Concert goodness coming up in 2010 …

without comments

Found some interesting shows coming to East Tennessee on the touring website Pollstar:

  • Bluegrass band Blue Highway will apparently be a part of the January edition of “Tennessee Shines,” the live radio show/broadcast taking place on the final Wednesday of every month at The Bijou Theatre, 803 S. Gay St. in downtown Knoxville.
  • Collegiate success story/singer-songwriter Robbie Hazen seems set to play 4620 Reinvented, 4620-A Kingston Pike in Knoxville, on Feb. 4.
  • Singer-songwriter Rebecca Pronsky will pull double-duty on Feb. 12 at The Glowing Body (711 Irwin St. in Knoxville) and The Square Room (4 Market Square, downtown Knoxville).
  • “American Idol” contestant Bo Bice is pencilled onto the schedule at Southbound Bar and Grill (106 S. Central St. in Knoxville’s Old City) for Feb. 16.
  • How ’bout some metal at The Valarium/Cider House (940 Blackstock Drive, Knoxville’s Warehouse District)? At the former, on Feb. 23, it’s The Used with Atreyu; at the latter on the next night, check out Skeletonwitch with Howl and Iron Age.
  • It’s not on the band’s website, but the “TBA” beside The Bottle Rockets for Wednesday, Feb. 24 leads me to believe the band will be part of the February bill on “Tennessee Shines.”
  • Hot-blooded! Classic rockers Foreigner (whom we interviewed for the 2008 Foothills Fall Festival) will perform at The Tennessee Theatre, 604 S. Gay St. in downtown Knoxville, on March 15.
  • Big Bill Morganfield, son of blues legend Muddy Waters, will headline the Hard Knox Blues Bash 2 in downtown Knoxville on June 5.
