Even though I attend Punk Rock Bowling every year I don’t always shoot it. There are so many good bands to see and good friends to hang with that it can be a bit overwhelming. ...

Las Vegas' 16th annual Punk Rock Bowling festival began with a “bang," and though the actual festival didn't begin until Saturday, with huge names like Naked Raygun, Poison Idea, Off With Their Heads and Cro-Mags all playing sold-out shows downtown on Friday night, it was bound to be a night for the books. ...

One thing that Vegas gets that I think is fairly unique is the “I’m going to be in town for a wedding, might as well play a show” phenomenon. We got that just last year with American Football frontman Mike Kinsella and his Owen project, and this year, the honor goes to Jeff Rosenstock. ...

One of my favorite bands I've discovered while helping out with the site was The Shell Corporation during their Stripped Down Session back in 2012. I was impressed enough by their acoustic performance that I found them on Spotify and listened the whole way home from the shoot. I missed their Vegas show that evening and have been eagerly awaiting their return, which finally happened on Wednesday, May 7th at The Artistic Armory. ...

In support of their upcoming record Once More ‘Round The Sun, the mighty Mastodon returned to the House of Blues Las Vegas on May 3. I didn’t know what to expect for this stop – maybe we’d be treated to some new face-melting material? Or would the set be made up mostly of stuff from 2011’s The Hunter? ...
