Lollapalooza- Chicago
Chicago Hosts The Mega Fest I have always wanted to attend Lollapalooza and finally this year it has happened. Created as a farewell tour for Jane’s Addiction in 1991, it became an annual touring collection of alternative rock bands that helped launch the careers of Nine Inch Nails and Pearl Jam.

The Underdog Wins
Catch Fire and Havana Affair Release New Music Another night in Nashville and another gem of a dive bar found to watch local and live music. Finding these spots is like collecting medals for myself.

That usually means that the shows can feel more intimate and up-close,…
