If you want to avoid the scalpers and Craigslist scams, consult this handy guide to the shows soon to go on sale …

A picnic-perfect show: Sheryl Crow with James Blunt and Toots & the Maytals at the Mann Center on August 2nd. $49.50-$85. On sale this Saturday, 10 a.m.
Love ’em or hate ’em (I fall into the latter category) Steely Dan does the Borgata on June 27th. Ticket prices not published yet, but you can bet it will be expensive, and it will sell out, just like everything else at the Borgata. UPDATED: Tickets are $75 to $125. On sale this Saturday, 10 a.m.
