On July 29th Tokyo Police Club will be stopping by The Vogue to promote their latest album, Champ, and since its recent release date, the album has done for the Canadian quartet what most sophomore albums do to up-and-coming bands (although the band considers Lessons In Crime to be their first “proper” album), which is …

Let’s, for a moment, start with a story for this one: You’re a couple of guys from Chicago who decide to get together during one Halloween and play a show as one particular band. It’s not anything serious at first, but then the notes start. The music excels and the chemistry is unmatchable. Everyone loves …
The name Led Zeppelin is synonymous with classic rock. At one time the biggest and most widely known band in the world, many long for the day that the remaining 3 members would come together to perform one last time for those wishing to see the electricity that was The Zep live. One band has …
This past holiday weekend I had the privilege of spending a few days in the great city of Chicago. To celebrate July Fourth, I spent a hotter than hot day in Grant Park, where the thirtieth annual Taste of Chicago was taking place. Taste of Chicago is a ten-day food festival featuring cuisine from over 70 restaurants. The …
This last Friday, I had the experience to see some of Indiana’s great local bands performing at a show at The Vogue. While I had never heard of the bands before, I went into the night with an open mind on what would be to come from great bands. Jer Gregg opened up the show. …

Two years removed from their highly successful cover (peaking at #22 on the Billboard Modern …

One is a former winner of the Indy Scene Battle of the Bands. One is a former winner of Battle of Birdy’s. Both dominate the local scene. So what will happen when these two face off against each other? No, it probably won’t be one of those meetings where the world will explode if you …
Last night Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros descended upon Indianapolis and prophetically transformed The Vogue into a house of worship. Guided by their co-founder/spiritual leader, Alexander Ebert, The Zeros seamlessly converted an entire flock of listeners into not only firm believers in the band, but also devoted followers. Before the ceremony began I had …
They’ve given you nearly 20 years of music, five studio albums and catchy singles galore (“Never There,” “Sheep Go To Heaven,” “Short Skirt/Long Jacket,” and yes, even that cover of “War Pigs” that dominated the airwaves on X103 several years ago). The only things these Sacramento natives haven’t given you lately is 1.) a new …
