Black Veil Brides bring their Black Mass Tour to a packed crowd in San Francisco

November 4, 2014

What might possibly be titled the best tour of 2014, Black Veil Brides Black Mass Tour made a stop in San Francisco last night.  They brought the top notch lineup to the legendary Warfield Theater in San Francisco. The line outside the venue circled around Market Street and it was filled with concertgoers of all ages, styles, genres, etc. The crowd was there to do one thing, show their love for music and to support these great bands. We will be bringing you complete photo galleries and full coverage of each band in the coming days, but we wanted to give you a quick recap of the night. Drama Club, the electric and mysterious DJ duo started the show off right by delivering a full energetic dose of elecro shock pop. They got the crowd completely fired up and even did a remix of Andy Black’s They Don’t Need To Understand. The two were intense as their spectacular stage presence captured everyone’s attention. They were the perfect opener to get the crowd on their feet [Read More]

Crash Midnight rocks Ohio opening for The Pretty Reckless. Contributed by Tara Williams

November 4, 2014

Crash Midnight may not be a household name YET! Brace yourselves…It’s coming! Their name will be on the tip of your tongue very soon. The band aptly got it’s name in true rock ‘n roll fashion. Front man Shaun Soho got a late night call from his brother Bo telling him he had a great name for a band, Crash Midnight. Followed by him asking for a late night ride since he had just wrecked his car. This five piece band hails from Boston & have been together for 10 years. They are a monster lab creation of combining the sounds of Axl Rose, Mick Jagger, & New York Dolls. A little blues, a little punk, & a LOT of real old school Rock ‘N Roll! I had the pleasure of catching their show at the Newport in Columbus, OH. The band’s debut album “Lost In The City” is just around the corner with a release date of November 18th. It was pushed back until they are finished touring with Adelita’s Way & The Pretty [Read More]

Alter Bridge returns to San Francisco for a packed house at The Warfield!

October 28, 2014

The drive down to San Francisco this past Saturday was filled with cranky drivers maneuvering the streets sprinkled with the first rain. We made sure to head down early since Game 4 of the World Series was being held at the AT&T park and we were not going to let anything get in our way of seeing Alter Bridge at The Warfield. We made it to the venue as the line was beginning to wrap around Market St. It was great to see the heavy turnout arriving pre-show to make sure they caught Like A Storm and California Breed, both delivering spectacular sets. Alter Bridge hit the stage and the crowd went wild. They treated everyone to a 17 song set inclusive of fan favorites as well as many new songs off their recent release, Fortress. The crowd was filled with fans of all ages and the energy in The Warfield intensified with each song. The vocals of Myles are spot on and proves why he is still my all time favorite vocalist. Mark was [Read More]
