Electric Wizard live was a positively overwhelming, yet euphoric experience. The nature of the heavy, droning “doom” metal with the dozens of flashing lights and imagery of satanic, horror and colored effects playing across the background, added up to an evening that I cannot say I’ve ever seen before. I certainly look forward to experiencing it again though. ~ Kevin […]

When I heard Brazilian star Adriana Calcanhotto would be performing at I-Drive NASCAR, I thought I had misread the email. So I reread it – three times. My eyes did not deceive me and in fact, there was to be an entire event for Focus Brasil at I-Drive NASCAR. In addition to an indoor track, an arcade and an all-around […]
I’m no choir boy but walking past intense face/body paint, clothes made of bone and black leather, and sidelong glances from the folks in all this armor just to enter the venue was more than I bargained for.

A particularly big thank […]

I’ve seen many shows at the Plaza Live in Orlando, most of which usually end with being herded against extremely sweaty, exhausted, fans that you’d probably rather not breathe on you. Described as a synth-pop and contemporary R&B duo, Honne makes incredibly full-bodied music that is extremely pleasant to listen to. That said, I did not see how this excellent […]
If you’re like me and never saw Queen live because you weren’t alive yet, there is no question that this is the next best thing. I hesitate to even call One Night of Queen a “show” because it was so much more than that. The experience was exactly that: an experience. It’s impossible not to be swept away by the […]
