Fox Oakland announces its first concerts!

Social Distortion, BB King, and The Black Keys will all be breaking in this historic venue's second coming

The folks at Berkeley's Another Planet Entertainment have sent out a great Happy New Year gift to East Bay music lovers today: announcing the first show bookings for the fabulous Fox Oakland, which is opening in February. I can not wait to see legendary rockers Social Distortion (Feb. 6) in this historic venue, the night after the Fox's opening gala. Michael Franti and Spearhead, B.B. King, and the Black keys are also booked—click here for more information about upcoming shows. And look for a story about the Fox in the February issue of Diablo—I've taken a couple of hard hat tours and this place is simply incredible—we're about to have the most magnificent live music venue anywhere, right here in the East Bay.

I did hear about this and it makes me sick! Check back online soon and we'll hve a blog up with photos from the aftermath of the riots. One of Diablo's interns lives on that block and she got some amazing pictures.

Thanks for the comments!

Major bummer. I just bought tickets to see "Video Games Live" here on February 28. Looking forward to seeing the theater! :o)

That sounds like its going to be a cool show. Meanwhile, as they are sweeping up the broken glass at the Fox, make sure to rent The King of Kong
