Social media really is influential. Since I follow White Reaper, all of its members, and even some key touring folks, of course I am seeing them post from all sorts of shows! And yes, I did just see them at the end of May, but my ears miss their music in a live setting, so after some scrolling through their tour dates I found that they were set to play a small barbeque festival in a suburb of Detroit. That’s only three hours and some change away! So I convinced my BBQ-loving friend to tag along for the ride.

The Popular MonsTOUR – Concert Review
I am really slipping here. Just a day after the 4th celebrations were over, my sister and I headed up a VERY big hill to catch the Popular MonsTOUR at Pittsburgh University. That means we got a lot of action thanks to the headliner that was Falling in Reverse.

Another year, another new festival because why not? This time, I headed back to the LA area, Pasadena to be more specific, to knock my number one bucket list band off that list at the Just Like Heaven Music Festival.

Well, my dad needed a concert buddy. And as someone who knows how many shows my dad used to go to back in the day, I happily obliged.
Read moreConcert Review: Joywave
I’ve had the distinct pleasure of seeing Joywave be a very solid opener for Bastille and Twenty One Pilots in the past, but never headlining their own shows. I credit Sirius XM’s Alt Nation for turning me onto these guys. While I have no doubt I would have found out about them eventually, they just got the ball rolling a little faster.

It happened! The whole catalyst for a trip across the pond was to see Don Broco in the flesh and it was as good as I imagined it would be!
