Summer Time Rock-n-Roll in Costa Rica

Lots of great shows are lined up this summer to hit the stages of Costa Rica….there will be no shortage of entertainment of all types. Rumors have started that the Red Hot Chili Peppers may be scheduling a concert in the near future, but before you hold your breath on that one, why not enjoy one of these other gems?

One of Argentina’s rock legends, and two metal mainstays will be lighting up the lives of the local people.

Fito Paez, from Argentina, known for some of the best selling albums, including “Circo Beat” and “El Amor Despues Del Amor”, will play the Melico Salazar theatre on June 25th at 8pm. Tickets are on sale at the music store, Vertigo, in san Jose.

Thrash metal band Slayer, will be playing the Ricardo Saprissa stadium on June 17th. Metal shows have dominated the Costa Rican music scene in recent months, and appear to continue to have a hold on the local scene.

The National Stadium will be hosting none other than Judas Priest, forerunners of the metal movement of the ‘80’s, on September 27th and they will be joined by none other than Whitesnake.

So if you’re in the area and feel like getting you head banging on….you’ll find yourself with no shortage of activities. Pura Vida roqueros!
