Randy Travis is making the trek to San Diego to put on a show at the Valley View Casino. If you are a fan of his get your tickets soon. Here is some info from wikipedia:

Randy Travis (born Randy Bruce Traywick, May 4, 1959 in Marshville, North Carolina) is an American multiple Grammy Award- and Dove Award-winning American country singer. Active since 1985, he has recorded more than a dozen studio albums to date, in addition to charting more than thirty singles on the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts, of which sixteen of those singles have reached Number One.

Considered a pivotal figure in the history of country music, Travis broke through in the mid-1980s with the release of his album Storms of Life on Warner Bros. Records; the album, which sold more than three million copies, made Travis the first country music act in history to achieve multi-platinum status. It also established him as a neotraditionalist country act, and was followed by a string of several more platinum and multi-platinum albums throughout his career. Starting in the mid-1990s, however, Travis saw decline in his chart success. He left Warner Bros. in 1997 for DreamWorks Records; there, he would eventually switch his focus to gospel music, a switch which — despite earning him only one more country hit in the Number One “Three Wooden Crosses” — earned him several Dove Awards.

Billy Idol is one of the greats from the 80’s. It is funny that he hasn’t changed in twenty years. He is coming to the Valley View Casino in San Diego (Valley Center). Get your tickets soon.

Generation X couldn’t hold itself together and the members soon parted ways. Producer Keith Forsey and Bill Aucoin took hold of Billy Idol’s career and quickly moved him to New York in hopes of capturing an American audience.

The punk era had come and gone, and “New Wave” was taking over. Radio stations wouldn’t play a punk album, let alone an album with a guy with white spiked hair on the cover. Record companies found a way around this by re-marketing their artists. Most music, even older punk acts were now marketed as “New Wave” so they would receive fair radio play.

A few of Idol’s songs could be heard playing in the New York dance clubs. “Dancing With Myself” had been remixed, and Idol heard the song being played at a club one night. The idea was to capitalise on the song’s popularity by re-releasing it on his own.

Oh Man!!! Say Anything is coming to the House of Blues. I wish I knew something about them. May be wikipedia can help us:

Say Anything began their career in 2001 under the name Sayanything. All but two of the original members attended Windward School at this time. Coby Linder attended Shalhevet High School and Josh Eichenstein attended Beverly Hills High School. They self-released two EP’s, Junior Varsity and Menorah\Majora (Menorah\Majora being an online release), and one LP entitled Baseball. Both Baseball and Junior Varsity are out of print and are no longer available.

Though it was previously indicated that Bemis would not perform any songs from Baseball live, he recently stated in an interview with Absolutepunk.net saying that “I will play them again at some point in some capacity.” These early albums have a more straightforward emo/pop-punk sound, as opposed to the hard-rock sound of later works. In 2003, Forrest Kline (of power pop band hellogoodbye) recorded For Sale… with them, which was their third EP released. Photos of Kline recording with Say Anything can be found on the official hellogoodbye website.

Now this is a band that I like. I haven’t heard the last album but the one that came out in 2002 is awesome. Yellowcard is coming to play at he House of Blues in San Diego. Go now and get tickets. Here is some info from wikipedia:

The band released their first album, Midget Tossing, in 1997. While Sean Mackin was featured on some of the songs, he was not a full-fledged member yet, as he still objected to many of the band’s messages. Where We Stand, their second album, featured the same lineup as Midget Tossing, and Mackin was featured on more songs. Soon Ben Dobson lost interest in the band and left. He was replaced by Ryan Key (vocals & rhythm guitar), a local of Jacksonville who was playing in a band called Craig’s Brother. This changed the band’s music style drastically, from hardcore punk to pop punk. It also changed most of their fan base, leaving them with a new beginning and a fresh start as a band.
