Concert Update: "Idols" Live, Free Pat McGee, Josh Ritter Goes Pops (Kinda)

Do you miss Chikezie and Ramiele? Well, don't fret the "American Idol" concert tour comes to the DCU Center August 9. Ticket prices are TBA but they go on-sale Saturday May 17 at noon through Ticketmaster.

Contrary to that headline, Pat McGee is not imprisoned. But his band is giving a free show at Bill's Bar next Tuesday at 8 pm. It's part of a beer-sponsored concert series. Although there's no cost, you do have to RSVP and be 21 to gain admission. Check out the info here.

Josh Ritter is teaming up with members of the Boston Pops and former U.S. poet laureate Robert Pinsky for a special performance at Symphony Hall on June 27. Tickets for the performance go on sale today and may be purchased through the BSO's website or by calling 617-266-1200 or 888-266-1200.
