Gin BLOSSOMS/BLUES Traveler with Spin Doctors at Synovus Bank Amphitheater at Chastain Park

CRITIC'S PICK:
Sat., Sept. 5
Blues Traveler, Gin Blossoms, Spin Doctors, Synovus Bank Amphitheatre at Chastain Park - MTV doesn't play music videos any longer, and hasn't for a long while. But when they did - think early to mid-'90s - these three pop/rock bands were in heavy rotation. They all have relatively new albums that try, sometimes successfully, to replicate their early sound. And members of all three bands have joined forces on a recent single, a remake of the '60s hit "Indiana Wants Me," which they will likely perform together after their individual sets. Other than the frontmen for each band, it's hard to say how many original members remain. But they'll play the hits everyone wants to hear, and a few new tunes, with a pleasant time guaranteed for all. - Hal Horowitz
