Mdou Moctar (6/20/24)

It’s going to be hard to beat seeing Mdou Moctar anywhere as good as their 2019 performance at Now That’s Class (now No Class).  This night they sold out the Beachland Ballroom and they matched the heat outside.  Another blistering performance.

Joe Pug (6/19/24)

Always happy to see Joe Pug perform, despite being a week night at Akron’s Musica.  Bonus points for being on Juneteenth and having the rest of the week off!   He’s always the consummate performer on stage.

The real bonus of the night was getting familiar with Dustin Mayle!

The Halluci Nation (6/15/24)

I was killing a little time before heading to crobar, so I decided to swing by and catch The Halluci Nation at The Aslyum at Masonic Auditorium.  I had first caught up with this band back in 2012 with their A Tribe Called Red album, and was glad to see see them putting out music!  Not a bad show, but was *really* glad I had my ear plugs for this one.

Orville Peck (6/7/24)

This show wasn’t originally on my agenda, until the $25 LiveNation special came about - and I had family coming into town to visit.  It was a perfect opportunity to take my Sister and Niece to see a fun show at a great downtown music venue.  We even scored floor access wristbands!

A Beacon School (6/6/24)

A friend put me on to A Beacon School, and another friend knew the opener Wish Queen.  It was shaping up to be a great night of music and it didn’t dissapoint.
