Gavin Rossdale, House of Blues, May 25: "You know that Seinfeld episode about muffin tops? Solo songs = the stumps. 'Comedown' = muffin top." Brandon K. Hernsberger

Bob Log III, Meridian, May 27: "About a quarter to midnight Wednesday, Aftermath sent the following text message: 'Somebody's top's coming off tonight, and it ain't gonna be mine.' Log's pants had long since come off, leaving the Tucson one-man band clad in his signature motorcycle helmet, gold lame bodysuit and no underwear - it's not like Aftermath was really looking, but it was pretty obvious." Chris Gray

No Doubt, Paramore, The Sounds, Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion, May 31: "Did we mention how feminine this show was? The crowd had to have been three-fourths of the lady persuasion, with a smattering of fathers and erstwhile punk rockers dotting the crowd." Craig Hlavaty
