REVIEW: Bob Weir & Wolf Bros x Cincinnati Pops Orchestra

For most fans of the Dead, you’re always chasing. Chasing the best version, the smallest difference in that show, the newest element, however, with this incredibly unique rendition of these songs, fans were able to see and hear these songs with a completely new lens.

Well I don’t know if it means good luck for all but it sure felt like there was magic all around Lexington, Kentucky and within Rupp Arena as the clock struck twelve.

REVIEW: Neal Francis at The Woodward Theater

Chicago’s Neal Francis has all that swagger and more. From his funk-driven tunes, that verge in the lanes of Yacht, Psychedelic, and all 70’s rock, to his funny quips on stage, acting as if he doesn’t care if he’s playing to a full house or an empty room.
