2025 Concerts

Widespread Panic at Red Rocks and Milwaukee.

Possibly God Street Wine in Chicago in the fall as a friend is really pushing hard but HS football has priority the next two years.

Haven’t seen Billy yet and need to make that happen this year. GSBG is always a possibility if they play within 4-5 hours of IC.

I have yet to check out The Sphere and would love to make that happen.

Panic in Milwaukee is tempting for me.

Panic in Milwaukee is tempting for me.

I generally fly solo and meet up with friends there.

Milwaukee knows how to throw a party. A room at the Drury a block away, car out front with full bar in the back, street blocked off w live music all day. If the weather permits, it’s the perfect setup.

 

[BrianNole777]

I saw "Zoso" last weekend in Virginia. Great show.

They're a Led Zeppelin tribute band and the 2nd best band of all time.

 

[NI hawk]

Anyone else going to fyre festival 2?

Damn good documentary on Fyre festival 1.

 

[DooBi]

Union Underground with Spineshank should be a good one. Coal Chamber got canceled.

 

[tarheelbybirth]

Getting ready to head up to Boone to see my older brother and hit the Marcus King show. If you miss me, just remember, you're ALL f'n assholes.

 

[TylerJ23]

How was Dylan now that he's 120 years old?

 

[Hawkholt]

Dead & Company at The Sphere in Vegas 4/18 and 4/19. Can't wait!

I was at the 4/18 show! Amazing venue.

 

[ericram]

Will plan some concerts over the summer. Being in Europe brings a different experience and much cheaper than the states.

Will return in October to Red Rocks to see the Revivalists.

 

[Jim Grizzly]

Social distortion in june

Scored Billy Strings tickets for September at the Schaefer Center in Boone. Weirdest ticket purchase I’ve ever made. You just submitted your name and waited. No idea if we were getting tickets or where they would be. They had a drawing, I assume, and we got picked. Our best friends and my older brother and his wife lost out. It’s supposedly designed to prevent scalpers since the tickets are non-transferable.

We’ll also be seeing Shovels and Rope in August.

 

[Bro D]

Other than a bunch of local shows, only thing planned is Yonder Mountan String Band at Codfish Hollow

I'm jealous. He seems to really like playing in North Carolina. Lots of great performances in Asheville.

Was at the Disturbed/Daughtry concert this past Friday. 25th Anniversary Tour of "The Sickness".

 

[millah_22]

Nothing booked yet. But the wife no pics mentioned that Coheed and Cambria are gonna be at Red Rocks in September w/ Taking Back Sunday so we're contemplating that. Not a huge Taking Back Sunday fan, but I do like Coheed and Cambria. Red Rocks would be a cool venue to see them at.

I've seen coheed like 6 times and I would see them 6 more times. I love them and Father of Make Believe is a banger album.

 

[millah_22]

Future Islands in Omaha tonight for their People Who Aren't Here Anymore tour

[McLovin32]

A couple buddies and myself are to the Kings of the West tour in Des Moines in July

 

[Aardvark86]

So I caught my first show at lime kiln theater last night.

First, the venue was really cool - an old limestone quarry and kiln surrounded in forest. A short walk from town. Intimate outdoor setting seating about 600, with excellent acoustics. Benches, blankets, and camping chairs. Tailgates > food trucks. If you’re ever in Lexington on a show weekend, I highly recommend it.

As to the punch brothers. I’d not seen them and was only minimally familiar with their stuff. Interesting and yet strange. Very very talented players. Funny, but pretentious. Billed as progressive bluegrass but very heavy on the progressive once you get past instrumentation. Heard what seemed like a dozen styles, ranging from Celtic to bluegrass to beat poetry to jazz to to Norwegian fiddle tunes to blues to modern classical, yet none was ever sustained. Very compositional rather than improv on a form. A tendency to the percussive rather than the melodic. An experience closer to going to Kennedy center to listen to a recital than going to see a dance or bar band or rock concert.

Probably not my favorite cup of tea, but actually very good for what it was, with the right mindset.

Rainbow kitten suprise Friday. Better than I expected, they were like a shitty mumford and sons but decent.

 

[SeaPA]

The initial schedule release for the festival I go to every October was today; it's largely bluegrass/Americana, with some blues & jazz mixed in...Oteil & Friends, Yonder Mountain String Band, Donna the Buffalo, Peter Rowan...
Also on the bill is an old favorite of mine, Bill Wharton, The Sauce Boss. He may have the greatest gimmick of all time; he's a very good slide guitarist that plays a great blues show. Onstage with him & his band he has a burner & a huge pot; over the course of the show he makes a pot of gumbo (play a few songs, add some ingredients, play a few more, add some more ingredients...). At the end of the show, he serves it up to the crowd, free of charge. Both his music and his gumbo is damn good - so good, in fact, that Jimmy Buffett wrote a song about him, I Will Play for Gumbo.

This Friday: The Infamous Stringdusters

 

[ThorneStockton]

Some good taste in the last few posts. I recently got tickets to see the Travellin' McCourys with my dad and brother in a new music venue in town in July and tickets to a slightly less popular bluegrass outfit called Mountain Grass Unit in June.

 

[Bonerfarts]

Teddy Swims and Mavis Staples are headlining the free Saturday in the Park festival in Sioux City. Never hear of him, but I heard this song 1,000 times before.

 

[tarheelbybirth]

Got to catch Old Crow Medicine Show on the 10th. That was fun.

 

[Menace Sockeyes]

Chicago’s 20th anniversary Riot Fest lineup is bonkers, but especially Saturday. After Blink 182 Friday, Saturday features The Damned, Agent Orange, The Buzzcocks, Marky Ramone, Dropkick Murphy’s, with The Sex Pistols, Weezer, and Jack White headlining at night. Then Sunday is The Effigies, Bad Religion, Gym Class Heroes and Green Day headlining to close.
