Happy 4/20! What better way to commemorate the day than to look back at a concert whose fans enjoy 420: Sublime with Rome.
Today’s Throwback Concert:
Sublime with Rome
Opening Act: The Dirty Heads
Saturday August 14, 2010
Mohegan Sun Arena – Uncasville
About The Tour: Sublime with Rome is a collaboration between Eric Wilson and Bud Gaugh of Sublime and singer/guitarist Rome Ramirez. This new incarnation of “Sublime” launched its first ever tour in 2010 and visited 150 cities world wide. The North American portion of the tour kicked off in Los Angeles at the legendary Hollywood Palladium on, you guessed it, 4/20. 10 years ago today! The first six dates of the tour visited other well known clubs like Denver’s Fillmore and New York’s Roseland Ballroom. But the rest of the tour played much larger venues, like Mohegan Sun Arena on August 14, 2010.
Joining Sublime with Rome on the road was The Dirty Heads, another California reggae rock band promoting their newest hit song Lay Me Down featuring Rome himself on vocals. On the tour, Sublime With Rome played a wide range of music styles including ska punk, reggae, dub, and hip hop. You’ll see in the setlist below their show at Mohegan Sun featured a mix of Sublime classics and covers from such influential artists as Peter Tosh and Bob Marley & the Wailers.
