It’s hard to believe but the summer of ’99 was 25 years ago.
Way back when, Y2K fear/excitement was in full force, Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa spent the summer duking it out for dinger supremacy, and Creed routinely topped the charts.
Now, a quarter century later, Scott Stapp and co. are returning to the road for the first time in 10 years to celebrate their late 20th century success on the ‘Summer of ’99 Tour’ with special guests 3 Doors Down, Daughtry, Switchfoot, Tonic, Finger Eleven and more on select dates.
Along the way, the “Arms Wide Open” rockers will make a number of stops in New York and New Jersey.
First up, they swing into Holmdel, NJ’s PNC Bank Arts Center on Wednesday, Aug. 7 and Saratoga Springs, NY’s Broadview Stage at SPAC on Saturday, Aug. 24.
A month later, the rockers are slated to bring their stable of hits to Buffalo, NY’s Darien Lake Amphitheater on Friday, Sept. 27 and Atlantic City, NJ’s Etess Arena at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino on Saturday, Sept. 28.
Finally, Stapp and the gang stomp into NYC’s Madison Square Garden on Friday, Nov. 29 as part of the second leg of their run, which they’re calling the ‘Are You Ready Tour.’
“I feel like I’m as strong as I’ve ever been vocally, and looking forward to sharing the stage with the guys again,” Stapp shared in a statement. “The fans have clearly let us know they feel it’s long overdue. I want to give them what they deserve. I’m ready to bring it.”
If you can’t wait to party like it’s ’99 with Stapp, seats are not only available as soon as today — they’re also shockingly cheap.
At the time of publication, we found some tickets going for as low as $21 before fees on Vivid Seats.
One might even say those are comparable to 1999 prices.
