It’s hard to believe, but August and Everything After (the debut album from '90s alternative rock wunderband Counting Crows) is turning 25. To celebrate, frontman Adam Duritz & Co. are heading out across America and meeting fans under the stars as part of a summer tour that hits more than two dozen of the country’s best outdoor amphitheatres. This one happening as part of Al Lang Stadium’s live concert experiment finds Counting Crows joined by Live, which had no clue how un-Googleable its moniker would be when it released its own debut album (Mental Jewelry) in 1991.

Counting Crows w/Live. Tues. July 31, 6:30 p.m. $29.50. Al Lang Field, St. Petersburg. themahaffey.com.
