If you haven’t heard their new record, Beyond, yet, you’re in for a real treat. Hard to believe that it’s the first record with the original lineup in 18 years.

These shows are going to be just insane, not to mention insanely loud. But i wouldn’t miss either of them for the world. Especially nice since i skipped their show at the Quest 2 years ago.

The John Mayer Continuum Summer Tour, which will kick off June 1 in Ridgefield, WA, and hit arenas and amphitheaters all over the US through Aug. 8 is starting to show up on ticket sites and Internet blogs this week.

Ben Folds will be the special guest on the entire outing, and buzz artists Rocco Deluca & the Burden, Brett Dennen, and James Morrison will take turns opening for the tour.  (Get your Tickets Now)

Tickets for the tour will be available to members of Mayer’s “Local 83? fan club this Friday (3/16) and the general public will get its shot at tickets beginning March 24.

We also have to wonder how many of the shows will be attended by his new hottie Jessica Simpson.  She would be worth going just to look at her!  Even though she is a little dumb, she is still a hottie!

Last year’s biggest “buzz” band from the U.K. didn’t bother coming to our lowly town at all last year, but they will make up for it when they come to Minneapolis on May 7th for a show at First Ave with Nashville’s ‘Be Your Own Pet’, another great band in their own right.Now i’ll be the first to admit that i didn’t really buy into much of the Monkeys hype, and even though their record had a few pleasant tracks, just didn’t really hit me like i’d hoped, I’ve heard nothing but great things about their live shows, so I will definitely have to check the show out.

Their 2nd album, Favourite Worst Nightmare, comes out on April 23rd.

Atlanta to Host the Final Four — Tournament Tickets Available

Every year, 65 college basketball teams get an invitation to ” March Madness.” Tickets to this event are extremely hard to come by, as NCAA March Madness is a unique event. There are “Cinderella Stories” to follow with every NCAA Tournament. Tickets are to varied venues around the country, and following a particular team can be a difficult task to manage. College basketball tickets are one thing, but NCAA basketball tickets require travel and planning, and you need a trusted source to give you an opportunity to acquire these sports tickets. Should your team make it that far, StubHub can also help you with Sweet 16 tickets and ultimately NCAA Championship tickets.

NCAA Basketball Tournament Tickets in Demand

NCAA tournament tickets annually ignite a full-blown frenzy for finding them, as no one knows where a particular team will be playing until the pairings are announced. Some fans don’t even know until the last minute if their team has been invited to March Madness. Tickets, as a result, are hard to come by. However, you’ve come to the right place for NCAA March Madness tickets, as StubHub offers a full selection of NCAA basketball tickets, Sweet 16 tickets and NCAA Championship tickets. Of all the college basketball tickets and even overall sports tickets on the market, no one has the selection that we do at StubHub. So don’t wait - get your March Madness tickets today!
