Slideshow: Dinosaur Jr. at First Avenue at First Avenue on 11/18/09
By: Erik Hess[Read full review]
HowWasTheShow is proud to present Erik Hess's photo slide show from Dinosaur Jr. at First Avenue. Dinosaur Jr. roared through First Avenue on a chilly November night, bringing new and old songs to an almost sold-out crowd. Fans at the show covered a pretty wide range; from hip 30- and 40-somethings to a younger crowd that weren't even born before J Mascis started his 25-plus year musical career. Psych-folkers MV & EE opened up the night with a sleepy blend of acid-tinged folk...

Animal Collective at First Avenue on 5/20/09

Animal Collective at First Avenue - Twitpic courtesy of Chuck Olsen Last night I saw Animal Collective at First Avenue. It was my first time seeing them live (though we reviewed their 2007 First Avenue appearance here.) I’d been eagerly anticipating the show after enjoying Merriweather Post Pavilion, their highly-praised 2009 album and one of my favorite discs of the year. MPP hits some of the emotion...

By: Donette Ambrosy[Read full review]
King Khan and the Shrines - Photo by Jenn Barnett More photos forthcoming. My anticipation for what I expect to be a really great show can sometimes get me overly wound up, prompting me to engage in uncharacteristically sassy and even unsavory behavior. The King Khan & The Shrines show at the Triple Rock on Saturday, May 16 was no exception. I should have known the evening would be raucous f...

By: Amber Schadewald[Read full review]
The Kills - Photo by Amber Schadewald As the dial tone and telephone sound intro to their set began, the crowd hush only slightly, too excited to hold back their screams of anticipation. My knees went weak as the two figures dressed in black let out their first notes to “U.R.A. Fever”, the bass tones hitting my chest with a erotic thrust, followed by strong, smoky voca...
