Event Reviews

Brand New

Brand New and Thrice play the first of a pair of sold-out Orlando dates.

Leonard Cohen

Matthew Moyer finds himself in the same concert hall as Leonard Cohen, holy clown, dour prophet, borscht belt crooner, and true legend -- in Tampa, Florida, no less.

Ink 19 guest contributor Jeff Schweers gets a high-class thrill from gorgeous red-haired maven Neko Case, who recently gifted Floridians with a long-overdue songfest. Top of the balls to you, Neko!

Revolting Cocks

Revolting Cocks' Lubricatour Tour sideswipes Orlando, nearly creaming Phillip Haire.

Strike Anywhere

Strike Anywhere turns a room full of strangers into a family with their well-measured mix of melodic punk and angry politics.

Teenage Bottlerocket

Keeping it simple but not stupid, Teenage Bottlerocket and a host of others helped make Jen Cray's evening enjoyable and yes, quite punk.

Wilco

Wilco wraps up a marathon North American tour at home in Chicago with the usual mix of musical precision, chemistry, and warmth.
