Tomorrow night the band that brought you oh so many hits Chicago comes to the Murat. Chicago formed in the 1960s and quickly gained ground on BIllboard Charts. Second only to the Beach Boys as far as chart success goes within the US. Chicago has been one of the longest running bands to ever exist. The band has sold over 38 million units including 22 gold, 18 platinum and 8 multi platinum albums. The... 

When I woke up and headed to the venue on the last day of the Caravan Tour, I felt a different vibe and atmosphere emitting from the festival grounds.  It was obvious that many people were feeling the effect of three days of music and the Chicago heat.   My conundrum for the afternoon was that I wanted to see three bands on one stage which were Gomez, David Gray, and DMB.  However, I also really... 

Upon arrival to day two of the Dave Matthews Band Caravan Tour, one thing was evident: It was hot outside.  However, that did not put a damper on the energy from the attendees that afternoon as the festival kicked off.  I made my way into the festival to see my first band of the day, Yonder Mountain String Band.   Having never heard Yonder Mountain String Band before, I will say that they played... 

As I drove to Lakeside, Chicago on Friday morning July 8th, my anticipation for the Dave Matthews Band Caravan was at an all time high.  I could not believe that I was being sent by indyconcerts.com to review such an epic event!  As my friend and I drove to Chicago, jamming to the Dave Caravan playlist I made for the occasion, I couldn’t help think how lucky we were that one of the four stops on... 

Paul McCartney, best known for his stint with the Beatles, has been touring solo for years now.  Nearly Two years ago McCartney did an Evening in New York City live DVD on July 17,18, and 21st, the concert was a Grammy winning gold certified show. As McCartney heads back for a similar performance he has added a few dates. All the dates are in the midwest and to locations he hasn’t been to in many... 

This past Saturday night a little things called May Day went down. In case you haven’t heard of it, each year X103 kicks off the summer with an awesome rock show. This year the lineup consisted of ten bands, and one that was possibly seen as a little unconventional for this type of rock show, She Wants Revenge. Regardless of whether the duo/band would have been better suited playing for My Morning... 

Anyone remember this statement? As we feel the excitement building for this (2010) summer, we wanted to let everyone know that after twenty years of consecutive touring, Dave Matthews Band will be taking 2011 off. We feel lucky that our tours are a part of so many people’s lives, and wanted to give everyone as much notice as possible.  We’re excited to make this summer one of our... 

Mustache and flannel attire was the theme for the event on this past April Fool’s day. Believe it or not…it wasn’t a joke! Five bands total took the stage on Friday. We missed the first two bands, but heard from everyone that Don’t Call it a Comeback did awesome! We also missed Forevermore which I have since been told did well, we will definitely have to check out these two... 

We’ll have complete coverage of this event with lots of photos to share of some of the worlds greatest blues-rock guitarists.  This will be the third and final Crossroads event. The first was held in Dallas and the second in Chicago where the event returns for 2010. Crossroads is a charity event which benefits Crossroads Centre Antiqua, which provides treatment for alcohol and other drug... 

It’s getting that time of the year when a slew of festivals are releasing their lineups which will be received with excitement or utter disappointment. We all know festivals like Bonnaroo (decent lineup this year) and Coachella (very good lineup this year), but I would like to give you an early update on what is a truly a festival to get excited about. Pitchfork.com is a daily visit for me, so why...
