If you want to see a solid band go see Fire On Your Sleve on the 4th of July. They are a Milwaukee band and they are solid and good guys too. I wish this show wasn't on the 4th because I rather go on a less crowded night but it's worth it. They will also be on a main stage so if you get there early you'll potentially see two solid shows with the next headliner and have good seats for getting there early.
This is from Pollstar. Welcome Pat Benatar
Stevie Wonder is up on last.fm
Last.fm lists Steve Miller Band for Sunday, June 29; State Radio for Tuesday, July 1.
Also, gives a date for Matisyahu - Monday, June 30; O.A.R. - Wednesday, July 2.
It's nice to see Michigan get it's second Foo Fighters date before Wisconsin even receives it's first one. Although I doubt it will happen at this point it would be nice to see the Summerfest a date with the Foo Fighters instead of having them come to the Badley Center (no spelling error as that place flat out sucks for concerts) to play. Actually at this point it would be nice to see the Summerfest sign any decent rock band for the Amp because there hasn't been any signed as of yet. Normally the powers that be announce one new signing a week and we've yet to have any this week. I still see Shery Crow as coming but that's not a rock band and with the Foo Fighters touring this summer along with Pearl Jam it would be nice to see one of them signed. On another note I'm glad that the Counting Crows will be coming to the Amp and not during Summerfest so I can actually enjoy the show with a smaller crowd. They are playing a show at Carthage College also early next month.
I agree, i saw metallica at the bradley center....poor location. Foo Fighters might as well just make a stop at the U.S Cellular Arena. Complete bullshit that michigan gets another tour date. Out of all places....michigan?!?!? *** michigan.
does anyone know what stage 311 will be playing on July 6th?

Yeah, a free one thankfully, hopefully they are playing for free also or somebody should call the cops for theft.
Excuse me?!?! 311 is one of the best live bands out there that continues to sell out amphitheatres (when they want to play amphitheatres). They haven't even put out a new album since 2005, and are stronger than ever with a huge following of loyal fans. I just saw them this weekend in Indiana (32nd show) and they are still as amazing (if not moreso) than the first time I saw them in 2001. Give them a chance!! =)
