 If they were playing in this area, I'd be there.

admit it, you and sonick are just hoping Kate Hudson and this chick show up

Sonic hearts the Counting Crows, the Black Crows, and CCR.
 
 What I don't understand is why he doesn't love him some real Americana, instead of the watered down version that the two Crow bands play.

i dont like the Counting Crows anymore, their first two albums were good, their 3rd was ok.  thier last couple or whatever, arent cool.
 
    as for the watered down part.....when someone doesnt REALLY love a genre...they tend to like the watered down bands of that genre.
   
    like a very casual hip=hop fan might like Outkast, Jurassic 5, Black Eyed Peas....when in reality, these bands are definitely watered down compared to a lot of true hip-hop fans.
 
    Electronic music fans would say the same of Crystal Method or Fatboy Slim
 
    you get it....
 
   and i dont listen to the Crowes anymore, but i was shaking my money maker back in 1990 or whatever and  it just seems like a cool show...it was only $40 man....its not like i mortgaged my house for these tickets.

Black Crowes = Watered Down Americana
 Keane = Watered Down Brit Pop

[sonickteam2]

ohhhh, i forgot.  Markie only likes bands that sound completely original and have NO recognizable musical influences.  gotcha.  

[Bags]

I fully admit to enjoying the watered-down versions of genres I'm not a big fan of -- Outkast and Fat Boy Slim are good examples.  And Madonna's my pop fix.
 
 But for me, I wouldn't go to a Black Crowes show if I got free tickets...  Counting Crows, show is free -- probably.

even with that logic
 
  at least  Americana > Brit Pop
     so     Black Crowes > Keane

I'd go if the Crowes were free and having a local show. Crows - no way. They suck live.
 I saw the Crowes back in '90. They said "hello" to the crowd, naming the wrong city. "Huh? OH. Where are we? Oops..." straight into the next song. Ah, nothing like the Crowes in a southern college gymnasium.

Take earplugs.  When I saw the Crowes they were  LOUD.
