Concerts: Aerosmith, Marilyn Manson, Doves

Published 9:54 am Wednesday, April 22, 2009

While several big shows go on sale this week — Aerosmith with ZZ Top, Marilyn Manson with Slayer, Elvis Costello — the one I’m guessing will sell out the fastest is at the small, newly renovated Crocodile.

The club will host the British group Doves on May 20. The group, which just released its very well received new album, “Kingdom of Rust,” is also playing Sasquatch this May. The show is a pre-Sasquatch party. Expect tickets to go fast.

Even closer to home, Chateau Ste. Michelle Winery in Woodinville has announced its summer schedule.

The 13 shows include the following headliners: Tears for Fears, Steve Miller Band, the Moody Blues, Lyle Lovett and His Band, KWJZ Smooth Festival, Jackson Browne, Elvis Costello and the Sugarcanes, John Legend with India.Arie, Diana Krall, Chris Isaak, Gipsy Kings, Bonnie Raitt with Taj Mahal, and Pink Martini.
