Don’t get me wrong, I like the occasional “Kids” or “Electric Feel” jam out. And once in a blue moon, I might even enjoy myself while listening to “Time to Pretend.” But I also must say: MGMT is completely and utterly overrated. Sure, I wouldn’t mind attending their upcoming... 

I was recently turned on to a band called “Freelance Whales,” with a name as like that i could only hope the music sounded just as crazy.  To my great delight… it did! they have this wonderful blend of off time rhythm and electro- inspired beats, combined with a creative old time string section. ... 

Davey Havok of AFI. Photo by Raymon Guajardo It’s amazing how much AFI has changed in their nearly 20 year career. They’ve gone from being a small California-based punk quartet playing shows out of 924 Gilman Street to cranking out number 1 hits on the Billboard Charts and playing to some of the country’s... 

Coming up on June 19th, Moor and The Northmen will be coming to The Earth House for what looks like to be an awesome show.  Moor and the Northmen is a group which promotes cultural respect through their combination of rock and reggae.  It’s some easy listening music that’s a little too slow for my taste.  But... 

Just today I was driving through the back roads of Indiana, crooning to Tim McGraw like a good little Hoosier should. Luckily, he’s gracing his presence at Verizon Wireless on Thursday, June 17th at 7:00 PM and bringing Lady Antebellum and the Lost Trailers with him. Can you say “jackpot”? I think... 

Brad Paisley, Live Nation and WFMS 95.5 are teaming up to offer a pair of lower pavilion seat tickets and the opportunity to meet Brad Paisley at his June 5th concert at Verizon Wireless Music Center, as part of his H20 World Tour.  WFMS will be collecting canned foods and water at the main gates of Verizon Wireless... 

As if The Lawn didn’t already have a sweet season ahead, they’ve just added two new shows to the lineup to make for an even better summer of outdoor music. Gov’t Mule, with special guest Jackie Greene, will be performing at The Lawn on Friday, August 20. Tickets go on sale this Friday, June 4 at 10:00 A.M. Train,... 

Live Nation today announced “No Service Fee June” with the elimination of service fees on nearly 8 million tickets, more than 700 shows and 110 artists at all 50 Live Nation owned and operated amphitheaters for the entire month of June. “A fan in every seat is our mission this summer,” said Michael Rapino,... 

The Verizon Wireless Music Center will be hosting one of my most-anticipated concerts of the summer this Saturday, June 5, with Brad Paisley rolling into town for a stop on his H2O world tour. Darius Rucker, Justin Moore, Easton Corbin, Steel Magnolias, and Josh Thompson will all be performing throughout the day,... 

The Vogue is showing off local Hoosiers Pop Lolita, America owns the Moon, and Neon Love Life, with our close neighbors form Chicago The Downtown Struts.  As you may know I love a local show, and I love supporting local music.  If you want to hear an eclectic Mix of Rock this Friday night, then the Vogue is the... 

Anyone who went to May Day last weekend may have noticed a guy walking around with a huge sign advertising cheap tickets to future summer concerts at Verizon.  Aside from the usual Creed or Vans Warped Tour tickets, one stuck out at the bottom of the list: It read “X-Fest: 9/11″ X-Fest already? ... 

I recently ran across a band I feel worthy of review and introduction. Melting Pot is a Toronto based band currently performing as a trio with a refreshing style and sound. Their recent release “All That You Dream” is a five song EP with All That You Dream as the dominate single but each song speaks to... 

The 11th Annual Vintage Indiana Wine and Food Festival will take place at Military Park, located downtown Indianapolis, on June 5. The event is held to celebrate and taste fine wines from Indiana wineries, enjoy food from some of Indiana’s top culinary experts, and enjoy live music from some of Indiana’s... 

This past Sunday I had the chance to sit down with one of my favorite local bands, The Holland Account.  Hailing from Indy, The Holland Account has been working and changing for a couple of years.  Currently, they are working on a full-length album.  I started listening to The Holland Account about eight or nine...
