Interesting article in the DE on the lack of top-level performing artists in Carbondale. While there is a lot of interest in Sheryl Crow (and the CDB too for that matter), Walkers Bluff will have to sell over 800 tickets to cover the cost of the singer's fee. I see the SIUC Arena has no-one scheduled to perform for the foreseeable future and, while Travis Tritt appeared at Shyrock last February, nothing is scheuled there for over the summer either.
I guess folks ought to take advantage of the numerous fine musicians playing locally, and quit whining that they didn't get to hear some has-been butcher their hit single from 10 years ago on yet another crass "buying myself a boat" tour.
