Event Reviews
Band Marino, As Tall As Lions
Promoted as being headlined by Long Island's soft Indie Rock crooners, As Tall As Lions, an early show at Orlando's BackBooth was shuffled to allow Alt. Country talents, Band Marino to close the night. Jen Cray woke up early to make door time.
Boris
From bludgeoning drone metal to rockin' human pyramids, Boris and Guitar Wolf brought their heavy artillery to this Tokyo gig. Heather Lorusso has your dispatch from the frontline.
In the Fur
Who says you have you pay a lot of money for a good concert? Brittany Sturges, after an evening of up-and-coming Philadelphia talent, wholeheartedly disagrees.
Smoking Popes
The Smoking Popes remind us of a time when Pop/Punk wasn't an insult, and bands didn't have to try so hard to be cool. The recently reunited Chicago band brought their sounds to Orlando and Jen Cray checked in for the fun.
The Quakes
20 Years of Psychobilly starring The Quakes, 7 Shot Screamers and Twisted In Graves has drawn out an impressive number for a Thursday night, including Jen Cray.
The Whigs
The Whigs have no affilliation with Greg Dulli's Afghan Whigs, but Jen Cray found their 90's Indie Rock nostalgia irresistible anyway.
X, Rollins Band
As the World Burns, legendary L.A. punk bands tour the country with their original lineups, and give the fans something to get excited about! X and Rollins Band have hit the tour circuit bringing Texas' Riverboat Gamblers along for the ride. Jen Cray was right down front.
