    in my humble opinion concerts at Orange Peel these days are pretty crappy – 20% cover bands, 20% heavy metal, 40% crap pop/electronica and then some good bands…

    Each to their own but the quality of artists in my opinion has gone down….when Ben harper sells out in 2hrs that says it all, “oh a good band from 20yrs ago is coming, get tickets, its something decent”

    blah blah blah Charles Bradley would have been the best concert this year but unfortunately he is dealing with illness – keep strong Charles. I think it’s just Asheville in general the last 5yrs, i remember the first moogfest, now that was a year!
