Pierce the Veil at St. Andrew’s Hall 12/8/11 (Photos, Setlist & Concert Review)
Vic Fuentes – Vocals Mike Fuentes – Drums Jaime Preciado – Bass Tony Perry – Guitar http://www.piercetheveil.net The Lady Charmers from Pierce the Veil are on the final leg of a long tour that started out in South America, Europe, and finally the United States. They showed no signs of fatigue when they performed for the rowdy crowd at St. Andrew’s. One fun-lovin’ fan even threw her white bra on stage which caused the band to playfully chastise her. One highlight of the night was when Vic Fuentes performed from the middle of the crowd then expertly crowd-surfed back on to the stage. The guys from Pierce the Veil have great chemistry together, and…

Zakk Gallows, Cheerleader, Boom Swagger Boom and Rickett Pass @ Corktown Tavern 11/30/11 (Review)
Team Bacon Productions put together a solid show at Detroit’s Corktown Tavern this past Wednesday, November 30th despite The Goddamn Gallows canceling. The Goddamn Gallows’ guitarist Mikey Classic had stretched his tendons and nerves in his left hand. Since they tour almost two hundred shows a year, this was definitely understandable. They’ll be back this March with Reverend Horton Heat, so the extra wait will be worth it. Unfortunately, the potential crowd size was cut down significantly, which was a shame because people missed a good show. Zakk Gallows Cheerleader Boom Swagger Boom Rickett Pass Zakk Gallows was a pleasure to listen to. He played a country-inspired set filled with…

Puscifer at Masonic Temple in Detroit 11/19/11 (Concert Review, Setlist & Photos)
www.puscifer.com After a strong opening performance by Carina Round, who also performed with Puscifer, the audience hunkered back down into their seats to enjoy a funny skit featuring Billy D. Hildy Berger, Major Douche and Cherry Pie. Maynard James Keennan then walked on to the bare stage and began to build a campsite complete with fire, picnic space, trailer, and a “stinky hippy drum circle.” Mr. Keenan spoke to us in the shape of an eloquent monologue introducing the meaning of Puscifer and the evening’s performance. He spoke of sustainability. Sustainability is a strong word then can encompass many different human themes such as survival of the planet, the human…
