.

I'm invited, right? :)

Even if it's not exactly my speed, music-wise, I'd just like watching you enjoy it.

Oooh...

Can I go with you guys to Stomp, and Tori, and the Indigo Girls?

And hey. I don't know if it's your scene, but The Falcon Ridge Folk Festival (http://www.falconridgefolk.com/) is this month, and it's really close...

Well he's in the class, so he probably ought to be going anyway. But I know he'd like Stomp, and he might want to go to Falcon Ridge.

Do you think if we went we could camp, or would we be coming back every night? I mean, it's in driving distance, so we could...

But Stomp really should be seen at least once in a lifetime
Especially since he's doing the whole percussion thing...

staying overnight for the Saturday
YEAH! *hugs*
And that's the night that EFO is playing, right? Yes! *dances*

Will suggest it to Alex as well

Hmm... how many of us do you think will be going? Because you may need an extra chaperone...

EFO must be seen. Dar should not be missed. If they're going to be there this year I'd kill to see Railroad Earth (and Sam'd like them, they've got Bluegrass tendencies...)

I was already thinking about the Stomp one. Inspirational. :) And I'd like tagging along to the other ones, too.

The Falcon Ridge thing sounds cool. My mom likes folk music, she'll be jealous if we get to go. And camping would be fun.

Yeah!

*hugs* We'll find a cd to get for you mom. Do you know what she's already got?

Not off the top of my head, but I can e-mail and ask. And if there's local groups, she probably doesn't have any of those.

Friday and Saturday, the page says. Are they good?

Yeah! *dances*

They're great, and they're local. I've wanted to see them so badly, ever since I got here, but I keep missing their concerts.

Well, we'll have to leave early enough on Saturday that we make it in time, then. :) Do they have CDs? Because it sounds like they'd be a good group to send to my mom.

Yes, we will!

And yeah, they have CDs. I've got one of them, but have been wanting more myself. I'm sure your mom'd like them.

It doesn't say. But none of the stages open before ten, so it shouldn't be too hard to make it.

Gun sex?

Oh...my...

Not quite, Piotr. Not even punks are quite that kinky.
