Avatar Flies in Pinellas Park
There are bands and musicians and there are bands with Rock Stars. On Sunday at England Brothers Park in St. Petersburg, the fans weathered the elements and witnessed the later. Avatar from Gothenberg, Sweden took the small band shell stage and dominated the lineup that included 7 bands headlined by P.O.D. and Hell Yeah. […]
The Wailers Warm Up the Sunshine State
With lows in the mid forties last week, this was as close to winter as Florida can get. It was no wonder then that people flocked to the House of Blues in Disney for a ray of sunshine and a dose of positive vibes. The Marquee read “The Wailers,” and it brought fans from far […]
A Night at the Plaza with Matisyahu
“We play what the f––– we want to play,” Said a visibly annoyed Matisyahu – and thunderous applause broke the awkward silence. Interruptions were frequent during the Jewish reggae star’s performance in Orlando, and so he decided to address them. “Does every artist have to deal with this?” The setting for Wednesday’s show at the […]

Hollywood Undead, Rise Against and Friends at the KINK! Musical Festival
There’s something about a festival that makes life seem complete. At the Kink Music Festival, there was a certain community aspect.

Theory of a Deadman w/ Pop Evil, Aranda & Artifas
After covering concerts for a year and a half in Orlando, it’s a pretty big surprise that I haven’t found my way to the Beacham yet. Located in the heart of downtown, the Beacham is the best place to catch a show without having to go to Theme Park Land. If I was going to […]

Adults of the Korn

On Sunday night in Tampa, Ghost, (formerly known as Ghost B.C. in the US), performed at the Ritz in historic Ybor City during the North American and European “Black to the Future” Tour.
