St. Louis was given their latest dose of Rock-and-Roll as Greta Van Fleet kicked off the second leg of their Starcatchers World Tour at Chaifetz Arena. A night of firsts, it was also the live debut of the band Mirador, consisting of GVF’s very own Jake Kiszka putting his head together with Chris Turpin to […]
Have you ever stepped into a concert expecting to headbang yourself a headache and walk out of church instead? That is exactly what happened to me on the SkeleTour and it made the entire night so much better. The Protest started the night with a bang, as Josh Bramlett and TJ Colwell screamed straight into […]
If you were someone that loved early 2000s rock, The Tailgate Tour would be your vibe. The night I experienced in Grand Rapids, Michigan felt like pure nostalgia for a 90s kid like myself. I was actually shocked about Tim Montana. I heard his music and voice, and I said out loud “Wow, this guy […]
The year was 1998, and I remember my friends got me a ticket for my birthday to see a brand new band taking the Northeast Hardcore scene by storm. The band was Hatebreed, and prior to this show, my only experience with live heavy metal was the comparatively tame hair metal band Poison. This night […]
Taking Back Sunday swung by San Diego’s newest fan-favorite venue The Sound alongside the Del Mar Racetrack in between their legendary Coachella sets recently. San Diego was bestowed with a headliner side show with beloved elder-emo Adam Lazzara (lead vocals), John Nolan (lead guitar, piano, vocals), Shaun Cooper (bass), and Mark O’Connell (drums) on April […]
Paso Robles has got “Something To Talk About” thanks to the return of Koe Wetzel, this time selling out Vina Robles Amphitheater. Koe Wetzel and the Konvicts hit the stage ready to party, with high energy and kickass pyrotechnics. Koe has become a fast-rising star: an outlaw in the country music scene, showing no sign […]
Over the last few years, rising indie pop artist Blake Rose has been steadily making his mark across the world. A gifted vocalist hailing from Perth, Australia (now residing in Los Angeles, California), Rose constructs compositions around his emotionally empowering lyrics, using combinations of synthesized and acoustic orchestrations alongside a myriad of self-produced melodic soundscapes […]
Last Thursday and Friday at Red Rocks Amphitheater, just shy of 10,000 fans packed the cavernous walls for each night of Sessanta — an evening with Primus, Puscifer, and A Perfect Circle — celebrating the 60th birthday of Maynard James Keenan, frontman of TOOL, A Perfect Circle, and Puscifer. If you’re a fan of one, […]
The college town of San Luis Obispo was set to dance into the weekend when the Australian pop rock band Lime Cordiale brought the party to SLO Brewing on Thursday night. Lime Cordiale started their set with their hits “Imposter” and “Money”, followed by “Naturally”. SLO Brews is an awesome venue with a disco ball, […]
Delmar Hall hosted an intimate night of ethereal rock as the band Palace took to the stage for a stop on their Spring 2024 US tour. The venue was packed from front to back and buzzing in anticipation for the show, as I elbowed my way up to the front before shooting the opening act. […]
St. Andrews Hall hosted the Gothic Summer Tour and it had one of the most fun lineups I have ever seen. Both artists kept my attention from beginning to end; I know they kept the audience’s attention, as well. It was a night to forget life’s problems and, instead, enjoy yourself for a few hours. […]
Khruangbin‘s A La Sala Tour grooved on into The Rady Shell on April 16th, creating an insanely unique experience of psychedelic rock on the water, settled along the beautiful skyline of downtown San Diego.

On a rainy Tuesday night early in April, the great state of Wisconsin was set ablaze with pop-punk fever as Fall Out Boy‘s So Much For (2our) Dust Tour stormed into the Fiserv Forum, joined by the iconic Jimmy Eat World. The weather outside the iconic “Deer District” was cold and windy, as if winter […]
The Old Rock House just south of Downtown St. Louis hosted another heavy dubstep show to a packed house of headbangers. The heavy-wub-heavyweight Kai Wachi and his two opener acts were brought to town by B&W productions, and certainly gave the audience a performance to remember. Accompanying Kai Wachi on the tour were the two […]
North Carolina-based improvisational rock band Big Something came roaring into St Louis on April 18th and I could not have been more excited. In 2018, I was fortunate enough to help run sound for The Big What? — Big Something’s self-produced jam band festival thrown in the North Carolina hills. When I first learned about […]
