Last Saturday night proved to be an evening with plenty of hits and misses at the MidFlorida Credit Union Amphitheatre. The hits came in abundance, thanks to the heavyweight acts on the bill; the always solid and reliable Joan Jett and the King of Pop Punk, Billy Idol. The misses came in the way of the many gaffes the outdoor venue committed in expediting the admittance of the thousands of patrons who showed up on the rainy night to relive their Gen X glory days, and revel in the sounds of Jett’s ragged brand of rock ‘n roll and Idol’s pop-rock swagger. See all the photos above, and read my review of Billy Idol and Joan Jett’s Tampa show, too.
