What concerts are YOU going to this Summer?

Hi Everyone!
Just wanted to share that I made it to the True Colors concert at Bethel Woods Performing Arts Center, NY on June 14th!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I had a GREAT time. There were performanaces by Deborah Cox, The Cliks, Cyndi Lauper, B-52s, "stand up" by Rosie O'donnell (who was not at all funny & only spoke about her mother who died of breast cancer when Rosie was little and about how bitter she is about The View.) It was hosted by Carson Kressley from Queer Eye for the Straight Guy & Look Good Naked. He was VERY funny! The whole tour is to raise money and awareness for gay/human rights. I enjoyed it so much!

There were lightening storms & quite a down pour, so a lot of people didn't show up. Cyndi Lauper called all the people on the lawn (that would be me) to move up into the pavillion. It was a huge party.....
The main attraction for me (and a lot of other people) were the B-52s!!! They so rocked! I can't even express how much fun I had. I was there w/ my husband, who sat in his seat w/ his arms crossed the whole time (which he does at any concert), my 16 yr old daughter & her friend. Me & my daughter danced to every song the B-52s played...they played a bunch of songs from their latest CD Funplex, which I loved. They also played Roam, Love Shack, Private Idaho & Rock Lobster & lots more!!!
For the encore they did a sing along of Everyday People and True Colors which was incredible. Cyndi Lauper's son Decklin who is about 10 came out & break danced and sang with his mom. It was just so much fun!
I am so grateful that my 16 year old daughter danced with me the whole time....shimmied with me....my husband said we looked choreographed! :-) We laughed & hugged & it means so much to me!

What concerts are YOU going to this Summer????? Share with us!!!

I am only going to one so far this summer: Dave Matthews Band at the Gorge, it's a labor day tradition here in the Pacific NW. He plays 3 shows, they all sell out every year and it's a good ol time and a beautiful venue. I got to see Dave do an acoustic show with Tim Reynolds a couple months ago here in Seattle too and it was incredible.

My wishlist: Alex Cuba, KT Tunstall; ▶ Reply to This

Isn't it "AMAZING" to have our children appreciate the same music as we do & to show their expression of it as well.????

I LOVE DAVE MATTHEWS and go my now 19 year old daughter into him that she nows travels all over to see them. She just came back from a 2 day camping trip to see him @ Saratoga Springs. I am now living my life Vivariously through her... (smile)... The concert i took her to see Dave was In Central Park a couple of Years back.. IT WAS AMAZING... We have been to other concerts together and my 16 son has as well.

I am taking my daughter to see Sheryl Crow the End of the Month @ Jones Beach. We live very close to the beach and it is an "Awesome" venue to see a concert... We actually have Orchestra seats so I imagine we will be doing "A LOT OF DANCIN".....
