Treasure Island Feeds The Machine As Nickelback Plays Outdoor Amphitheater
Pop Evil started the night out warming the crowd up for Nickelback. I can’t say that I knew too much about this band, knowing only a couple of songs. They gave the audience something headliners Nickelback didn’t, and that’s music that was a little on the harder side. It was a great way to start […] More
Sylvan Esso Brings Joy to Minneapolis
It’s been nearly a year since charming electro-pop duo Sylvan Esso sold out a two-night stint at First Avenue. In the past year, they have managed to tour extensively across the country, release a sessions EP with friends reimagining songs from their newest album, and were nominated for a Grammy. That’s a big year! The […] More
Vince Neil Rocks The Island
The day started out slow (I’m not talking music-wise). Fans slowly crept in as the day wore on. They missed some great music as Quiet Riot, Great White, and Lita Ford hit the stage before a large portion of the crowd showed up to witness the last two acts: Tom Keifer of Cinderella and Vince […] More
Little Texas plays to rave reviews on Family Night at Buck Hill
What a complete flip of the script. Tuesday was rock night and the opening night at Buck Hill for their inaugural Concert Series. Little Texas came in tonight (Wednesday) for the second show, Country/Family Night, yet tonight rocked just as much as the night before, maybe even more. Starting out the evening show was local […] More
Loverboy Rocks Buck Hill In Inaugural Concert
With Loverboy hitting the slopes in this Inaugural Concert this is by far the best weather I’ve ever experienced at Buck Hill. It feel really strange to be in just a shirt, pants and shoes when I’m at Buck Hill, I feel like I should be dressed in about 14 layers of mixed clothing. I arrived […] More
Treasure Island Welcomes ZZ Top And John Fogerty For 1st Outdoor Concert of 2018
If you weren’t able to arrive at Treasure Island early, you were in store for an unfortunate surprise. From the moment we got in line to the venue, to the moment we passed through security was a full 90 minutes. It was the first outdoor concert of the year at the new Amphitheater, fell on […] More
Buddy Guy Wows Music In The Zoo Crowd
You couldn’t ask for a much better night to see Buddy Guy and the blues prodigy Quinn Sullivan perform for The Music In The Zoo Series. Yes, it was a touch warm, a slight breeze, but the beautiful scenery of The Weesner Family Amphitheater negated all that. Opening up for Buddy Guy was prodigy Quinn […] More

The Sky Clears Up For The Gin Blossoms at The Common Sound Music Festival
Mother Nature can be cruel at times, including today.

Revival Fest Kicks off Summer at Harmony Park
Festival season. Two words that make any music fan smile. In the oft-cold State of Minnesota, festival season offers not only a chance to see your favorite bands, but a respite from the draining winter months. The official “start” of festival season is up for debate, but in recent years I’ve settled on a simple […] More
Wet Performs at the Varsity on the Heels of Their New Album
I’ll just put it in writing right off the bat. I’m a sucker for mopey music. If you were to look at my Spotify stream history, or analyze the data off Last.fm (R.I.P? Is it still alive? I think I got an email about them updating their privacy policy, oh you too?) You’ll see a […] More
