Although it was a freezing night with the temperature dropping to 8o Fahrenheit. On February 7, 2026, in Worcester, MA, I attended the Pink Talking Fish performance at Off the Rails Music Venue. It was cold but it was a terrific, heated night of music. The sold-out event was just incredible. Seeing people singing, dancing and acting crazy during the entire performance, made it easy to recognize that they were prepared for that night of electric, high-energy performances that

There were quite a few barriers that concertgoers had to cross on the night of February 7th. If it wasn’t the lack of service at the nearby Jefferson Stop on the L train, it was traversing the below freezing temperatures. If it wasn’t the bitter cold, it was navigating the ice and snow still on the ground from the winter storm two weeks prior. However, even with all of these obstacles, Zone One was as packed as ever for Daffo’s New York headlining show.

TX2 brought The End of Us Tour to Bakersfield on February 8, 2026.

It's an unusually cold evening as the sun shines on the historic cobblestone streets of Ybor City here in Tampa, Florida. Though only a Monday night, the air is filled with an undeniable excitement at Crowbar, located at the corner of East 8th and North 17th.  Inside this popular music sanctuary, adoring fans in halos and angel wings are scattered around the room, patiently waiting to be blessed with killer vocals, catchy lyrics, and the unmistakable energy of Meg Smith,

The Elovaters performed at MGM Music Hall at Fenway, Boston, with special guests including SixFoxWhiskey, Jarv, and Afroman. The Elovaters performed for two nights during their Sunburn Tour 2026. The first night, on Friday January 30, 2026, was an incredible night of music. Almost five thousand enthusiastic fans attended the concert. The audience loved every minute of this excellent show.

I had photographed Magic City Hippies before and I was very excited to photograph them again and write a review on the Saturday night show at Paradise Rock Club. Despite the large amount of snow and the cold weather, I knew this show would be fantastic. Knowing that, I was able to brave the elements. It was a freezing cold night. The temperature dropped to 7 degrees Fahrenheit. To my surprise, I was not the only crazy music fan to show up at the venue. It was much closer to b

On January 28, 2026, Swedish heavy-meets-pop-meets-Satan rockers Ghost brought the ‘Skeletour’ to the Mohegan Sun Arena on an icy winter night.  The Swedes are doing something different for this tour – no cellphones allowed, attendees were required to stow away cell phones in venue-provided Yondr pouches, with the aim of enhancing the live experience and engaging the crowd.  I really liked the “NO” cellphone policy, heck when I started going to concerts in the 80’s we didn’t

It was a freezing cold night. The temperature dropped to14 degrees Fahrenheit, and the forecast predicted a huge snowstorm for Boston. Despite the cold weather, five hundred fans, the maximum allowed at the Brighton Music Hall, showed up on January 23, 2026, to listen to Reprise. It was an exceptional night of music.

The 5th Annual East Nashville Tribute to The Traveling Wilburys filled The Basement East on January 23 with something that felt increasingly rare. Not just great music, but shared purpose. Benefiting East C.A.N. (Community Action Network), the long-standing East Nashville nonprofit focuses on animal welfare and responsible pet ownership.

There’s a peace that occurs in the space between every song Alec Duckart plays. It’s not the dead, empty, painstaking air that infiltrates the typical silence as an artist tunes their guitar or gets a sip of water but instead an understanding that something very special is happening underneath Rockefeller Center.

Bumpin Uglies and Joey Harkum performed at The Met in Pawtucket, RI, on Saturday January 17, 2026. They were so exceptional that I spent many hours after the show listing the music swirl around in my head. The music, the vibe, the audience (sold out show), the socialization, the lighting on stage…everything was so perfect for a great night of music. The two groups performed in front of a group of dedicated fans who were there to listen to the incredible music.

State Champs played a sold-out show at the Fillmore in Philadelphia with Cartel and Real Friends. This show was part of their Celebrating 10 ears of Around the World and Back Tour.

Nashville rarely gets labeled a jam-band town and Spafford didn’t ask for permission. They just walked into the room and stretched the Music City until it snapped, then kept pulling.

I love Bob Weir’s music and all his different endeavors, from The Grateful Dead to The Wolf Brothers and to Dead and Company and many more bands. Losing Bob Weir is a musical tragedy to the entire world particularly to his millions of fans.
