Milwaukee's Music

Concerts in Milwaukee are ongoing, but during the last week in June and the first week of July, Summerfest takes over the city. Starting in 1968, Summerfest soon labeled itself the world’s largest music festival. Apparently, a title verified by the Guinness World Records in 1999. The festival is held at the Henry Maier Festival Park on seven stages. Kate and I were only able to catch the end of it last year so we are looking forward to enjoying more music this year.

Some notable artists at Summerfest:

Rascal Flatts – I list them because I am going to this show with Kate and a few other residents (girls). There might be another guy coming along.
Alicia Keys
John Mayer – Who is just got selected by the shuffle feature on my iTunes. “Covered in Rain” from Any Given Thursday. Good song.
Tom Petty
The Police with Elvis Costello – So want to go to this show.
Counting Crows
Gnarls Barkley
BoDeans – Definitely catching these guys.
Dashboard Confessional
Less Than Jake
Kansas
Coheed and Cambria
The Roots
The Wailers

…and at the Wisconsin State Fair…

Boyz II Men – What the hell?
