The Venue That Time Forgot

August 21, 2004

Most of the time Duffy likes to yell at me about how L.A. gets all the great concerts and all the good tours. Well, we also have the Pacific Amphitheater at the Orange County Fair, which just completed one of the craziest summer schedules I have ever seen. I have never seen a larger collection of has-beens and general kitschy suckiness before. I could probably enjoy a few of those shows, if say, I brought my own time machine.

I would have posted this at the beginning of the summer, but I didn’t want anyone to be tricked into going.

THE LIST:
The Fab Four (Beatles Cover Band)
Psychedelic Furs/Berlin/Gene Loves Jezebel
Reba McEntire
Hoobastank/Lit
Righteous Brothers (actually just Bill Medley)
Train
Ozomatli/Dance Hall Crashers
Carrot Top
Hootie and the Blowfish (!!!)
Patti Labelle
Newsboys
Bill Cosby
Go-Gos
Hank Williams
Jackson Browne
John Fogerty
Don Henley
Sugar Ray
