Things are a little mellow this weekend, probably with everyone gearing up for the big Turkey Fest coming up next week. But there is still a ton of incredible shows, and a donka-truck-tonnage of tickets going on sale, so you can get some Christmas shopping done too (and pick yourself up something nice while you’re […]
Nickelback Here and Now Roadrunner By Ellen Eldridge Nickelback surprises me with how controversial they’ve become lately. The protest against their scheduled Thanksgiving Day performance in Detroit seems far too overdramatic for what I always considered a pretty decent pop rock band. Front man Chad Kroeger and the rest of the band have not responded […]

By Ellen Eldridge; photo by Cindy Frey Atlanta-based band, Mastodon, recently released its fifth full-length, The Hunter. While less progressive than Crack the Skye, it shows a return to riff-based writing that both fans and the boys in the band can enjoy live. The finale of the current tour takes place at Atlanta’s Tabernacle on […]
Bombadil All That the Rain Promises Ramseur Records By Leila Regan-Porter North Carolina’s Bombadil started out with a lot going for them.

Review by David Courtright; photo by Matt Smith When Leslie Feist strolled out on stage with Vermont vocal trio Mountain Man in tow, holding a full wine glass, it seemed to be a foregone conclusion the evening would amount to something special. For Feist, an internationally-acclaimed pop star (whether she likes it or not), has […]

This is definitely a weekend for the non-procrastinators. There’s a lot of sold-out (and close to selling out) shows up on our list, but luckily for those who waited too long there is still plenty of great gigs to choose from. So make those plans now if you haven’t already!
By Justin Lyons Foo Fighters have a good problem on their hands: They can play soaring rock anthems for three hours straight. It’s actually more of an issue for their fans that barely have time to catch their breath. From start to finish, there was hardly a moment that Dave Grohl and company weren’t shaking […]
