KANSAS Many years ago when I first heard Kansas I was immediately drawn to their music for their sheer musicianship. The beauty of their arrangements, the vocals, the songwriting, all were amazing. I remember the last time I saw this band live was at Roosevelt Stadium in NJ in the late 70’s. I was blown away […]
I didn’t know what to expect when I showed up on assignment to cover Mindi’s show at the Del Mar Fair. My first reaction was, I must say, surprised. First off, as truth in advertising may require, I’m not much of a smooth jazz fan. However, when Mindi came out with her band, “The Boneshakers” […]
June is upon us once again, the sun is shining, the smell on sunscreen is the air, and so are the sounds of the hustle and bustle emulating from the Del Mar Fairgrounds. On June 5th, the fair festivities at the Del Mar Fairgrounds began once again, this summer’s fair theme is ‘A Fair to […]
RIDIN SOUTH Mike Reilly remembers his first Rock album – THE ALLMAN BAND (’69). And he remembers when, the following year, he bought an album that totally changed his life – Freddy King’s Getting Ready. Mike, now thirteen, was ready-ready to play the Blues. Mike was sitting in with the likes of JOE COCKER and […]
Whitesnake are on the road in America, and they are taking no prisoners. David Coverdale is fronting one of the strongest bands of his career, and while the show is all his, he shares the glory and plays well with the other kids in the playground. If this band shows up in your neck of […]

(The Boxmasters Article – BackStage360) Having lived […]
The iconic rock band brought their arsenal of hits (and a ton of energy) to Harrah’s Rincon Casino Teasing the crowd with the first few notes of “Double Vision” the stage was lit with bright blue lights and a large “F” logo. When the band burst onto the stage, they were immediately met with a […]
By McKenna Filijan As a 19-year old girl and someone with no background knowledge of who Trixter is, my assumptions of their music were not completely wrong after a swift Google image search brought up pictures of a stereotypical longhaired dude band from the late 80’s. After getting a good image of glam rock and […]
ACCEPT While Blind Rage isn’t as dynamite as Blood of The Nations, it does improve upon Stalingrad, itself an excellent album. Of this new bevy of classics, Blind Rage most recalls Accept’s (first) heyday with riffs and choruses reminiscent of Restless And Wild and Metal Heart material. After “Stampede” appropriately opens the album, bulldozing […]
Age makes no Difference when it comes to a Kenny Loggins Show! With Caddyshack being a favorite of mine, I was introduced to the music of Kenny Loggins at a young age and every time I hear the sentence “I’m alright” I can still envision that gopher dancing around. But Kenny Loggins isn’t just […]
