Concert Synopsis
Peter Wolf
The Fillmore
Detroit, Michigan
Friday April 17, 2026

Peter Wolf and the J. Geils Band have had a long lasting relationship with the city of Detroit. Oddly enough the Geils band hailed from Boston, Mass.  Name a venue from Detroit’s storied history and odds are the band played there. That includes such landmark venues as Pine Knob Music Theatre (DTE Energy Music Theatre), The Palace of Auburn Hills, Cobo Arena, The Grande Ballroom and the Cinderella Concert Hall. Heck they even played Ford Field and the Silverdome. The band also played its final show ever as the J.Geils Band on September 11, 2015.  That Cinderella venue was where the band’s landmark live album Full House was recorded. Continue reading →

OLG Stage at Fallsview
Niagara Falls, Ontario
Review/Photos: Joseph Suto

An amazing double bill featuring Glass Tiger and Trooper dazzled the sold out crowd at OLG Stage Friday evening. Both bands sounded amazing and the crowd was fantastic. It is not too often one is treated to a double bill of bands who were popular during different eras of music. Glass Tiger hit their peak in the 1980’s gearing more to the pop side of things while Trooper’s breakthrough came in the form of classic rock in the 1970’s. Continue reading →
