Upcoming Summer Events in Albany!
Jul 7 2009, 12h53
A couple big events heading our way in the next few weeks. There's a little something for everyone.
On Sunday (July 12), the 103.1 Big Day Out comes to SPAC, headlined by The Offspring, Sum 41, and Staind, along with a bunch of other bands. If you're more into the pop rock/emo/electro scene, the What Happens in Vegas tour hits Valentines the same night, with The Cab, The Secret Handshake, and some other bands from the desert you've probably never heard of.
Next Thursday (July 16) is the eighth Camp Bisco festival at the Indian Lookout Country Club in Mariaville, with nearly 50 acts. Sound Tribe Sector 9, Chromeo, and The Orb head up the electronic acts, but there's an impressive number of jam, folk, reggae, and other acts; The Disco Bisguits, Dr. Dog, Damian Marley, Flying Lotus, Nas, even local favorites Phantogram.
If you're looking for something a little harder, next Friday (July 17) the Summer Slaughter 3 Tour hits Northern Lights, with Necropahgist, Ensiferum, Darkest Hour, and a bunch of other bands who sound like they eat kittens.
Of course there are plenty of smaller events in the meantime; Tomorrow (July 8) is the Second WEXT Birthday Party at Valentines with Sgt. Dunbar & the Hobo Banned, Railbird, and Sean Rowe. This Friday (July 10) reach for your revolver and catch Mission of Burma at Pearl Street in Northampton, and locally U-Melt and the McLovins return to Rev Hall in Troy. On Saturday (July 11) a Journey tribute band hits Rev Hall, and In This Moment and Aiden are at Northern Lights. If you miss Camp Bisco on the 16th, Reel Big Fish, The English Beat, and the Supervillains have a show at Northern Lights. And next Saturday (July 18) Jucifer and Bone Parade come to Valentines with a couple of other bands. Plenty to keep you busy in the next few weeks.
