We've seen a couple of false starts when it comes to getting live music into Al Lang Stadium.

First there was a '90s package tour led by TLC, which was supposed to take place last fall, but got canceled shortly beforehand. Then, in January, a show by Flo Rida was also canceled.

But now it looks like we might have a show that'll stick.

Alt-rockers 3 Doors Down, Collective Soul and Soul Asylum are teaming up for a package tour that'll hit Al Lang on July 11. Tickets start at $49.50 and go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday. Click here for details.

Like the other shows, this one is promoted by Bill Edwards, the St. Pete entrepreneur behind the Mahaffey Theater and Tampa Bay Rowdies. Despite the false starts with TLC and Flo Rida, if he can build Al Lang into a reliable outdoor concert venue, it could have a big effect, bringing tours to town that otherwise might not come. Stay tuned to see if this one actually happens.
