Last Summer on Earth Tour – Barenaked Ladies, Blues Traveler, Big Head Todd and the Monsters, Cracker: Raleigh Ampitheater, Raleigh, NC 7/12/12

Bryan Rodgers July 23, 2012 No Comments

If you attended college in the 90’s, there’s a good chance that the bands comprising the Last Summer On Earth Tour could be heard emanating from a dorm room or apartment near you, if not from your own. There’s an album’s worth of hits to be culled from the catalogs of Cracker, Big Head Todd And The Monsters, Blues Traveler, and Barenaked Ladies, and nearly every tune was trotted out at the Raleigh tour stop. With three H.O.R.D.E. Tour alumni present, that heady time was reminisced over by more than a few attendees. But though the crowd was of a certain age and the music was nostalgic, half of the bands actually performed recent material.
