I arrived at the All 6’s and 7’s tour at the Great Saltair and immediately felt a little out of place—I wasn’t aware that Tech N9ne’s fanbase is the Bloods. I’m glad I’m not in a gang so I can wear whatever color I want. … read more

Damn! These Heels 2011 Film Festival @ Tower Theatre 06.17-06.19

Damn! These Heels 2011 Film Festival @ Tower Theatre 06.17-06.19
By

When I approached the Tower Theatre at 6:30 p.m. on Friday June 17 the whole Ninth and Ninth corner was buzzing with activity. People were enjoying the patios at Coffee Garden and Barbacoa, there was a packed house at Mazza and a swarm of people were waiting in line to get into the theatre for the eighth annual Damn! These Heels LGBT Film Festival.

Title Fight @ Kilby Court 06.13

Title Fight @ Kilby Court 06.13
By

I’ve never been to a show at Kilby that had this insane of crowd—the amount of moshing and swinging from shit on the ceiling was so high that it was almost impossible to see Title Fight play. Regardless, Title Fight is super good live. They’re excellent at executing the right amount of pop-punk and hardcore music with Saves The Day-esque vocals. This is also why I’m not surprised they were the headlining band. … read more

Having seen Iron and Wine previously at the Twilight Concert Series, I expected a night of slow, sugary folk music and a lot of Mormon girls getting wet in the pants for Mr. Sam Beam––the man behind the magic. … read more

The prospect of seeing one moderately decent hardcore band in Provo’s cultural vacuum is enough to give me goose-pimples and a fluttering heart. The prospect of seeing four of them? Well, it’s enough to send me into full-blown histrionics … … read more

Dark Dark Dark @ Kilby Court 04.18
By

I’m at Kilby Court where and I can hardly contain my excitement for seeing Dark Dark Dark again. This time, I’m significantly less inebriated than the last time they came, so I could actually remember the set, because this band is awesome. As more time elapses, I can feel myself getting more anxious to see them play. … read more
