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 […]

I’ve never been to a festival before KAABOO Del Mar’s non-festival ‘mixperience’ appeared in San Diego last year. That decision has mainly been by choice, after the recounts and painful stories I’ve heard from friends who have travelled the distances. Horror stories about the smell of porta-johns, carnival-style fried foods, and virtually nowhere to cool […]

The Struts hit the stage right on time and from the outset it was apparent that this band was the real deal. I for one had never seen this band live but had heard their single “IT COULD HAVE BEEN ME” and their latest one “KISS THIS” from their new album EVERYBODY WANTS. What I […]

This year, as did the previous year, KAABOO featured a diverse selection of artists. One of those featured artists this year was the incomparable Orianthi. At first most people may have only been impressed by her looks. Of course that was only until they heard her amazing guitar skills. Now I’ve seen her play many […]

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 […]

As the members of Collective Soul took the stage you could feel the electricity in the air. The crowd was screaming with excitement when they kicked it off with “Heavy” a Monster Riff driven song from the 1999 album Dosage. Keep the heavy power chords coming and start into the song “Why PT.2” from 2000’s […]

The Parrot head’s appeared to be dancing and swaying before the music even started, but maybe that was because of the copious amounts of alcohol consumed on day one of KAABOO Del Mar, where a crazy San Diego week’s end demanded a touch of the tropics. Jimmy Buffett and The Coral Reefer band were sure […]

The younger set came out in force at KAABOO this year to support Indie-Rock stars Cold War Kids. The band did not disappoint. Starting off the concert with 2014’s release “All this could be yours” from the album Hold my Home, gave the audience a chance to pump their fist and chant the repetitious chorus […]
