Tempting. I like two out of the three bands; and I suppose Train’s probably cool, since they hang out with Jewel and Blues Traveler. Easiest for me to go up to NJ for it, though.

So. I am not a pop fan. Given a choice, I’ll go see blues, outlaw country, classic rock, or metal long before I’ll (willingly) go see a pop band.
My wife, on the other hand, has dragged me to see any number of pop bands over the years. Most of them were just insipid and awful and made me want to jump off a bridge. I will not go see GooGoo Dolls again for anything less than paying off my mortgage, but two bands she has taken me to see have surprised me. Rob Thomas puts on a very good show, and I would happily go see Train again. I think you’ll have fun.
I am once again reminded that the period between the labels consolidating ownership of radio, and the rise of the streaming services, was a musical wasteland.
Not because of these bands, I liked Blues Traveler in particular, and Jewel was at least doing something different than everything else on the radio. (I’d probably have liked her more if I hadn’t been friends with someone who grew up with her, and had stories that conflicted with her public persona. Let’s just say he wasn’t a fan.)
