Throwback Concert: Summerland Tour at Mohegan Sun Arena 2012

The 1990s produced some great alternative rock bands: Everclear, Gin Blossoms, Lit, Marcy Playground and Sugar Ray are just a handful of bands that rocked the decade.

In the summer of 2012 all those bands came together on one epic tour called “Summerland.” We were very lucky to see this tour as it came to Connecticut that year.
