I only had my phone with me so I didn’t get many photos but DAMN that was a good show.

Babyshaker finally released a new album! They threw their record release party at the Milestone and made it through almost an entire set before Scott finally gave up on singing through his migraine. I almost never get headaches so I can’t imagine standing on that stage with the lights, music, and yelling and [...]

Iron Cordoba’s Fighting Irish party was at a real gym this year: The Ultimate Gym in NoDa. They had to do quite a bit of work to get a stage, lights, sound system, and bar set up but it was nice to see a party/performance in a not only a different venue but a [...]
