There are three huge concert tours taking place this year: Green Day's The Saviors Tour celebrating Dookie's 30 year anniversary and American Idiot's 20 year anniversary, Weezer's The Voyage to the Blue Planet Tour playing their Blue Album in full, and Oasis' Definitely Maybe Tour for their 30 year anniversary of their debut album. My brother early birthday gifted me tickets to the first concert, which will also redeem two missed opportunities to see The Smashing Pumpkins live. All of these tours are nonsense if you did not listen to alternative rock music in the 90s. As my wife put it, "I didn't grow up in Burlingame." But that's okay cause you can still sit next to me while I enjoy Oasis' famous Knebworth concert on Youtube.
Anyway, 2024 seems to be all about anniversaries commemorating albums from decades ago. The fact that I am right around the corner of turning four decades old shows why these concerts are so meaningful to me. Here we go, midlife!
