Eve 6
September 3, 2010
TICKETS
Eve 6 (sometimes typeset as EVE 6) is best known for their singles "Inside Out", "Leech", and the slow anthem "Here's to the Night" . The band originally consisted of Max Collins (vocals, bass), Jon Siebels (guitar), and Tony Fagenson (drums). [1] The band formed in 1995 in La Crescenta, CA first as Yakoo, then Eleventeen; the name Eve 6 was only adopted later. Their first gig was at Eagle's Coffee Pub in North Hollywood. Eleventeen had secured a recording contract with RCA while Collins and Siebels were still in high school.
The band's final name is a reference to The X-Files. Fagenson, a fan of the show, suggested the name after seeing an episode entitled "Eve". The episode featured genetically engineered characters known as "Eves," which were portrayed by Harriet Sanson Harris. One of these genetically engineered characters, named "Eve #6," made a remark about biting a guard's eyeball, which Fagenson thought merited "Eve 6" as a band name.
"Inside Out," the leadoff single from Eve 6's self-titled debut, became a number one modern rock hit in 1998, ousting the Goo Goo Dolls' "Iris" from the chart-topping position. "Leech" also proved to be a popular single, and Eve 6's record went platinum as a result. Two years later, the band returned with Horrorscope, which went gold on the strength of "Promise" and the power ballad "Here's to the Night," which was also a Top 40/MTV smash.
The band broke up for a while, but Collins and Fagenson were joined by a new guitarist Matt Bair and are now working on their fourth studio album, their first since reuniting in 2007. A song "lost and found" can be heard being recorded on their newly running web site.

 Sawyer Brown

TICKETS
To date, Sawyer Brown has released twenty studio albums, of which three have been certified gold in the United States for sales of 500,000 copies. More than fifty of their singles have entered the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Songs charts, including three Number One singles.
The group took the name "Sawyer Brown" after Sawyer Brown Road, the street where they rehearsed. Before they became well known, they played up to five sets a night, six days a week, until they auditioned for the TV show Star Search in 1983. They auditioned just to get the videotape to promote the band, yet ended up winning the $100,000 grand prize and a recording contract.
The band signed with Capitol Records (in a joint partnership with Curb Records) and scored a Top 20 hit with their first single, "Leona". That success was quickly followed by their first #1 hit, "Step That Step". The band had accumulated enough hits for a Greatest Hits package by 1990, and were very successful on the touring circuit.
"The Walk", the final single off the Buick album, is said to be the turning point for the group – as they adopted a “ballad” style. Following "The Walk", the band scored a number of Top 5 and Top 10 hits --- including 2 more Billboard #1s "Some Girls Do", and "Thank God for You".
General Admission prices start at $43 for General Admission seats, and $86 for VIP passes. VIP pricing includes: water, event t-shirt, special entrance, energy drinks, gated areas, lounges, autographs & more.
TIP: Get your tickets early as prices increase dramatically the week of, and then the day of the event.
