Big & Rich opens summer concert series Saturday

ANAHEIM -- The Angels will host four postgame concerts this summer, in conjunction with Budweiser, the team announced on Wednesday.

Multi-platinum recording group Big & Rich will kick it off this Saturday, after the Angels play host to the Pirates. They'll be followed by Billy Currington on Saturday, July 20, after a game against the A's. The other concerts will be part of a two-night "Flashback Weekend" during the Astros series, featuring Queen Nation on Friday, Aug. 16, and Rain -- a Beatles tribute band -- on Saturday, Aug. 17.

The Angels will wear retro uniforms during "Flashback Weekend," sporting the 1972-88 unis on Aug. 16 and the 1966-70 ones on Aug. 17. Those will be available for auction on Angels.com in September.
