Christian music news: Christian music news: Summer concerts music to our ears

Latest christian music: Those are just some of the performers coming to New Jersey this summer. If there is any place in America that offers more opportunities to see popular musical acts, we've yet to hear about it. Once again this summer, the bounty seems limitless.
Latest christian music: Although the ticket prices for many of the concerts seem to have ignored the fact we are in a recession — many artists these days apparently are worried about paying their bills as well — it has prompted a tidal wave of groups on tour. With record sales slumping, many acts, new and old, are compensating by hitting the lonely road so many of them bemoan in their songs. That's music-lovers' good fortune.
In Monmouth and Ocean counties alone, the choices this summer are endless. Name acts again will appear on the marquees at PNC Banks Arts Center, Count Basie Theater, Paramount Theater, Convention Hall, Stony Pony, Great Auditorium, Six Flags Great Adventure and BlueClaws Stadium.
Among those who will be performing at the Shore: Beach Boys, Motley Crue, Oak Ridge Boys, Creed, the Drifters, Fabian, Lee Ann Rimes, Nine Inch Nails, Rascal Flatts, The Fray, Elvis Costello, Frankie Avalon, Counting Crows, Frank Valli and the Four Seasons, .38 Special, Asia, Melissa Etheridge, Yes, Little Feat, Bobby Rydell, Poison and George Thoroughgood.
Also, Styx, Tommy James and the Shondells, Snoop Dogg, Kid Rock, Lynyrd Skynyrd, REO Speedwagon, Southside Johnny, Weezer, Dream Theater, Cheap Trick, Melissa Etheridge, Peter Frampton, John Mellencamp, Incubus, Crosby, Stills & Nash, The Pretenders, ZZ Top, Loggins & Messina, Felix Cavaliere and The Rascals, The Smithereens, New Riders of the Purple Sage, Moe and John Cafferty.
If you want to broaden your choices, you can always hit the casinos in Atlantic City, the Susqehanna Bank Center in Camden, the Izod Center and Giants Stadium in the Meadowlands, the New Jersey Performing Arts Center in Newark, the Bergen Performing Arts Center, Wellmont Theater in Montclair and the Mayo Center for Performing Arts in Morristown.
