311

Charlottesville Pavilion
October 24, 7:00pm
$35

Far too many bands make this claim, but 311 were legitimately hard to pin down back when “Down” briefly made them the golden boys of alt-rock in the mid-90’s. They were heavier than most of the other bands on the same radio rotations, had experimental edges way more far-flung than the post-grunge bands they competed with, and even displayed a bit of what a white dude who loves Sublime might have mistakenly considered reggae. Within a few years, though, a ready-made capsule summary emerged when they became ragingly successful as a frat-boy fave. They’re again a bit harder to put in a box now that most of those kids have long since graduated, but if you’re looking for true-believer fans these days, the entry level jobs at an investment bank of your choice is as promising a starting point as you could reasonably hope for.
