Summer Concerts

Idols and Superstars

Click here to read about the hot rock festivals going on this summer; click here to check out some Country concerts!

With the end of springtime just days away it's time to give a warm welcome to summer. From lazy days at the beach to BBQs in the backyard, being outside is "in." In our humble opinion, no outdoor activity can match a larger-than-life concert, so Kiwibox is here to break down the biggest music events of the summer.

Kare, I hope Hanson adds a few more tour dates--and I don't see
why they wouldn't. I can't make any of the three cities they have
scheduled now. Boo.
I was bummed too when Kelly canceled her tour too. She's so good.
Daughtry was just here 12 days ago. Mom was happy. She heard more
of them on the radio. She loves them.

But nobody else I love is coming to Kansas City!! I'm bummed.
i want to see Chris Brown!!!
too bad Hanson isn't coming to VA :(
i am going to red hot and boom probley anyone been
i just saw mika.... :) :) :) :) i LOVE that man LOVE LOVE LOVE
LOVE LOVE
What concert was that Beyonce one from the front page of kiwibox?
(the pic of the mag) Cheers
Josh, my darling, you forgot the most exciting tour of all this
summer: Hanson. They have a limited tour to venues in NY and
Boston. :D
JT how can you NOT come to Chicago on ur tour??? Chicago is a huge
city lol
I'm not seeing any of these. I'm not into any of these
bands/artist. It looks like American Idol's coming to my city. And
I think Aly and AJ were here or they are coming here, even though
it's not on the list. The only band that I would want to see is
Bon Jovi. But, their tour doesn't start til Jan. :(
hasnt kelly clarkson's tour been cancelled?
I never thought I'd see Good Charlotte touring w/ JT. Doesn't
quite make any sense, but the show will be interesting. I can't
wait to see my GC boys again. <3
JT is touring with Good Charlotte
Since John Mayer has been touring since early April (outside of
America, but nonetheless) I didn't include him in the article. I
tried to touch only on concerts that start in the beginning stages
of summer. Apologies all around.

But I do agree: See him live! Plus, read his blog. The guy is
FUNNY.

Thanks for reading,

-Josh
these tours need to be coming to england, and soon!
John Mayer is definitely not an artist to miss live. He is
absolutely AMAZING in concert. I've been three times, and this
August, I'll see him live for the 4th time. I can't believe this
list doesn't have JM on it!
you forgot the most important of all...john mayer!! i saw him two
weeks ago and the show was amazing <3
yayyy im gonna see him again on Aug 13th =]
I would love to go to the Idols concert, but I checked the prices
and it's $100+ for nosebleed sections, while better seats are
upwards of $200. I went for the first season and it cost us
$20/ticket.. and we had great seats! So disappointing.
you forgot john mayer. along with many, many others tours way
better than these. this article isn't diverse at all.
I am so siked that Chris Daughtry is coming to my state during his
tour, i LOVE him. He is so Awesome...i also love Pink, her music
is great.
I saw Justin and Pink. Justin doesn't really play my type of
music, but I LOVE Pink! She put on a great, although short, show.
It was cool to watch her swing from the ropes!

Can't wait to catch Corbin Bleu. I'm seeing him at the IL State
Fair and in Chicago. That's going to be exciting.
"Just go. Sell your car. Have your parents mortgage the house for
some extra cash."
The JT & Pink concert was amazing. It was even better when Andy
Samberg performed a special number with Justin near the end (MSG).
So even though I've seen it, I'm finding a way, ANY way to go
again this summer lol.
I was SO bummed when Kelly announced her tour being canceled!
Another concert I'm hoping to make is Rascal Flatts...I love those
guys!
