Its been many years since I have seen Rush play and I'm glad I finally got to see them again. Rush has a very dedicated fan base and when tickets go on sale for their shows, they sell out in minutes. That was the case with this years Red Rocks show and is also why they added an additional second show to their Colorado run. The other reason these specific shows sold out so fast, is because Rush has been spending this tour covering their 1981 classic 'Moving Pictures' in its entirety.
The Grateful Web trekked out to lovely Telluride, Colorado last week for Phish's shows in one of the most majestic places to ski, ride and see some of the greatest bluegrass, jazz, and in this case one of the greatest live acts to ever grace the stage in Town Park. Phish, who has not played Telluride since their 1991 shows, was in fine form for what many anticipated to be the best run of the summer. The beauty of T
There’s something homey feeling about the idea of a man sitting out on his porch as the sun sets, plucking away at his guitar as he moves forward and back in a rocking chair.

The last couple of years New Monsoon have remained relatively quiet in the jam circuit. They haven't released a studio album since 2007, and they have been touring only sporadically, performing at a number of festivals and mostly West coast shows. The group has also gone through numerous lineup changes, losing three drummers and a handful of bassists, before finally settling in with the current five members. But the funny thing is....they have never sounded
Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers with Joe Cocker opening rocked a sold out, standing-room-only crowd at the Oracle Arena in Oakland, California, on the 5th of June, as the opening day of their 2010 Summer Tour across America.
What do you get out of attending a Phish show? What do you get out of attending MANY Phish shows? Why do you see live music performed at all? Surely you’ve fielded this question before; I know I have. A relative looks at you quizzically, or maybe it’s a co-worker... “You’re going out of town to see them, AGAIN?” They’d say, incredulously.
