Counting Crows/Maroon 5 v. Against Me!/Ted Leo

I have a tough decision to make in the next few hours: Do I attend the Counting Crows/Maroon 5 show at Ford Amphitheatre or the Against Me!/Ted Leo (I interviewed Leo here) gig at Jannus Landing?

Both shows take place this evening. I've seen all the bands play before except Maroon 5, my least fave of the bunch. Counting Crows (pictured) blew me away at the Tampa Bay Performing Arts Center way back in 1997 (Fiona Apple opened) and I haven't seen 'em since.

Against Me! rocked at Warped Tour this summer. Decisions. Plus, I live in Tampa. That's a factor, too. Another solid option is Building the State at New World Brewery which also goes down tonight. Well, check back later today and should have my mind made up. What gig would you attend?

Against Me!, Adam Lee, Gwar, We the Kings and more in Music Week.

Building the State performs at New World Brewery in Ybor City.
