Watch out, Dallas. It’s about to get hot. Real hot. Any day now. Don’t pretend it won’t happen. When it comes, and you’re sitting on the patio getting burned to a crisp by the sun, thinking about how all you want out of life is air conditioning, you should also think about going to a concert. There will be plenty of them to check out in the high heat months to come. In fact, this summer is going to be stacked.
Many of these shows take place on the same day as each other, which is horrible because you’re going to have to make a decision. But just look at all these names coming our way: The Rolling Stones, Courtney Barnett, Bowling For Soup, Action Bronson, the Geto Boys, Allen Stone, Jodeci, Best Coast, D’Angelo and the Vangaurd, Tyler, the Creator and Romeo Santos. That’s just maybe a quarter of the best shows happening in June.
To make things a little easier for you scheduling (and budgeting) needs, we’ve compiled a list of the best shows happening this summer. Here’s what you’ve got to look forward to.
