You Me At Six + Enter Shikari

October 14, 2024 by

I was graced by a double-feature here in our hometown of Orlando; You Me At Six on their last US tour, and Enter Shikari tearing up central Florida for the second time this year. You Me At Six definitely has an ubeat energy, but their final US, and Florida date specifically, made the entire set more emotional than you average rock show.

What can I possibly say about Enter Shikari that hasn’t already been said. They had breakdowns, they tested the limits of the venues sound system with electronic music, and Rou Reynolds played the trumpet. Carry on boys.

Bad Nerves + Nothing But Thieves

October 4, 2024 by

Another double feature, this time with Bad Nerves opening for Nothing But Thieves at House of Blues!

I always appreciate having rowdier, heavier punk and metal bands opening for larger artists, and Bad Nerves definitely delivered that punk energy to some fans that may not have otherwise realized they liked it.

This isn’t Nothing But Thieves’ first time around and the block, and it surely won’t be their last.

Zheani

Zheani put on an amazing performance and had great stage presence. The two backup dancers were also really cool to watch. I loved the unique outfits and style of makeup that the performers used, as well as the graphics during the show!

Alpha Wolf + Sepultura

October 2, 2024 by

Although they weren’t on the same ticket, I was able to catch an unorthodox double-feature in Alpha Wolf and Sepultura playing the same venue in St. Pete, on back to back nights.

Alpha Wolf was first on October 1st, and it’s always a pleasure watching them tear it up. They were definitely the heaviest band on the bill, but I and many others, were definitely there for it.

Sepultura was the next night and proved why they are a staple in the genre and still tearing it up 40 years later. Some of the sound issues we experienced with the venue the previous night were absolutely gone with the experienced crew and tight ship these guys run. Absolute legends.

Finger Eleven

September 20, 2024 by

Catching Finger Eleven on the Summer of ’99 tour was everything we expected and more. Opening for Three Doors Down and Creed, our friends from the North, Finger Eleven, brought an energy matching their bona fide American closers.

Getting to finally connect with Sean after months of prep was also a pleasure, the guys were incredible off-stage as well.

Lamp

September 7, 2024 by

After a little road trip up to Atlanta, catching Lamp’s three-day run with Mitski at the Fox Theatre was such a pleasure! Lamp is an incredibly groovy band, unlike any other.

Getting to finally connect with the internationally acclaimed Paul, was unforgettable as well. I hope we’ll get Lamp, and more acts like them, back home in Florida very soon!

Crawlers opening for Jane’s Addiciton before Jane’s very public breakup! I’m grateful to have caught one of the shows before the tour ended abruptly!

Deep Purple

August 15, 2024 by

Had the chance to an oldie, but a goodie – Deep Purple! I can only hope to still be performing, especially to such an enthusiastic crowd, in my 70’s and 80’s.
