Every once in a while I become so excited about using Twitter to share news that I’ve learned about that I forget that there are many of our readers who still don’t use the service. So here’s the 411: The Birmingham News is reporting that Coldplay has announced a May 18 concert atthe state’s largest outdoor music venue, the Verizon Wireless Music Center at Oak Mountain. Tickets will go on sale next Monday morning at 10 a.m. via this link and LiveNation’s toll-free number. According to their website, it will be the band’s first show in The Magic City since January 2003.

Counting Crows/Maroon 5 play Birmingham
Terminal music photog Tony Diliberto took one for the team Tuesday night while Whitney was sick. Hey, wait… sounds like Tony got the better deal, by shooting CC/M5 live at Verizon Wireless Music Center in Pelham. He got some amazing shots and had this to say about the live performance:
“This was a great show. I have been a Counting Crows fan since the early 90s. It was especially nice to be 3 feet from them. Maroon 5 played a variety of favorites and the intensity was outstanding.”
Venture on over to Tony’s page on SmugMug to check out the pictures from both bands.
