Worst gig ever!

Published Monday, March 11

Even a casual music fan can conjure up an image of a favorite concert. We breathe it all in: the sounds, the sights, the feeling of unity in the building (or outside at a festival). It might have cost a lot to get it, but it was worth it. On the flip side, most of us can also remember a time we felt robbed.

Eastside Music Tour

Published Thursday, Feb. 21

We all love our bar crawls here in Milwaukee. But what about a music crawl? Over 50 bands. More than 25 local businesses. One street. One day. $15.

The Darkness

Published Thursday, Jan. 24

After hitting it big across the globe with their 2003 falsetto-blasting hit, "I Believe in a Thing Called Love," The Darkness became a name relegated to one-hit wonder countdowns and early `00s nostalgia trips. But the lights couldn`t stay down on the heavy metal glam rockers for long.

Silversun Pickups

Published Monday, Dec. 10

It`s been a little over five months since the Silversun Pickups left their mark here in Milwaukee when they gave support to mega-rockers Foo Fighters at this year`s Summerfest. But the crowd at The Rave on Saturday night was ready for round two, as they patiently waited for and welcomed a headlining tour to return to our neck of the woods. (Pun intended.)

Patrick Watson

Patrick Watson is a great name for a singer-songwriter musician. The only problem is that Patrick Watson isn`t a singer-songwriter. Patrick Watson is a Canadian indie band that was formed by lead vocalist Patrick Watson, but it`s by no means just Patrick Watson.

Aimee Mann at The Pabst

Published Monday, Nov. 12

Touring in support of her latest album, "Charmer," Aimee Mann returned to Milwaukee for an impressive performance at The Pabst Theater Sunday night.

Matt & Kim

Published Friday, Nov. 9

Escaping the grip of an impending winter in Wisconsin, a primarily young crowd packed The Rave Thursday night to see Brooklyn indie pop duo Matt Johnson and Kim Schifino, otherwise simply known as Matt & Kim.

Soundgarden

Published Friday, Nov. 9
