Concert Review: Metallica Helping Hands Concert Gives In More Ways Than One

November 14, 2020November 17, 2020 Drew

That was (mostly) awesome. Love them or forget them, call them a sell-out or it was over after 1989, call them what you will, but Metallica knows how to put on a show whether live in person, at the drive-in … Continue reading Concert Review: Metallica Helping Hands Concert Gives In More Ways Than One

Top 10 Best Coronavirus Songs

October 20, 2020October 27, 2020 Drew

UNPRECEDENTED! Tired of hearing it? So am I. But we do live in unprecedented times and we should probably just make “unprecedented” the title for 2020. Little did we know a year ago, concerts would come to a screeching halt … Continue reading Top 10 Best Coronavirus Songs

2018 marked a decline in the number of concerts attended from last year’s 20. Just 15 (still enough) with 18 bands seen, Metallica the only repeat. Like all years, I saw an array of styles ranging from folk to heavy … Continue reading Top 10 Concerts of 2018
