The Menzingers At A Sold Out Crescent

There is never a set time or age to self-reflect. You can do it at any time when you are collecting your thoughts. To think back on things that have come and adventures that have been. This was especially present in the past two years with the idle time of concerts and activities. Another place that it occurred was when The Menzingers released After the Party, reflecting on their twenties from their thirties. It was an album that hit perfectly for me being in that similar spot and age range…

I’d Call This A Mega Tour

August 19, 2021August 19, 2021 Every Show JoeAlternative Rock, Arizona, Arizona Federal Theatre, Descendents, Phoenix, Punk, Punk Rock, Rise Against, The Menzingers

There are concert lineups you don’t know how they came together, but you are happy they did. One of the more surprising in the past couple years for me, but makes sense after a minute to think about it, was Reverend Horton Heat, Fishbone, and Strung Out. While not as genre crossing, another three big names I didn’t expect to tour together would be the one from this night with Rise Against, Descendents, and the Menzingers at the Arizona Federal Theatre. More surprising is trying to figure out who headlines…

Best Albums of 2017: The Nationals Edition

January 5, 2018January 5, 2018 Every Show JoeAlestorm, Anti-Flag, Authority Zero, Bad Cop Bad Cop, Best Of 2017, Direct Hit, Fare Game, Flogging Molly, Matamoska, PEARS, Propaghandi, Redneck Nosferatu, Rozwell Kid, The Bombpops, The Bronx, The Lillingtons, The Menzingers

While the locals list is certainly the more special list to me, that national list is a good glimpse into my personal taste. The national list of favorites I expanded to fifteen to include bands that aren’t local, but would be considered local if I did live in their city. There was certainly a couple that I felt blended in and beat a few of the national acts. So with that in mind, let’s go down the list from fifteen to my favorite album of 2017. Side note, a couple…

Indeed, Viva PHX

I’ve been going to Viva PHX since it started. I think it is hands down, the best music festival that is put on in the Phoenix area all four years. The price proposition to the amazing amount of great music in about twenty places certainly contributes to it. That is in addition to that I love it more due to the atmosphere of music around downtown Phoenix. Viva PHX is the hearing music bouncing through alleys and off buildings walking through downtown Phoenix. This year was no different, just bouncing…
