Central Jersey right on the coast. Junction of Route 9 and route 37. 3 miles from the ocean. Seaside heights is a big summer attraction. You guys will love the area. It has a boardwalk with food stands games and rides plus the beach. If you go try to spend a couple of days. Great summer beach resort.

Avril Lavigne is AWESOME live!!

OMG!!! That is so awesome that Carrie and Lifehouse are going to be sharing the same stage. I love both of them, and I just saw Lifehouse in concert a week ago at my school. Amazing concert, those guys really rock.

is lifehouse opening for a leg of the tour, or just that night'/?

^^ It's a one off thing.

this is like a music festival, where there are many musical acts. carries the headliner since shes the last performer for the day. Lifehouse, Push Play, The Lost Trailers, and Mr. Ray are all performing before Carrie, so you could consider all of them opening for her. it isnt like Josh Turner touring with her from city to city and going right before her. personally, i dont consider these acts opening for her, but i can see why some will say that
