The almighty Converge commandeered the stage of The Senate in Columbia, SC this past Friday. This was the first “club show” of this run of tour dates. I’ve been watching this band since 1999 and they still bring all the energy that amazed a very young version of me. I remember seeing them at Tremont Music Hall the week “Jane Doe” was released. I was like “What the hell am I witnessing? This is amazing” Jacob Bannon and co blasted

It’s been some time since The Gaslight Anthem hiatus. I was able to catch a 10-year anniversary show for “59 Sound” in 2018 at the 930 club in Washington DC.

The former space which was home to Upstream has now reopened as the beautiful Limani Charlotte restaurant! The Greek-inspired Mediterranean bistro, opened in Phillips Place and I had the pleasure of having a first look. Quality ingredients and an emphasis on simplicity yield light, clean dishes that pop with flavor and showcase the deft yet subtle hand of Executive Chef M.J. Alam and his local culinary team. Limani makes a bold first impression, with an open, airy and

I always say this is the last time I will rebuild my paddleboard. However, this time I got it pretty darn close to sitting on my needs. Everything is neatly loaded on a PedalTrain Pro Pedalboard With Touring Case. I had been looking at loopers and pedal switchers, but the more I delved in, the Earthquaker Devices -Swiss Things was a better suit for me. After quiring one I had to map out my signal
