Nope. I have no desire to spend my evenings listening to has-been artists with the low-lifes of Lansing.

That's actually a pretty solid lineup in 1997. But I like 90's music so I'd go if I still lived in Michigan

Sorry - the chance of there being a mosh pit is too likely.

probably get sauced and see Eric Church, maybe Bush if the ticket isn't expensive. Other than that looks like a lot of one hit wonder 90's bands

2005 had the best lineup. Allman Brothers (Larry McCray showed up), Buddy Guy, Black Crowes, Grand Funk Railroad, Beach Boys, Journey. None of the lineups since have come close imo.

Eric church for sure. He does an amazing live show. Plus Lukas Nelson (Willie's son) is also that night.

Seattle hates Candlebox. I don't, but they were kind of a cash grab act. Whatever. I like them.

I have always planned on going to see Bush. I had no idea The Walflowers were scheduled to play but I will probably go see them as well. Not sure why people tend to rag the people that choose to go to this every year. The group of people I usually go down there with are far from trashy.

saw The Wallflowers years and years ago open up for Counting Crows.. they're a solid band.. it's possible that Jakob Dylan might play some of his solo stuff, as well - that would be cool to listen to..

Pine Knob? If so, I was at that show as well and remember being pissed the Counting Crows played Mr. Jones as a ballad...

three days grace is a pretty good live show. I wont be there (live in memphis) but i've seen them 2 or 3 times live and they were good each time.
The first time MSU basketball aired in France the French surrendered to Tom Izzo just to be safe.

The whole grunge rock was overrated. Sure if you were in on Temple of the Dog and you owned Bleach before Nevermind you prolly hold grunge in high regard! Not me. I was never a huge Soundgarden, Alice in Chains, Nirvana fan etc. I was more of a STP, 7Mary3, Blind Melon, Candlebox, Bush etc. Whatever

Wow, 7Mary3...American Standard was one of the first albums I ever bought. I think Bush was the first.
Oh, and Temple of the Dog was awesome.

I specifically remember getting American Standard and REM's Monster free (plus shipping) with my BMG order of AIC unplugged.

Awesome. Although his new album is a bit disappointing.

Cheap Girls have been added to the Common Ground lineup... finally a band worth seeing..

Just saw the same thing on the facebooks. Looks like my 6 year Common Ground hiatus will be coming to an end. Viva Cheap Girls!

I might actually venture downtown for the show..

Get nice and loaded at any one of the number of fine drinking establishments before hand because IIRC beers at Common Ground are stupid expensive.
It's funny that they are playing on the night that Bush headlines. Bush, Goo Goo Dolls and No Doubt at Breslin was my first concert.

Bob doesn't drink, I'm sure he does some type of drug nobody else even knows about yet. Like the Bradley Cooper limitless shit or something.
