Madness at Youtube Theater

Madness

Counted alongside the Specials as one of the pioneering bands of the 70s and 80s ska-revival wave, Madness has spent their celebrated career re-inventing themselves while leaving behind an extraordinary sonic legacy in their wake.

Ostensibly created as one of multi-instrumentalist singer/songwriter Stephin Merritt's side projects for his laconic wit and verve, The Magnetic Fields have proven their strength from their 1991 debut '100,000 Fireflies' to the vast '69 Love Songs'. 2024 sees a new venture, where they'll be exploring songs from the past three decades with fan favorites and hidden gems.

Pearl Jam at Kia Forum

Pearl Jam

The heroic Pearl Jam have proved themselves more than capable of sticking around. Arriving on the music scene as grunge exploded, Seattle ruled the airwaves of 90's college radio with tracks like 'Alive', 'Go', and 'Jeremy'. As America's alt. music heyday faded away, the band stayed above water by playing around with world music, new wave, and folk influences. 2024 sees them embark on a brand new tour in support of the upcoming album 'Dark Matter'. Expect to hear new material along with fan favorites!
