Fans of jam band icon Dave Matthews, Canadian rock legends Rush and country rock star Blake Shelton rejoice: Tickets for these performers’ Jones Beach Theater concerts this summer go on sale soon.
The early draft of the 2013 concert season lineup started taking shape when dates were set for British boy band One Direction, British-American classic rock quartet Fleetwood Mac and the mayor of Margaritaville, Jimmy Buffet and the Coral Reefer Band. The venue usually announces much of its lineup at once in the spring when more dates are set. The schedule is a good sign that the waterfront theater, which was flooded during Superstorm Sandy, is being repaired.
