It was another beautiful fall night in Nashville as I headed downtown to the best venue in the music city, the Brooklyn Bowl. The anticipation I felt going into this evening was at an all-time high as two of my favorite bands would be performing, The Vacant Lots and The Black Angels. The Vacant Lots […]
I got to sit down with my friend Syrus Peters. Not only does this man kill it on the drums, he also has years of dedication in the music industry as a band manager, stage manager and a very talented musician. He resides in beautiful Cocoa Beach, Florida — the land of zen and waves. […]
When Dropkick Murphys announced their new album, This Machine Still Kills Fascists, Ian and I were beyond excited. We love Dropkick Murphys! Then, we heard that it was going to be entirely acoustic and we thought, “This is going to be something special!” Anyone familiar with Dropkick Murphys should not have been surprised that a […]
Subarashī! That means ‘amazing’ in Japanese, by the way and is one word we could use to describe the night in Oakland, California on Wednesday, October 19th, 2022. Thousands of fans lined up around the famous Fox Theater hours before the doors opened, many wearing ONE OK ROCK shirts. It was very cool to see […]
It was a beautiful day in Virginia for the second day of BRRF. As we were walking by the tour buses to the gate, I was thinking to myself, “Candlebox is playing, so maybe we’ll see them!” Sure enough, I look up and see guitarist Island Styles and lead vocalist Kevin Martin of Candlebox hanging […]

Fans packed into The Armory in Minneapolis to watch Bring Me The Horizon, one of the biggest bands in heavy music right now, play a headlining show on October 12th, 2022. If there is one thing that is always true about Bring Me The Horizon, it’s that they bring an insane lineup of openers on […]
A Day To Remember brought an incredible show with a stacked lineup during their Just Some More Shows Tour stop at Gallagher Square in Petco Park in San Diego, California.

After a year-long wait, we finally got to go back to our favorite fest — Blue Ridge Rock Festival! The fest was held at its new home at the Virginia International Raceway. After last year’s debacle, we were anxious to see the new improvements. If you didn’t read our recaps from last year, here’s the […]
After all that was happening in the entertainment industry over the last couple years, we are finally able to attend all the postponed shows that got pushed back by COVID. There is a special feeling when you hold your tickets for almost three years and the day finally arrives. To see not just a band […]
I was recently introduced to this outstanding Canadian girl band called The Beaches. They are currently on tour with Hotel Fiction. It was my first time at Pearl Street and it instantly became one of my favorite local venues. Its rustic aesthetic and outdoor bar are some of my favorite things about it. Both bands […]
In their eager return after music’s big pause, Alexisonfire brought Fall of Troy to shred at SOMA San Diego. With a simple two-band set, us 30 somethings (which make up the majority of the fan base) were super thrilled to basically have our cake and eat it, too. When Fall of Troy took the stage, […]
Nothing More played a killer show at The Wiltern in Los Angeles on October 12th, 2022. And, boy, do I mean it. From start to finish, the band hooked the audience with their impressive sound and stage presence — no one was left idly standing by! Opening up with classics mixed with new jams, Nothing […]
I walked into the Troubadour a little too early… One of the first acts had just wrapped soundcheck and the entire room was buzzing with crew. Firmly in the center of the room was Linda Perry (of 4 Non Blondes), directing a film crew with the angles she wanted for the evening. She was filming […]
UK hardcore legends Bring Me the Horizon brought their Post Human World Tour to the Kia Forum in LA, alongside Knocked Loose, grandson and siiickbrain. With a lineup like this, I knew it was going to be a show to go early to and prepare myself. All these guys are known for their rowdy (although […]
