It was another unforgettable night of rock ‘n’ roll as two legendary bands from the heavy metal scene took the stage at The Fillmore. What made this show particularly special was the pairing of Armored Saint and WASP, […]
Last night was one of those rare concert experiences that stick with you for a lifetime. Having attended concerts for nearly 50 years, I’ve seen a spectrum of opening acts—some outstanding, others lackluster. As I […]
Opening band The Script reminds me of those horribly boring bands from the 1980s like U2 and others that just stand there. I am not saying their songs are bad or that they are not […]
This is the third offering from A Rising Force, a band based out of Minneapolis Saint Paul. Their first record undertow here’s one that I listened to on a regular basis and it featured Mark […]
Sabaton is a band based out of Sweden if you have not heard of them. They are absolutely fantastic I’ve seen them several different times on tour. Unfortunately for this particular review and this evening, […]
My weekend with Metallica. Including Pantera, Mammoth WVH, Ice Nine Kills and Five Finger Death Punch @US Bank Stadium Minneapolis, Minnesota 2024 I was lucky enough to see the two Metallica shows at U.S. bank […]
I’ve always been aware of Living Colour more because of the guitar player Vernon Reed than anything else. I have a lot of friends who are musicians that constantly talk about how amazing he is, […]
Green Day The Saviors Tour 2024. Target Field, Minneapolis, MN Saturday, August 17, 2024 with special guests The Smashing Pumpkins, Rancid, and the Linda Lindas In this review I’m just going to get right to the […]
They had an opening act and as far as I’m concerned it really doesn’t matter because it was just two guys standing on stage making noise. There was literally nothing interesting about it at all […]
Ghost Kid, Creeper and BVB hit the Fillmore…
This was a balls to the wall old fashioned punk rock show, complete with many of the old Minneapolis punks showing up to support. This was the first show like this In have attended in […]
Billed as an intimate evening of acoustic songs and stories. Stories I can tell you that’s exactly what I got! You know fairness I think it’s important that I mention that I have seen Godsmack […]
This was a spectacular concert that might go down in history for me as the top 10 shows I’ve ever seen. The most exciting part about it was the fact that I didn’t know who […]
For those of you reading this as you know, the stadium tour is now nothing but a memory. However, I was able to catch two of the last shows at the end of August. […]
This is the second time through the Twin Cities for Alter Bridge on this tour. It appears they’re winding things down and the tour is coming near an end. This time they brought along […]
This is another great triple metal bill for all of you fans that love mosh pits, crowd surfing and loud aggressive rock and roll. The Skyway theatre in Minneapolis seems to be hosting more […]
Full disclosure, I’m a big fan of Alice Cooper and have seen him live consistently since 1979. In fact, my very first concert was in Saint Paul at the infamous tear gas show. I can confidently […]
Beauty School Dropout is an up-and-coming band that is a great opener for this show. High energy rock with well written songs. I can see how they can really make an impact moving forward if […]
This was what I thought it would be, a skull crushing metal show! I always enjoy bills like this because there’s at least one or more bands that I’m not familiar with. It’s exciting […]
This was a concert that I was very much looking forward to. Beyond the music it’s fun to attend these types of shows where it’s almost like a time capsule back in time to […]
This is a very interesting bill. All three bands are complementary to one another. It’s very much Hard Rock then some may call it heavy metal. But not heavy metal in the classic sense […]
I mentioned this in a previous review that if you get a chance to visit Saint Charles which is just outside of Chicago, you must stop at the Arcada Theater. It’s so much more than a […]
I can’t really talk about the bands until I talk about the Arcada Theater. It’s truly one of the most unique places I’ve ever been It’s a wonderful place to see a live show. Because […]
Unfortunately, I was not able to see Crobot’s set. I have seen them before and they’re absolutely fantastic live. They are a Hard Rock band from Pennsylvania and are currently touring supporting their latest release titled, […]
As soon as I heard this tour announced, I thought this was another great double bill. Promoters and managers are getting more and more creative. These two bands complement each other very well. They’ve been […]
