The show's on Sunday.
Fall Out Boy, +44 (featuring Travis Barker and Mark Hoppus, formerly of blink-182), The Academy Is, Paul Wall and Cobra Starship.
If anyone's interested, let me know...

Eric Burdon & The Animals @ SD County Fair 06/20/07
In true fashion, Eric Burdon and The Animals started about 15 minutes late. He came out wearing shades and ready to rock. His band consisted of himself on vocals and 4 members: Red Young on keyboards, Eric McFadden on guitars, Paula O'Rourke on bass, Tony Braunagel on drums. And according to Burdon, Eric McFadden was present during some of the original recording sessions of The Animals. Paula, the bassist, was in a dress and boots. It reminded me of the way the band Hole would dress. The sound was fine after some fine tuning and the band seemed to be having a good time.
They played about 13 to 14 songs. They opened up with Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood. And they spread out the hits (We've Got to Get Out of this Place, It's My Life(which the guy next to me sang very loudly), I Put A Spell On You, and See See Rider) throughout the set and mixed them up with his solo albums that were all blues and New Orleans type jazz. I'm sure they played some other hits, but I can't remember. During House of the Rising Sun, the crowd went wild. People were running up to the stage and standing in front of the people that were seated. Granted, it wasn't meant to be a seated concert. People would get chairs and sit down wherever, even on the dancefloor. You had the ex-hippies dancing around, re-living their past. There were a lot of people there from that generation and most with their families and the few that were there on dates, acting like they were that age again. The young crowd was surprising. It wasn't huge, but they were present and they were vocal.
Burdon and his Animals played for about and hour and a half and they got a standing ovation at the end. I had a good time, sipping on my beer, observing the crowd and chuckling to myself when he played his song, Mother Nature, and stated how he could smell people smoking "Mother Nature."

Snoop Dogg and The Game: Two for the Price of One?
I got this email from the House of Blues. Ticket sales must be pretty low if they're doing something like this. I don't think they've done this before, at least not that I'm aware of.
They're offering tickets to see Snoop Dogg on June 27 and The Game on June 24 for $75 a ticket. They're both performing at 4th and B. You have to go through ticketmaster. Sorry.
So if you're interested, the password is BALLER.

Marilyn Manson/Slayer Tour Information
Tickets go on-sale on June 30th at 10am through www.ticketmaster.com.
They're playing at the iPayOne Center aka Sports Arena.
It doesn't say how much, but I'm guessing anywhere between $30-$50 dollars and that's without the service fees. I'm basing my guess on the other dates posted.
I've been looking everywhere for this information and no one has posted anything about it - so here you go!

Incubus Pre-Sale for SD Show
Hey All!
Want to see Incubus at the Coors Ampitheater on September 8th?
Pre-sale starts tomorrow at 10am through ticketmaster.com.
The password is nation.
I'm still debating. I would want to go see Incubus, but I kind of want to buy tickets to another event that goes on pre-sale tomorrow. Hmmm... decisions, decisions.

Weird Al at San Diego County Fair 06/13/07 Review (Kinda)
I laughed pretty hard last night at the Weird Al Concert at the San Diego County Fair.
He had 4 piece band (guitar, bass, keys, and drums) with him and a huge screen he used during his costume changes. He opened with a medley of current songs ranging from Black Eye Peas, Coldplay, Justin Timberlake, Avril Lavigne and some others. He sang their lyrics, but in his style.
I think my highlight was perhaps seeing him strip down to a yellow SpongeBob SquarePants T-shirt and then unzipping his fly and taking off his pants to reveal boxers and a pink tutu, all the while singing to James Blunt's "You're Beautiful," but a la Wierd Al. He also did a Star Wars paradoy and ended up grinding on a fan. hahaha
He played for about two hours and there were some sound/technical issues. The mix was too loud. It seemed like the sound guys weren't on the same page. I know during one of his "interviews" all sound was lost. All you heard was the booing of the fans, but it was fixed rather quickly.
He intervied Jessica Simpson (who like's to do it pdiddy style (back to back)), Mariah Carey, Madonna, Celine Dion, Justin Timberlake and a few others.
I'm happy I treked it. The traffic wasn't bad at all and the food was good.
I even caught a little of The Fab Four's set (Beatles Tribute Band). They were pretty good. They play all the instruments live and they sing everything. I'd definitely see both bands again.

Playground Slap at O'Connell's
Go check out Playground Slap with special guest Mike Keneally. I really like them, but I'll be watching Weird Al over at the San Diego County Fair.
Playground Slap will also be playing at the San Diego County Fair this summer so go there too!
O'Connell's is located on 30th and Adams, I think. :)

4'Oclock Friday's Line-up at Del Mar Race Track
07/20 Satellite Party featuring Perry Farrell
07/27 Pinback
08/03 Violent Femmes
08/04 The Cult
08/10 Unwritten Law
08/17 Cake
08/24 Pete Yorn
08/25 Reggae Fest featuring Ziggy Marley
08/31 Angels & Airwaves
I'm excited! It's mostly because of Pete Yorn and Cake, but I'll probably be at some of the other shows. The concerts are free with paid admission to the Del Mar Race Track. The band goes on after the last race, so the time may vary from show to show. The place where the bands usually play is pretty cool, but if you want to be upfront, you need to get there early. If I recall, I think you might be able to just buy a ticket to the show - but you might want to double-check that.

Cold War Kids at Street Scene 2007
You heard it first at SD: Dialed In.
I'm excited. I've never seen them. I think it'll be fun. The White Stripes though are another story. I've seen them live and I thought they were boring. But since the Cold War Kids are touring with The White Stripes, there's a good chance that they will be coming to San Diego.
I just really, really hope they get the Smashing Pumpkins on the bill.
