Fan Art Spotlight: Twenty One Pilots

One would have to think Twenty One Pilots were the obvious choice for this week’s fan art Friday. But in case it’s not, I’ll let you know that the band has a new album, Scaled and Icy, out today! On top of that, they are also doing a live stream performance this evening! Check back in tomorrow for a full review of the new album (sadly, I won’t be around to watch the live stream). Enjoy!

Concert Throwback: Phantogram

These past couple weeks I’ve been jamming almost non-stop to Phantogram. If you follow me anywhere on my socials, and even here, I’m sure you already know that I really like them a lot. They are one of the few bands I’ve seen in multiple states (on purpose), and they are truly amazing live (and recorded, obviously). My first opportunity to see them was in Pittsburgh, and I’ve also seen them in Cleveland, Columbus, and Las Vegas at the Life if Beautiful festival. Each time was fantastic, but at the Pittsburgh show my friend and I were able to snag the front row and it was fabulous! I was also introduced to another great band at that show called Jagwar Ma (check them out!!). The Columbus show was also really memorable because I snagged a setlist and was able to meet the band and gift them with a drawing! One of my favorite concert moments of all time hands down.

MLB All-Star Concert: Twenty One Pilots

Well I for one was very excited that the MLB All-Star festivities took place in Cleveland this year.

I managed to snag a pair of tickets to catch Twenty One Pilots this past Friday, so my sister and I headed up, sweated a little bit, and had a blast!

Warped Tour 25th Anniversary – Cleveland

The concerts continued this past weekend with the Warped Tour 25th Anniversary kicking off at Cleveland’s Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. I will say, back when I heard there were going to be a select few shows this year and Cleveland was one of those locations, I was definitely going no matter what. Truth be told, the lineup was pretty weak in terms of the amount of bands, but what it lacked in numbers it made up with killer performances and access to the museum.
