Looks like Gaslight Anthem may be touring with Counting Crows this summer. Not sure I can sit through a Counting Crows show… not even to see TGA. Counting Crows are the only show I’ve ever seen that I would describe as terrible.
Yeah I don't think I can do it either. I like Counting Crows and they have a lot of really good songs, but they're one of the worst live bands I've ever seen. Just awful in concert.

I’m really torn about what to do. 😫

I used to love Counting Crows and was really excited to see them in concert at Red Rocks in 2023. I was surprised how bad they sounded and so I think I will sit this one out even though TGA is still on my list of bands to see live. They seem to come around Denver often enough I may hold out until they are a headliner again.
So… right now there is an opening at the Stone Pony summer stage for the days leading up to and including June 20th when TGA will not be in NY to open two shows for Counting Crows. I really hope that means they will be adding a TGA only local show here in NJ. I might hold out and see if that gets dropped in the next few months.

I'm on the fence for this. The crowd singing along at a TGA concert is what makes they're shows great for me. I doubt the CC fans will be into TGAs set.
two of my favorite bands. CC, obviously more then than now.
I’ve seen CC 3x. two were absolutely stellar; the most recent was good but not spectacular. seen TGA four times; one show absolutely sucked but brian was sick as a dog.
I’m tempted for this tour but a) I hate TGA being the opener and b) the venue kinda sucks.
If I had known then what I know now...

Great find! So it will be available to order online or at the stadium? It’s only a 15 or 20 minute ride for me to the blue claws stadium but just ordering online would be a convenience.

They're usually online. They've had some great collabs...Dinosaur Jr, Band of Horses, My Morning Jacket. Crazy names in this batch too.
