Despite living in Ohio my whole life, and only a very short drive away from The Black Keys’ hometown of Akron, I’ve never actually seen these guys live before! I had the opportunity back eight years ago at Bunbury Music Festival down in Cincinnati, but just as they were due to play there was quite a bit of thunder and lightening. I wasn’t really prepared to die for The Black Keys that night.

The US Open, Luenell & a Drag Show
Over this long holiday weekend I paid my friend a visit in the great city of New York. While a day session at the US Open was in the cards, most of what else we decided to do was planned fairly last minute, but we sure stumbled upon some gems.

It’s definitely been a good number of years before I’ve seen Ohio’s own Twenty One Pilots in concert, but last night’s show was a warm welcome back into their world.

Read moreConcert Review: Sleigh Bells
I feel like this show has been a long time in the making, and I’m not just talking about it being postponed from earlier this year. It seems as though I was always just missing out on seeing Sleigh Bells nearby. But no more!
Read moreConcert Review: Anberlin
You know, up until the pandemic it had been quite some time since I’d seen Anberlin play music together in a live capacity. Part of that had to do with the fact that they broke up for a little while, but part of me remembers being more impressed with an opening band. To my surprise, the livestream concert I watched of them performing Cities in full was freaking incredible! When I saw that they were doing a three day “residency” at my favorite music venue, I knew I had to go hear them play Cities again live and in person.

Yes, you are reading that right! Last night, I went with a group of high school friends and headed to the middle of nowhere to catch my 90s musical obsession, the Backstreet Boys.

It’s hard to believe I last saw Bastille five years ago, but I guess that’s what happens when half of those years are spent in a pandemic.
Read moreConcert Review: Motion City Soundtrack
You know, I’ve seen Motion City Soundtrack a number of times over the years, so when I saw a Commit This to Memory 15th anniversary tour, I was actually going to skip out. Firstly, it was scheduled in 2020, then got moved to the middle of winter in Ohio, but then the stars aligned and it got moved again and I saw them at Riot Fest. They were one of the best sets I saw that weekend and it made me remember how freaking awesome they are. So yeah, when I saw the show was approaching, I snatched up tickets.
