Train, Bon Jovi on Shanna's summer concert list

Kevin & Kathy and Shanna were among the crowd at the Jones Beach Theater on July 23rd to see Train, the California pop rock band in the midst of its "Mermaids of Alcatraz" tour. Shanna writes: "Gavin DeGraw and The Script were the opening acts. They were both amazing and it was like we had already seen a full show before Train even started."

"Train had a great performance and we all agree that it was one of the best concerts that we have ever seen."

But wait, there's more!

"On Saturday, Rick and I went to MetLife Stadium to see Bon Jovi. We were able to tailgate before the show, which was a lot of fun. Bon Jovi was great and played to a packed stadium for three hours straight. It was really cool to see such a great show in a stadium with so many people."
