No joke, I just confused Silverchair with Silversun Pickups. You can see my confusion. Both have ‘Silver’ in their names and they both have kind of Smashing Pumpkins kind of sound. Anyhoo…The Silversun Pickups just announced a 2019 tour across the U.S. to support their latest album, ‘Widow’s Weeds.’ The first of 12 shows will kick off June 2 in...
Ah, this one takes me back to my late teens/early 20’s at the Vans Warped Tour at The World in Chicago. That also happens to remind me that I’m super old and The World has changed names like 5 times and Vans Warped Tour is no more (sad face). Taking Back Sunday recently announced that they will be celebrating their...
It’s been a wild summer for Weezer. They’ve of course been busy touring as they usually are, but now they’ve also got the cover of the century under their belts with their rendition of Toto’s Africa. To keep the party going, Weezer announced their follow up to 2017’s album, Pacific Daydream with their long-awaited ‘Black Album.” The album won’t be...
I’m pretty sure that we can all agree that Billy Corgan is kind of an odd dude. Great music…kinda odd. At any rate, Billy and his band The Smashing Pumpkins just dropped the news that they will be celebrating their 30th anniversary of the bands creation (yikes, I’m old) with a tour. Billy along with James Iha AND Jimmy Chamberlin...
After a very lengthy hiatus from touring, the Gorillaz are reinvigorated and ready to tour again after last summer.

Without doubt, probably the greatest live show I’ve ever seen was Echo & The Bunnymen at the Metro in Chicago. * Much to my excitement, they will be heading out on tour again this summer with the Violent Femmes for a co-headlining North American tour. This 11 city tour will kick off July 12 in San Antonio, TX and will...
This one I’m totally pumped about! My absolute favorite 90’s alt. rock chick (sorry Dolores and Courtney) just announced that she will be hitting the road this fall! Shirley Manson and her band Garbage will go out on tour to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their smash album, ‘Version 2.0’ (Related, OMG, I clearly remember the album coming out and...
For good reasons, indie rock band Sir Sly is currently getting more and more air play on the radios. They are seriously good. Now they have announced more 2018 tour dates for their upcoming tour in support of their new album, ‘Don’t You Worry, Honey.’ The tour kicks off June 6 in Grand Rapids, MI and will wrap up July...
Well, hot damn! I think one of the best bands to rise to fame in the 90’s just announced a summer tour. Radiohead will be hitting the road in support of their latest album, ‘A Moon Shaped Pool’ on a 16 date tour. The tour will kick off July 7 in Chicago, IL and will wrap up Aug. 1 in...
