Show Reviews

Geographer continued their North American tour and received a true mid-western welcome from the Chicago crowd. Idlehands were the first of three acts to perform at Lincoln Hall on Tuesday night. This atmospheric rock band did a great job at opening up the night. The San Diego natives put their …

I got a sneak peak at Surfer Blood’s new album 1,000 Palms this weekend when they preformed at The Camel in Richmond, VA. The venue was almost the perfect size; slightly too big for the crowd, but far too small for Surfer Blood. The band lit the building up with …

Chicago knew they were in for a treat the moment it was announced that Europe and Black Star Riders were coming to the House of Blues as part of their co-headlining tour, and they were certainly not disappointed. Black Star Riders came out and set the tone for what was …

If you missed Red Bull Sound Select Presents: Nashville Friday night at The Mercy Lounge, just go ahead and kick yourself. The show packed in three stellar Nashville bands into one massively rocking good time! Kansas Bible Company opened, followed by a band from my little home town, The Kingston …

Well if you showed up to The High Watt last Thursday night expecting to see the same ole Joe Pug of five or six years ago, you were probably disappointed. Not that the new inversion isn’t good, in a lot of ways it is a lot more fun than the …

Post-hardcore Utah natives, The Used brought a formidable show to NJ’s Starland Ballroom on April 21st. The band is touring North America in support of their sixth studio album Imaginary Enemy (April 2014), and they’ve brought on a diverse bill of supporting bands that have intensified the tour’s flavor. With a roster including California’s The Eeries, UK’s Marmozets and New York’s Every …

There was a palpable buzz of excitement in the air in the minutes leading up to Nightwish’s performance. It’s understandable – New York City metal fans haven’t seen the band since September 2012, at a time when ex-vocalist Anette Olzon was still with the group.  In that time, Nightwish has …

9Electric rolling into town with the #SickTalkTour. For being the first time seeing 9Electric I was excited. Getting to sit down with Mikey, Thunderwood & Micah in the RV for an indepth interview to get to know more about them, their music and what they have planned for the rest …

British rock band, Bush, is two months deep into a US headlining tour in support of their latest (and sixth) studio album Man On The Run. Standing in the midst of Sayreville NJ’s Starland Ballroom, which was palpable with a giddy anticipation, I admit–I was definitely sharing in that atmosphere …

It’s been less than two months since I last saw Frank Iero perform. At the time, he was rocking out alongside local punk-rock legends, The Bouncing Souls at Asbury Park’s The Stone Pony. In my review I mentioned the stunted 40-minute opening set had been too short–merely a captivating taste …
