A trifecta of ’90s bands played Blossom last night on a beautiful midsummer’s evening.  Bay area outfit Train headlined while singer/songwriter Matt Nathanson opened with a forty-minute set of originals.  Canadian poprock Barenaked Ladies came in next with an hour set of hits and a few new cuts from their upcoming record.

Pat Monahan, the only consistent member of Train, told the audience of his roots in Erie, PA and how he spent much of his teen years at Blossom, making the trek from Erie to see his favorite artists.
