They are currently on tour with Nickelback, Hinder, and Papa Roach but after this tour wraps up the guys are hitting the town with their own headlining tour dubbed “the Class of 2009 Tour.” The line-up is killer with bands like Red, Pop Evil and the Taddy Porter. This one is sure to be a great show. Tour dates and more photos are after the jump.

Santana
Cricket Wireless – Chula Vista, CA
9/30/2008
Santana hit the road to support his newest release, which is not like a normal “traditional” album so-to-speak. This album, Multi Dimensional Warrior is a compilation of songs that spam the 1970’s to 2000. It consists of 14 vocal tracks along with a slew of instrumental songs from the same time period. It’s a two disc set compiled and sequenced by Carlos himself.
As for the night’s performance, the night opened with Santana’s son’s band, the Salvador Santana Band. The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree except this apple rolls a little different and plays keys.

People in Planes is out touring in support of their September release of Beyond the Horizon off Wind-Up Records. Beyond the Horizon is their 3rd album with two tracks written, “Better Than Life” and “Lay in the Road” with Natasha Schneider and Alan Johannes. Check out their song “Pretty Planes”, my favorite off the album so far.
The five members of People in Planes are from Wales. People in Planes is the band’s current name, though hardcore fans may also know the band as Tetra Splendour. I am going to go out on a limb and say it’s Welsh. Not sure of a translation there. I am sure someone out there will leave it in the comments. Hint Hint. they also went by Robots in the Sky. I enjoy People in Planes myself.

Ok, so I’ve been selfishly listening to this CD for a week or so and I must say this is a must have for everyone. My personal favorites off this album are Someday Soon, Too Far Away Tonight, and Angels Can’t Carry Roses. I would describe them as rock and in the same categories as Tom Petty and along the lines of U2. The CD is GREAT to listen to everywhere. In the car, at home, parties, or a relaxing day at the beach with you and that special someone! (Disclaimer: Special someone not provided!)

The Cure
Cox Arena-San Diego, CA
06/03/08
The band from Crawley, Sussex formed in 1976 and they’re still going. This was a show not to be missed. Cox Arena for SDSU was a first time event location for me. As we walked in the opening act was just finishing up. They sounded pretty good, but I didn’t catch their name. As we wove our way to the seats the arena continued to fill in. Since it is a sports arena the seats are at such an angle that you can still see over the top of people heads. That’s always nice since I’m always the lucky one with the tallest person in front of me. Enough about me though….

Apocalyptica
House Of Blues – San Diego, CA
04/13/08
Ahhhhh, the heart and soul of music is definitely the bass instruments and there’s nothing better than feeling that vibration go through your entire body when your at a live show. This particular one I think was the best display of bass fueled music I’ve ever seen. Apocalyptica kicked off their North American tour here in San Diego. The Finnish band trotted out onto the stage with their four electric cellis and found their places on the large skull-like prop seats made to look like a cellos’ body. Cool. These four hot guys (an extra cellist was on hand for the performance and was referred to as Mr. Cool) with their hot base drummer fired the crowd up with several songs from their new album Worlds Collide along with playing some of the best cover versions I have ever heard of Metallica songs that are near and dear to everyone’s hearts. Among the Metallica songs covered were: Seek and Destroy from Kill’em All, Call Of Ktulu and Fight Fire With Fire from Ride The Lightning, Nothing Else Matters and Enter Sandman from the Black Album.

Ani DiFranco
The Orpheum – Los Angeles, CA
04/05/08
Stage presence at a concert, especially at larger venues such as The Orpheum, is what makes or breaks an artist. There was none lacking here. Ani DiFranco’s smaller stature was nothing compared to her impressive talents that flew from the stage. Her obviously fit body oozed energy and drew the audience into each song at times pulling them collectively from their seats.

New Model Army
San Diego, CA – Brick By Brick
03/31/08
No I’m not talking about last weeks Newsweek article. I arrived at this venue with a few friends upon the recommendation of another friend. (A friend who really loves New Model Army, but had a prior commitment and oddly enough could not make it to the show with us.) My companions and I believed ourselves to be fashionably late only to find that we would be waiting outside for about 45 minutes. It wasn’t a hard place to find, but nowadays with GPS there’s not much left that is. Thankfully, since it was a Monday we didn’t have to look too hard for a parking spot especially since this place has no parking whatsoever. When we finally got inside it proved to be a local “dive bar”. Not necessarily a bad place; but definitely not impressive either. The decor, seating, and food were all lacking. (Hint: Don’t come hungry, but if you do they will let you bring in food from a nearby restaurant.)
