John Mayer Bradley Center Tickets Milwaukee | Reactions to the New Disk


With the release of John Mayer’s Fourth CD “Battle Studies” his tour will set out this Tuesday November 24th in Ontario Canada. Faithful Milwaukee fans were amped to hear of his March 1st Scheduled date to come to the Bradley Center with Michael Franti & Spearhead. The Bradley center John Mayer tickets go on sale this Saturday, and this will be a new venue for John Mayer. In the past his usual concert venue of choice has been at the Marcus Amphitheater, usually during Summerfest.


It will be a nice change to see Mayer come play an indoor concert with room for a lot more adoring fans. The release of Mayer’s new CD was this past Tuesday the 17th with his most popular first hit single “Who Says” on it. His previous album “Continuum” was a bit of a change from his normal sappy love songs previously on his album “Heavier Things”. “Continuum” had a fun jazzy blues feel to it unlike his other past albums. It seems as though with each new release of another album Mayer spices it up another notch so it will be interesting to see how well this new CD goes over with his fans. His new album is said to be his most adventurous and ominously personalized lyrics yet. With all of that said, will the release of Mayer’s new album and tour bring on a whole new set of fans as well or will his old fans remain faithful to his new ways?

AC/DC Milwaukee Show for Bradley Center


Are you still wondering if the AC/DC show in Milwaukee will ever take place? As of November 11th, there is still no news on a rescheduled date for AC/DC. It has been almost two months since the lead singer Brian wrote a note to his fans explaining that he was diagnosed with an ulcer which made him postpone his tour. Specifically six shows were postponed, phoenix, Las Vegas, Louisville, Kansas City, Des Moines and Milwaukee.

Many AC/DC fans, especially in Milwaukee, have been dying to hear any news about a possible new date for the show. Fans are sitting around anxiously calling the Bradley center and ticket companies to find out what they should do with their tickets. I’ve heard that the Bradley center is working hard to secure a rescheduled date for the concert but still no news! The tour has been moving along smoothly ever since the postponement with their next sold out show in Sao Paulo Brazil on the day after thanksgiving. It looks like their world tour will continue until their last stop In Japan March 16th 2010 which leads fans to believe that the rescheduled date wouldn’t be until at least then. With this long of a delay in a set rescheduled date, will AC/DC ever reschedule for Milwaukee’s show? Or is it doomed to be canceled?

Anthony Bourdain Tickets Riverside Theater Milwaukee


I’m sure fans of world renowned chef Anthony Bourdain never would have thought they’d be able to be up close and personal with him in Milwaukee! Bourdain is recently most known for his show “No Reservations” on the travel channel where he eats just about anything from all around the world. Anthony Bourdain Riverside Theater tickets will will move fast for his Friday January 22nd show. His show will showcase the stories and adventure he has encountered throughout his travels.


An interesting addition to this show for fans is that they can also upgrade to a dinner package at the local restaurants, Bartolotta’s Lake Park Bistro or Bacchus before the show. I’m hoping that this show will be a big hit because it is unlike any shows that come to the Riverside Theater. I’m thinking that once word hits about Bourdain’s visit, Milwaukee will have a new love and interest in him.

Justin Bieber at The Rave in Milwaukee


America's newest heartthrob Justin Bieber plays The Rave in Milwaukee. It seems like all of a sudden the world is screaming for Justin Bieber, a name that was unknown until recently. Young girls, teenagers and parents have found themselves scrounging for tickets to see Justin Bieber at his upcoming concert at the Rave in Milwaukee on November 12th. The Canadian Native began singing three years ago when he was twelve. He was later found by one of international Superstar Usher’s marketing executives which quickly escaladed his career as a singer.
His most popular hits right now are "One Time" and "One Less Lonely Girl.”

Once the announcement hit about Bieber coming to Milwaukee’s Rave it seemed like the whole city was talking about and it and needed to get tickets. Even local radio stations were broadcasting that they would be giving away tickets every hour on the hour. Seating for this concert will be all general admission and a first come first serve bases. My guess is that fans will be lined up hours before the doors open just to get up close and personal with Justin Bieber.

Packers VS Vikings while I sit with my Pabst Theater tickets


Monday October 6th, Colbie Caillat preformed a great concert at the Pabst Theater. From the front row of the balcony, the place looked like a sell-out. This was a big surprise to me, seeing how that her show was competing directly with the big Monday Night Football game featuring the Green Bay Packers and the Minnesota Vikings. This was the long atcipiated matchup, with Favre taking on his old team at his new stadium. Considering the size of the crowd, we may see her live after they scan our Marcus Amphitheater tickets some day.


The age of the crowd was a wide variety. It seemed like half of the crowd was in their late 20’s and 30’s and the other half was young teenagers. I was a little worried about what to wear, whether I should sport my Packer jersey, or a nice girlie outfit for the concert. Seeing how I had hoped to catch a part of one of the most exciting games of the season after the concert, I decided to go with the Packer Jersey and show my support for the team. I actually had a few friends pass on the show at the last minute because they said they couldn’t miss Favre taking on the Packers.
Surprisingly, Colbie was the first one to bring up the big game after performing her first song, “Begin Again” and told us she had been watching the game from back stage. She thanked the crowd for coming out for her concert even though she knew such a big football game was going on at the same time. Little by little I began to notice more and more packer gear worn by fans and that I wasn’t the only one concerned about missing the game. Many of the other fans around me were opening their cell phones and checking for the score updates throughout the concert.
Originally I had planned to leave the concert early at the packer’s half time but because there were two opening acts, Trevor Hall and Howie day, I knew I couldn’t leave at that time. Though many people, myself included, seemed very frustrated that Colbie didn’t start performing until 9pm, It was totally worth the wait.


Her voice was beautiful and her music and lyrics are heartfelt. By the time the concert was over there were only 10 minutes left in the game, but I definitely do not regret staying until her last song! She put on a great show and I was very impressed. All in all, the packers loss was a huge disappointment to me but attending the Colbie Caillat concert on the same night in some little way, made up for it. I will see you at the Marcus Amphitheater next time Colbie.
