It was a beautiful evening on Sunday, August 10th in the heart of Hollywood at The John Anson Ford Amphitheatre, familiarly known as The Ford. This is currently my third time attending this beautiful, intimate outdoor venue and I just can’t get enough of it. It gives you an up-close-and-personal experience with the artist; you […]
On Sunday, August 10th in Costa Mesa, the Pacific Amphitheatre pulsed with the heartbeat of modern roots reggae. As part of the Orange County Fair’s 2025 Summer Concert Series, Tribal Seeds headlined a stacked lineup that felt less like a concert and more like a spiritual gathering of California’s reggae faithful. The Simpkin Project kicked […]
Creed made a triumphant return to the bay on Saturday, August 9th, when they rolled through Mountain View, California’s Shoreline Amphitheater for the Summer of ’99 Tour with special guests Sevendust and Mammoth. Creed is one of those rock bands that, in my opinion, needs no introduction. Whether it’s at a sports game, a restaurant, […]
The onset of the Millennium brought forth great years in hip hop history. Latent from the mid-90s — basically 1996… the last year hip hop held its head high before a dizzying amount of pop groups held an industry stranglehold — came the resurgence of hip hop greatness with Dre, Snoop, Lil Kim, Jay-Z, Eminem, […]
I found myself at the Hollywood Casino Amphitheatre for yet another night of excellent jams and a seat of summer swamp ass. What made this night different from others as of late was not only the longest concert line I had ever seen going into the venue, but also the songs and the musicians who […]
On Saturday, August 16th, Lucy Dacus celebrated her last night of the Forever Is A Feeling Tour — at least, her August run — at the historic Greek Theatre located within UC Berkeley. Doors opened at 6:30, but lines were already wrapped down the street well before 6pm, marking the sign of a great show […]
The Pacific Amphitheatre was ablaze with nostalgia on August 3rd, as three legendary Los Angeles bands — X, Los Lobos, and Ozomatli — joined forces for the 99 Years of Rock ‘N Roll Tour. It was also part of the Orange County Fair’s Summer Concert Series. It wasn’t just a concert; it was a cultural summit: […]
I can’t think of a better way to start the month of August than seeing a Rainbow Kitten Surprise show. The first of August fell on a Friday — a perfect night to begin the weekend with live music outside. Saint Louis Music Park was bustling with people under the soft orange sun, some with […]
On Friday, August 1st, country music star Morgan Wallen brought the first two nights of his highly anticipated I’m The Problem Tour to Levi Stadium in Santa Clara, California — home of the San Francisco 49ers. Morgan Wallen has just released his fourth studio album I’m The Problem on May 16th, shattering records with 36 […]
By the time the sun dipped behind the historic arches of the Riverside Municipal Auditorium on August 1st, the air was already buzzing with anticipation. Fans decked out in vintage band tees and checkerboard Vans gear swarmed the venue, ready to skank, shout, and sweat through a night of ska-punk glory. The lineup? A dream […]
It was another busy (and scorchingly hot) night at the Hollywood Casino Amphitheater. The final Saturday of July was celebrated with a total of five performances, with the headliner being the very anticipated, quirky, and colorful AJR. The crowd was coming in steady as the first performers completed their sets. Madilyn Mei was the opener, […]
Walking into Ascend Amphitheater on a humid Nashville night, I felt the buzz of anticipation ripple through my body. I also felt the sweat pouring down my head thanks to this unusually hot summer. There’s something about seeing a band like Alabama Shakes in an outdoor venue that already feels electric before the first note […]
One of the beautiful things about music is how easily it attaches to memory. Ask anyone and they will tell you a song that takes them back to somewhere else, some other time. It’s a lovely aspect of music although, sometimes, this can be quite painful. I have a lot of songs like that… songs […]
Now, I’ve heard of a ‘contact high’, but I personally think I got a concert high the evening Wiz Khalifa’s Good Vibes Only Tour hit St. Louis. It was my first time ever going to the Hollywood Casino Amphitheater and, while I have always heard great things, I had no idea just how massive the venue […]
It was Day Six at the California Mid-State Fair in Paso Robles and the fun had just begun, considering the fast-rising American country rock band from Alabama The Red Clay Strays was about to take the stage that night alongside Kaitlin Butts. With a cool breeze in the air to break up the summer heat, […]
