Third Eye Blind to Rock the Post Race Oceanfront Concert
Get set to sink your toes into the sand and raise a celebratory toast to Third Eye Blind at the beachfront Post Race Headliner Concert under the stars! Third Eye Blind, led by founding member Stephan Jenkins, first came together in San Francisco in 1997. Since then, they’ve recorded three best-selling albums, including their debut self-titled album, which spawned well-known hits like “Jumper” and “Semi-Charmed Life.” Part of the Verizon Wireless American Music Festival, this Sunday night concert has been a race weekend highlight for the last 12 years of the Rock ‘n’ Roll Virginia Beach Half Marathon and is the perfect finale to cap off this eventful holiday weekend in 2013. All Half Marathon participants and Relay participants get free entry into all American Music Festival concerts over the weekend with their race bib and Mini Marathon participants receive free entry into the Sunday night Headliner Concert with their race bib. Additional tickets for the public will be available online at a later date.
