Charlotte Sands at The Deluxe 9.7.22

September 08, 2022 by Josh Custer in Show Review, Concert

The only thing from this show that I don’t understand is how there weren’t more people there. Charlotte has a very passionate fanbase, and currently has 1.8 million monthly listeners on Spotify; however at this show the numbers may not have reflected that. This is an artist that is poised to make major waves through out the genre and industry, and has been doing that with many of the guest spots she has had and tours she has opened for. 2023 is going to be her year, her name will be everywhere and she will be playing sold out shows in no time as the headliner.

August 25, 2022 by Josh Custer in Show Review, Concert

If you would have told me as I was graduating high school that 20 years later I would still get to see Korn, Evanescence, and Helmet not only making music but touring together I don’t think I would have believed you. However, on Wednesday August 24th, 2022 that is exactly what I saw. There was a sea of fans, ranging from life long fans, to new fans, some looking for nostalgia, and some looking for a rock show. None that attended could have left disappointed.

To say that Coheed and Cambria are iconic or legendary feels like an understatement. The energy that this band gives off is absolutely incredible, between the guitar work of Claudio and his vocals the band has always had fans hooked. Then you add in the storytelling that they accomplish through their songwriting, they are truly second to none when it comes to concept albums, cohesive stories, and the translation of their art.

Flogging Molly, Violent Femmes & THICK at the TCU Amphitheater 9.4.2021

September 06, 2021 by Josh Custer in Show Review, Concert

To say that Flogging Molly is iconic or legendary feels like an understatement. The energy that this band gives off is absolutely incredible, I have seen hundreds, if not thousands of bands and shows, and this one is near the top of the list for the most energy, crowd involvement, and just overall fun. Playing a wide variety of their hits from their 24 year career and even giving fans a listen to new material. There was not a single person the in the audience that didn’t have a good time during their set.

KoRn and Staind Rock Ruoff Home Mortgage Music Center

August 29, 2021 by Josh Custer in Show Review

If you’ve ever been a fan of Staind, or KoRn I highly suggest you get out and see this tour if it is near you. Again with Jonathan Davis recovering from COVID-19 do not let that stop you from seeing this show, he still puts out everything he possibly can for fans.
