The 4th annual Rockstar Energy Drink Uproar Festival landed out at the Darien Lake PAC Sunday. The weather couldn’t have been better as an enjoyable day of music and fun in the sun was enjoyed by all. Considering this was only the third date on the tour, things seemed to go smoothly with the change over of bands. Continue reading →

Occasionally you go to a show and you kind of know what to expect. After all having seen Buckcherry numerous times in the past, one thing I knew is they deliver a quality, rocking show every time out. This is one band that you will never see going through the motions or mailing it in. Braun’s Concert Cove had a vibe like it never had before as Josh Todd and the rest of Buckcherry played a show of epic proportion Monday evening. Continue reading →

The 2013 edition of Under The Sun featuring Smash Mouth, Sugar Ray, Gin Blossoms, Vertical Horizon and Fastball played to an appreciative crowd at CMAC Saturday evening. Under The Sun’s origin takes us back to 2012 when Sugar Ray’s Mark McGrath and Everclear’s Art Alexakis teamed up to bring you the similar summer tour last year entitled Summerland. However the two had a little disagreement about the direction of the tour which led to each doing their own tours this summer. McGrath said his plans were to make Under The Sun an annual tour.

The fans from the blue collar town of Buffalo, New York have been deprived of seeing David Coverdale & Whitesnake play live for over twenty years. In some cases the only way to see some bands is to take a road trip. So when their tour itinerary was released with Greensburg, PA being the closest headlining show it was a no brainer to check it out seeing how I missed them on their last tour in 2011.

Dave Mustaine’s Gigantour 2013 touched down at The Constellation Brands-Marvin Sands Performing Arts Center, (CMAC for short), this past Saturday. The blistering heat made for an uncomfortable afternoon but helped sell a ton of beverages to help cool things down a little. Stagehands and techs helped keep the changeover between acts to a minimum and seemed to be running smooth when transitioning one act to another. Continue reading →
