Event Reviews

Angels & Airwaves

Angels & Airwaves soared into Orlando recently, with a slew of young bands in tow. Jen Cray gave them a shot, but was not quite convinced.

Daniel Johnston

Chris Catania braved Chicago's blizzarded streets to get a dose of Daniel Johnston's therapy.

Dillinger Escape Plan

After Disney refused to allow Dillinger Escape Plan to play their Orlando House of Blues date alongside metalcore heavyweights Killswitch Engage, the NJ band booked their own show at The Social. Jen Cray, and a few hundred other fans, eagerly came out to see them.

Foo Fighters

Foo Fighters ensured a buzz-worthy concert event when they brought along Jimmy Eat World and Against Me! for an evening of big rock in Orlando. Jen Cray was not about to miss this unforgettable night.

Marilyn Manson

Marilyn Manson kicked off their U.S. leg of the Rape of the World Tour in front of a sold out crowd at Orlando's Hard Rock Live. Jen Cray was in the middle of the madness.

The Dollyrots

The Dollyrots and Suffrajett conquer a small crowd in Orlando, Jen Cray included.

Uncle Earl

Are you ready for the country? Zep-approved bluegrass collective Uncle Earl stop Chris Catania in his tracks with a ferocious Chicago set.

Valencia & Armor for Sleep

Brittany Sturges can't recall the last time she saw an entire bill attract such a positive response from a Philadelphia crowd.

Ween

Ween dominates Orlando with a marathon set! Phillip Haire prostrates himself at the altar of brothers Dean and Gene.

Xavier Rudd

Austrailia's answer to Paul Simon and Jack Johnson, one man band folk artist Xavier Rudd, brought his melodic spin on world music to Orlando. Jen Cray was just one amongst many who packed into The Social to witness the event.
