Picture Book & Live Review: The Shins @ Cobb Energy Performing Arts Centre, October 8th!

Pictures courtesy of Hillery Terenzi, Review by Codi Glancy. There are concerts that are good, concerts that are great, and concerts that change your outlook towards all other concerts in the best way.  The Shins were one of those life changing concerts, at least for me.

Picture Book & Live Review: Grace Potter and the Nocturnals @ the Tabernacle, October 6th

  Pictures and Review by Taylor Wallace! You could tell instantly upon entrance to the Tabernacle off Luckie St. that this would be no ordinary Grace Potter show.
