The Flobots: Live at The Aggie

If you recall, I gave the Flobots a rave review when I saw them at Big Gig 2010 over the summer.  I pledged to see them live every chance I could, so when I heard they were going to be playing in Fort Collins, I knew I had to go.  I gathered up some friends, [… Read More]

Brandon Flowers: Live at The Ogden

As you are all (hopefully) well aware of, I consider Brandon Flowers to be one of my future husbands – he’s number four on the Would Marry List after all!  So of course I bought his solo album Flamingo as soon as it came out.  And of course I decided I would see him in [… Read More]

Big Gig 2010

I had been looking forward to the 2010 Big Gig for quite awhile – as soon as I heard The Smashing Pumpkins were headlining, I was in!  I honestly didn’t care much about the rest of the lineup, but I was pleasantly surprised by some of the bands and I will be seeing them again [… Read More]

VAST – Live

Normally I really enjoy seeing bands I like performing live.  I’m not sure if it was the atmosphere, the time of night, or the band itself, but I have to say that seeing VAST was a little disappointing. Part of the problem may be that I am less familiar with their more recent work than [… Read More]

Fall Out Boy – Live

This show came with not one, but four opening bands, if you can believe that.  Because things have to start sooooo early here, the doors were at 5 PM.  That’s right internets, before people get off work.  Moral of the story: don’t see concerts in Utah. Anyway, because the doors were so early, I missed [… Read More]

The Airborne Toxic Event – Live

My guess is that y’all have heard their single, Sometime Around Midnight.  I fell in love with the song as soon as I heard it, and got a copy of the whole album from a friend.  That friend found out about a week ago that the band was coming to town, so we decided we [… Read More]

Katy Perry – Live

As soon as I heard that Katy Perry was coming to town, I knew I had to go.  I was hooked by this girl from the first moment I heard I Kissed A Girl. Before I go to any show, I always have worries that they just won’t be good in person.  And I don’t [… Read More]

The Killers – Live

I recently had the fortune to see The Killers live in concert.  I can honestly say I haven’t seen a live show this good in years.  I absolutely loved it! The opening band was called M83, which I liked quite a lot and intend to get their music as well.  Normally I don’t like opening [… Read More]
