There are very few acts that I think would be great to see live, and even fewer that I would actually get to the point of laying down some cash to see. The problem usually is that when a band I like comes around, they usually end up touring with someone lame or as part of some "tour of a bunch of bands that you don't recognize except for this headliner". That is what happened the last time Good Charlotte came to Salt Lake City - they were joined by Metro Station (meh) and like 3 other bands. I was still tempted to go but didn't, then found out later that GC only played for 45 minutes or so. Needless to say - I haven't been to a concert since Van Halen due to the increased value of the dollar in my house.
But I squealed like a girl when it was announced that Gwen was back with her mates in No Doubt, and they were going to be touring with Paramore this coming summer!!! Finally - two of my favorites all wrapped up in one show with a very fashionable LAMB bow on top!! I'm already saving my loose change for the show - not sure when or where it will be, but I'm planning on being there!!!
(Enjoy these tasty treats from the two bands)
