Dahlbergcentral.com pal Vic writes in with this tidbit:

Just FYI, I know you had complained that there was no concert here in Columbus. Well, now there is. First I noted that the Jackson Browne show had been changed to TBA instead of having a location. I presumed that show would be changed to Columbus. Instead, Jackson Browne was put in the Cincinnati venue and the awkward combo of John Mellencamp and Babyface was moved to Columbus.

So, good news is, there’s a concert. Bad news is, its arguably the weakest lineup of the bunch. Personally, I prefer Mellencamp to Jackson Browne or Bonny Raitt alone, but Babyface doesn’t do anything for me.

But, for my money its still worth the 2+ hour drive to see the Boss in Cleveland.

And, am I the only one who thinks that it might have been a better strategy to stagger these concerts so that instead of focusing all of them in one state on one day there were 6 days of concerts in a row in Ohio, for example? I probably would have gone to at least 4 of the 6 because the lineups are so solid, but as it stands I can’t go see Pearl Jam or Jurassic 5 if I want to see Bruce.

I don’t know whether to laugh or cry. Mellencamp and Usher?
