As you all know, I attended my first house concert not so long ago to see a good friend of mine, Ari Hest, rock the Kessler house. Having been my first house concert I had no idea what to expect. But what I did get was a great performance from Ari, unplugged to be exact, …

Last Thursday I went to see Wilco perform at the IU Auditorium in Bloomington. For those of you who don’t know, Wilco has a very unique brand of rock infused with alt.country roots. Before going, I wasn’t a Wilco fan; the only time I had even heard their music was when my roommate played it …
I had some questions I wanted answered Wednesday night at Chris Cornell’s sold out show at the Vogue: How will Cornell’s new Timbaland produced album, Scream, translate to the stage? How will an early 90’s Seattle grunge-rocker balance his iconic past, and controversial present? What kind of band will he have backing him? Does he still have the fire, …
A couple Fridays ago Rain was in concert at Clowes Memorial Hall at Butler University, in Indianapolis. Rain is a tribute band to the world famous Beatles, the history of Rain actually predates the Broadway hit “Beatlemania”, from which Rain’s all-star cast was recruited. When Dick Clark searched for the musicians to record the sound track …
Okay, okay, so it’s not a traditional concert, but this past Saturday several girlfriends and I were venturing out for yet another bachelorette party, and we were looking for something different than our usual scene. First we considered the Northside, but we weren’t really digging the strip mall bar scene that the Northside has to …
Most of Indianapolis was well aware when Lil’ Wayne entered its boarders, fans were lined up and have been waiting for weeks to see the rapper in concert in Indianapolis. This was definitely one of the most atisapated concerts in Indy for a while. I even talked to some people that had driven almost 10 …
Don’t know if I’ve mentioned this – or if you’ve read the “Who We Are!” page you’ll know – but I am slightly obsessed with the new Nickelback album “Dark Horse.” My best friends (Amber, Laura and Lindsay this is for you!) and I blast most of the songs from this album before every girls’ …
Well it’s Monday evening, and I’m still raving about my Friday night. Brett Dennen makes me happy. And even crazier, I was watching Brothers & Sisters last night, and I swear that was Darlin’ Do Not Fear playing during a pivotal moment (I won’t ruin it for you if you haven’t seen it yet). Anyways, …
Rock music, chanting and yodeling; what do these three things have in common? Usually the answer would be nothing. But Saturday night at Birdy’s Bar and Grille I was proven wrong. Keaton Simons kicked the night off with a rocking start on guitar bringing the packed house to its feet. Simons, who has played and …
This past Friday, February 20th, 2009 Indianapolis had a special visitor. There were actually three special visitors. Coming off of Avenged Sevenfold the night before, the Egyptian Room at the Murat Theater located downtown hosted In This Moment, Non-Point, and Mudvayne. Having not toured since their last album, which was released in 2005, Mudvayne was …
