San Bernardino welcomes its share of bands that are on tour, and when they make their stop at the San Manuel Amphitheater, be ready for a great show. This entertainment venue has been a longstanding live music benchmark in the community, and while it isn't the fanciest or most polished place to see a show, the rugged and somewhat rough surroundings only add to the experience of seeing your favorite rock band take the stage and rattle the walls a bit.
