The long-anticipated Todd Rundgren solo record “Space Force” arrives in its entirety October 14.

Everyone’s favorite hometown band, Buffalo’s own Goo Goo Dolls came home to Keybank Center Saturday evening to close out their 2022 summer tour.
Oddly enough the last time the band played the arena was in 2003 as a special guest to headliner Bon Jovi that particular evening. The band seems to have played every major venue in town between that time. Let’s hope they just keep future shows at the arena as the atmosphere is so much better than any other venue in town.

Shinedown threw em a curveball by bringing in Nashville recording artists Jelly Roll and John Harvie. On paper it did not make sense but as vocalist Brent Smith would explain later on Rock and Roll is a spirit and any genre could fall under that umbrella. Continue reading

Amphitheater At Lakeview

They say great rock ‘n’ roll is timeless but in some cases critics may say the music sounds like it has not aged well. Let’s go with the former when talking about the Live and Unzoomed participants. Styx, REO Speedwagon and Loverboy have amassed 14 platinum studio albums, 14-Top 10 smash hits and 38-Top 40 songs between them. No wonder this date was added on after the initial tour announcement as the demand was there as evidenced by the near capacity house out at St. Joseph’s Health Amphitheater Friday evening.
