Dashboard Confessional – Feb. 18
You may have heard Dashboard Confessional on “Spiderman 2” or seen them promoted through their deal with Myspace. If you have, you know it’s raw and unhindered emotion, and not just publicity that makes this act so lastingly popular. But you don’t have to be emo to enjoy a few painfully honest break-up tracks from songwriting wizard Chris Carrabba and company. All ages.
Tickets: $25.00 advance/ $28.00 day of show
Venue: Wonder Ballroom, Portland – visit www.wonderballroom.com for more information or call 503-284-8686. Tickets may be purchased at www.ticketmaster.com.
Colbie Caillat – March 2
Her poppy vocals and catchy sway entertain radio-pop listeners, but it’s her brave and believable songwriting that has earned rhythm and blues singer Colbie Caillat the title of ‘all-American girl next door.’ She is currently up for four Grammy awards, including three for collaborative work with Jason Mraz and Taylor Swift. All ages.
Tickets: $22 advance/ $25 at the door.
Venue: McDonald Theatre – Eugene – visit www.mcdonaldtheatre.com for tickets and more information or call 541-345-4442, ext 2.
