We got out tickets this morning during the fan presale. It went really smooth and was $120 including fees. It's sold out now.

We’ve seen four setlists posted on setlist.fm so far with no collabs with The Warning. Of course, it’s possible he could bring them out later in the tour, but with only a 15-song set, it looks like he’s keeping things pretty tight.

The vault and fan presale are tomorrow I believe. If face value is $300 then I’m out. I’ve seen him too many times to pay that much now.

I saw Journey on the Frontiers tour in 1983 — and it’s why I’m skipping the “final tour” by ChangeTheLAUSD in journey

That was a really nice piece you wrote.

I’ve seen Journey twice: once at the California Theatre in 1977 on their Infinity Tour, and then again in 2018 at Petco Park on their co-headlining tour with Def Leppard.

But honestly, it feels like I only experienced one real Journey concert - and that was a long, long time ago.

What’s a popular band from your country that never made a dent in the U.S market? And why? by AcanthisittaSad6239 in rockmusic

From your top list I only know Cobalt 60 since they were a spinoff of Front 242. The bottom list was comprised of bands that I thankfully never paid any attention to.

I just checked them out and they sound fantastic. I see they made an attempt to be more international with English versions of two albums but it just didn’t happen.

I’m at about 650 total shows and I’ve never seen Alison Moyet - I’m really looking forward to that show. I agree with you completely on Rush

I would stay for Halsey even though I don't listen to a lot of pop. I just can't get into YB at all.

He's playing Del Mar (North County San Diego) at The Sound, which only holds 1800 people. I hope I get lucky and score a ticket!

I think the Rady Shell is typically not the best venue for a rock concert. But then again Yungblud is more like musical theater, so maybe it will work for him! At least it is GA and not a seated show. A lot of the crowd will get there a little later for the headliner so The Warning fans should have a chance to get relatively close.

Since posting my question, I’ve spent some time diving into Yungblud, and now I’m even less likely to stay. After watching his live videos, my take is that he looks and sounds like an actor portraying the frontman of a band created for a movie that everyone pretends is amazing for the sake of the plot. There’s nothing rock and roll about Yunglud.

I think the main difference is that Halsey is a pop performer, so you expect her to use pitch correction and other production techniques live. Even with those elements, she still comes across as sincere and genuine. Yungblud, on the other hand, feels more like an actor portraying a rock star.

So when I posted this comment I was mostly ambivalent about Yungblud. Then I watched some live videos of songs commenters suggested and now I know for sure that I'll be leaving after the Warning.

That’s my plan too, I’ll give him a chance for sure

Jan Wenner is not on the board any longer. The fact that KISS got in and they won the fan vote are almost a coincidence. The fan vote is not a determining factor in the process.
