I’m struggling this week with passing deadlines and a seemingly endless to do list. It doesn’t help that everything I attempt seems to be stymied in some way. The Ticketfly hack did its part to slow down any concert-related research and reporting. I don’t think I realized how many venue websites relied on Ticketfly until suddenly they were all down!
In the vein of more uplifting reports, I hope everyone made it to at least one of The Struts Roxy residency shows last week because WOW…that band puts on a show! I wish more bands would do multi-night gigs in smaller venues. I fully support that concept. One of the special guests the night I was there was Barns Courtney who you can catch this week at The Wiltern opening for The Kooks. Other calendar highlights include Matt Maeson at The Echo and the return of Coyle Girelli (The Chevin) to The Hotel Cafe.
