The String Cheese Incident jams its way into fans’ hearts in Meijer Gardens debut
The String Cheese Incident brought their 2024 Heartland Fall Tour to Oklahoma City Wednesday night, bringing their unique and spirited blend of music to the city’s downtown entertainment venue, The Criterion.
With temperatures still hovering in the low 90s as the band took the stage just before 7pm, excusing their slight tardiness with the explanation they’d been jamiing with their new bluegrass friends for the past three hours (oh, to have a chance to hear that partnership develop).
If you want to get the best experience out of seeing a jam band, often the best way is to catch them on their home turf or at least in a place where they have a stronghold of fans. String Cheese Incident may be from Colorado, but the best place to see them is Oregon.
