There are definitely a few prerequisites for a memorable rock show: good bands, a crowd willing to sweat for it, and a room that doesn’t just hold sound but weaponizes it. That’s exactly what unfolded February 22nd at Eastside Bowl’s new room, The 58, a 225-capacity echo chamber named after the exact gold paint mixture from the 1958 Gibson Les Paul Goldtop, specially granted to the venue by Gibson. Not a metaphor. The real thing.

Bush performed a sold-out solo show at the Wind Creek Events Center on Friday February 20th. The venue had an open pit floor and raised seated sections to each side; there were so many fans in the pit that it overflowed into the concession area behind the venue floor.

I was invited, to STS9’s concert in Boston, take a few photos and write a review. The show was at Big Night Live, a luxury, multi-level music hall. I have photographed a lot of Jam bands, but I have never seen STS9, and I was not sure what to expect. STS9, an acronym for Sound Tribe Sector 9, is an American instrumental band renowned for their distinctive “livetronica” sound. Formed in 1996, the quintet masterfully blends elements of electronic music, jazz, funk, rock, an

On Revisions, MYLO BYBEE distills emotional urgency into a collection of songs that feel both deeply personal and widely relatable. The Boise-based alt-rock band blends melodic introspection with bursts of raw, driving energy, creating a sound that feels lived-in rather than manufactured. Each track unfolds with intention, allowing vulnerability to coexist with momentum - reflection giving way to release. There’s a quiet confidence here - not in perfection, but in honesty.

Again, it may be 2026, but it feels like it's 2006 with releases from Goldfinger, Story of the Year, and now New Found Glory. New Found Glory is set to release their 11th studio album, “Listen Up!” on February 20th, 2026, through Pure Noise Records. This album is energetic, aggressive, features meaningful and purposeful lyrics, and demonstrates why New Found Glory are legends in the pop-punk genre.

Valentine’s Day is usually for candlelight, roses, and pretending you enjoy prix-fixe menus. Instead, hundreds of people gathered to scream about emotional damage together at Marathon Music Works for the 10-year anniversary of Emo Night Nashville, brought together by Nashville Is The Reason. Romance, but make it eyeliner.

On February 12, 2026, Umphrey’s McGee performed two sets at The Citizens House of Blues in Boston as part of their “Sky’s the Limit” tour, drawing of fans.

ommy James & The Shondells returned to Penn’s Peak in Jim Thorpe, PA on February 14th for a Valentine’s night of rock, romance, and groovy 60s reminiscence. Though this event was postponed from its original date of mid-October, it was hard to be annoyed that they had somehow picked the perfect date to reschedule it for. Groups of lovers flocked to the top of the chilly mountain this past Saturday, their hearts set on taking in all the legendary tunes.

Puscifer released their concert film Normal Isn’t: Live at the Pacific Stock Exchange on February 9th, 2026. Before its release for at home purchase and viewing, select brick and mortar vinyl shops offered free screening parties. To my surprise, the town that I work in was hosting a screening party.

How can I get enough? Yes, I have once again traversed up to the great white north for a double close encounter of the Gowan kind. When the Strange Animal comes around, I’ve got to follow! To say these shows were “unexpected” would only be scratching the surface of how surprised I was to hear that this king of the airwaves intended to come back to Ottawa after only 9 months of absence. Gowan (along with myself and several of my friends) recently spent a few warm January night

Six months on from the start of the Ad Astra tour, Northern Irish rockers Ash returned to London’s Scala having once again sold out the King’s Cross venue. At a mere 34 years young, Ash’s line up of Tim Wheeler (vocals and guitar), Mark Hamilton (bass) and Rick McMurray (drums) remain the same as day one, but the act that follows is not just resting on their early career, but an indie rock tour de force through a career that has never lulled.

Although it's 2026, it seems like 2006 with new releases from Goldfinger, New Found Glory, The Ataris, and Story of the Year. Story of the Year will be launching their 8th studio album, "A.R.S.O.N.," on February 13th, 2025, featuring some of their heaviest work to date.

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
