Dave Matthews Band & Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeroes @ Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion

Dave Matthews Band

As I’m coming down from this Summerfest high I;ve been on since Saturday, I thought I’d catch up a bit on reviews before I start posting the loads of pictures from this past weekend. I had the opportunity to catch Dave Matthews Band return to the road when they started their tour off here in Houston at the Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion. As they always do, DMB brought along a solid choice of opener in freak-folkers Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeroes.

Roger Waters @ Toyota Center

Roger Waters @ Toyota Center

Last night, I had the opportunity to see Roger Waters, bassist and vocalist for legendary classic rock group Pink Floyd, for the third time. First, I caught the Dark Side Of The Moon tour when it hit Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion several years back, next when Waters brought The Wall to Houston for the first time two years ago, and finally last night with another go-around of The Wall at the Toyota Center. While mostly the same as the first time, Waters changed the show up just enough to keep me enthralled again.

UtopiaFest Preview: Suzanna Choffel

Oct 9, 2011 by

Austin songstress Suzanna Choffel has been entrancing audiences for over five years using her smoky vocals to tackle a blend of roots, jazz, and soul. If you’re a festival-going Texan, you’ve likely already caught her at one of the majors like Austin City Limits or Old Settler’s Music Festival – so seeing her in a more intimate, mellow setting like Utopia Fest should be a treat. Catch her Saturday at 2:30 on the Arrowhead Stage.

wakarusa 2010

In this country, it seems festival season never truly ends. Thankfully. But summer is always ripe with great festivals, coast to coast. In this neck of the woods Wakarusa usually kicks things off – and this year looks crazy + awesome + delicious. Missing a day isn’t an option.

The headliners are solid, and I’m excited about discovering new artists and others getting some well-deserved recognition. And let’s all assume this year the sun will favor us with temperatures under 100. Read on for a detailed preview of Thursday. Three weeks out!
