Full disclosure, I wasn’t super familiar with The Aces when I asked my friend if she wanted to go see them in concert Friday night. I had heard a few singles on Sirius XM and knew they’d gotten a fair amount of buzz in the past, but I never really explored them any further. But, when you’re tasked with some time off and no big trip planned, you make your own fun.

Foster the People Livestream
It’s been approximately ten years since Foster the People’s debut album Torches was released, so in order to celebrate that milestone they played that album front to back and was kind enough to livestream it for all us losers who couldn’t attend in person. Bless.
Read moreConcert Review: Here Come the Mummies
Truthfully, seeing Here Come the Mummies again at the House of Blues near me was one of the concerts I was really looking forward to last year until COVID put life and live music on hold. Sure, their Halloween livestream was awesome, but I really wanted to be in the room with the band and feed off of their insane energy. Well, I just got that chance last night!

This year, the annual Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony took place in Cleveland! I do believe this is the first time (at least in a very long time) that this has happened and who knows, maybe it will never happen again. All I knew was that with this particular class, I wanted to be in attendance.

My middle school self continues to thrive this year! Just like Scary Kids Scaring Kids graced me with an anniversary tour last month, emo stalwarts, Armor for Sleep have followed suit.

It worked out even better for me this year!

Early Friday morning I boarded a plane headed to Chicago for the first time in my life, in the middle of a pandemic (still), to attend Riot Fest! To say I was both nervous and excited is an understatement.

You read that right folks, over the weekend I attended and music and tattoo festival. Many tattoos were had, just not by me. But there was plenty of live music to make me feel like life is worth living again. Thankfully with some COVID mandates and me choosing to wear a mask all weekend, I felt like it was a relatively safe and very fun event! It was my first time attending, and thanks to some sheer luck, I ended up winning some VIP passes, so I got the whole dang experience! Let’s dive into what all went down!

After delaying this epic concert a whole year, the Hella Mega Tour finally made its way to my neck of the woods!

After a year away, I couldn’t wait to get back to the beautiful grounds at the Linder Family Tennis Center to catch all the pros playing ALL. THE. TENNIS. I could have done without the constant sweating still, but you can’t win them all. Either way, I was glad to be back at this excellent tournament!
