George Lynch has always been a great songwriter & guitarist. Even though the first couple of Lynch Mob albums were picked apart by rock critics they all had to admit that the Lynch Mob was the real deal. Mr. Scary is at it again. Just caught up with one of my guitar idols, Mr. Scary […]

Glenn Hughes, Reviews

Although I’ve seen Glenn many times over the years with other bands like Trapeze, Deep Purple, Black Country Communion, Hughes and Thrall and Kings of Chaos, Glenn had never toured in the USA doing his solo work and we couldn’t have been happier to witness this epic show. It was a treat to just be […]

Earlier last month, BackStage3660 had the opportunity to witness Dweezil Zappa’s newest tour celebrating the 50th Anniversary of his father’s classic album “FREAK OUT” . Having seen Dweezil play about ten years ago, I liked his own personal style but this newest tour was special because he would be playing his dad’s album “Freak Out” in […]

It’s been a decade since the familiar voice of Steven Tyler has graced the ears of San Diegans, and leave it to the only mix-perience of it’s kind around, KAABOO Del Mar, to bring the legendary Aerosmith back to the most southern tip of California. There were thousands of people crowding around the Sunset Cliffs […]

Recent Hall of Fame inductees Hall & Oates played at the second annual KAABOO Festival and did not disappoint. The crowd went nuts as soon as they hit the stage with the opening song “MANEATER” and the crowd was into it big time. The moment that song was finished they went right into “Your Kiss”, […]

Gavin DeGraw hasn’t made a major chart-topper in awhile, but you wouldn’t know it when the crowd gathered in front of then Trestle’s stage at KAABOO. It first looked like hundreds, then out of nowhere…seconds before the lights came on, the crowd ballooned to a couple thousands fans, packed in like sardines, standing around in […]

Third-Eye-Blind brought their famous groove-rock out of the 90’s to San Diego’s KAABOO in a way that made it sound fresh and extremely relevant. The band, forming in the early 90’s during that awesome…JUST AWESOME…time when Alternative-Rock was smashing the airwaves across America, was in tip-top shape, showing the passion that must’ve brought them together […]

It’s been about a year since Jack Johnson played Farm Aid 2015, and that was the last time he stepped foot on an American stage until now…and if ever there was a stage designed for the likes of Jack Johnson, it is the San Diego exclusive…KAABOO Del Mar and one of the largest stages in […]

I came to KAABOO early on Saturday, day two of the non-festival mixperience, just to see this guy…Bryce Fox. The Indiana transplant to Los Angeles had some buzz around him leading up to his first festival performance and, spoiler alert…he killed it with a bittersweet moment on stage. The mid-westerner moved here to follow his […]

Chic featuring Nile Rodgers will be opening the show for Britain’s Fab Five and they will be featured in an upcoming issue of Backstage360, as they well deserve it. Nothing stopped […]
