Dubai Sound City

I'm impressed that bands that I actually like are starting to show up in Dubai. It's nothing short of a miracle, considering the fact that when we first moved here, the only concert was Cliff Richards. (!)

The second I found out about Dubai Sound City, I started trying to figure out how to get tickets--and within a few days, had a 3-day pass to see tons of awesome bands!

Unfortunately, a few big name acts didn't show so many people (myself included) were disappointed. I'm not sure what happened with all of them--one band for sure had visa problems, some bands had members who were "sick" (but apparently also having some tax problems/couldn't leave the country) and who knows what else. However, I did get to see a few amazing shows and I'm still glad I bought the 3 day pass. Notable acts: Human League (30 years on-they are still awesome!) & Alphabeat
