 Georges A. Gauthier Where rock, blues & traditional Tuareg folk meet, Mdou Moctar reminds us we share more in common than that which separates us. A Hendrix/Touré worthy performance. They had such genuine pleasure playing, it elevated this show at the Corona into experience. Parquet Courts / Mdou Moctar Oct 31, 2025
 Georges A. Gauthier How do Parquet Courts navigate the chaos dimension Live? Through exemplary transitions, clarity & control. Using an eclectic tapestry of sound, astounding sense of rhythm, they know when to break & when to flow through their playful set. Parquet Courts / Mdou Moctar Oct 31, 2025
 Georges A. Gauthier Apparently people who go to Mitski shows also enjoy adolescence, amateurish pop crap with the production level and artistry of drunken karaoke. It was cringe-worthy to sit through Michelle and I was an embarrassed to be in the crowd. Mitski / Michelle Oct 31, 2025
 Georges A. Gauthier I tried to not be put off by the screaming children overwhelming Mitski’s delicate voice. I tried to listen to her band, I tried to appreciate the irony of her lyrics. I failed. Before the onslaught of insufferable hormones I walked out. If you’re a fan & over 18, stay away. Mitski / Michelle Oct 31, 2025
 Georges A. Gauthier William Prince was deeply satisfying. Like carbs for the soul. He nourished and comforted with his rich voice, meaningful songs and charismatic banter. Above all, he exuded gratitude while inspiring it. William Prince Oct 31, 2025
 Georges A. Gauthier Some bands feed on the crowd. Not Soccer Mommy. Despite an enthused crowd you got the sense she either didn’t want to be there or didn’t want us watching. The band sounded great but was inanimate as the lights and set. She’s an Expressive artist, just not a generous one live. Soccer Mommy Oct 31, 2025
 Georges A. Gauthier Low are capable of wielding delicate vocal harmonies and distortions like a scalpel with equal precision. These sonic surgeons performed with exquisite fidelity Low / Divide And Dissolve Oct 31, 2025
 Georges A. Gauthier Beguiling blues artist Adia Cictoria rocks on stage with her booming Nashville band. Sultry, sexy & even a bit scary, she radiates power & poise that might have condemned her as a witch in a darker past but demands to be celebrated in an enlightened age. Adia Victoria Oct 31, 2025
 Georges A. Gauthier A mechanical economy of motion translates into efficiency. The efficiency ACTORS display in transitions, songwriting and solos translates into energy on stage. With punk-like simplicity and goth-infused style they are effortlessly cool and powerfully watchable. Actors Oct 31, 2025
 Georges A. Gauthier A night of disappointments. Due to an overly onerous security check at Olympia I missed all but the last minutes of Black Mountain’s set. At least is sounded pretty good from what I heard bleeding through the emergency exit doors while in line. Primus / Black Mountain Oct 31, 2025
 Georges A. Gauthier While they are musically competent and sounded fine, I’m not a Primus fan. I was lured to the show under false pretences. This was supposed to be a tribute show to Rush’s A Farewell To Kings. When I left after 75 min they hadn’t played a single note of Rush. Primus / Black Mountain Oct 31, 2025
 Troy Marchant Wolfheart was originally on this tour and eventually dropped off before the tour. Ghost Bath, Vale of Pnath, and Stormruler were added later. Borknagar / Rotting Christ / Abigail Williams / Ghost Bath / Vale of Pnath / Stormruler Oct 31, 2025
 Georges A. Gauthier Remaining one of the best performers, Aurora never fails to make her crowd feel something. Be it though her voice, her grace or her banter, her earnestness makes even the ever growing venues remain intimate and the experience personal. AURORA / Sub Urban Oct 31, 2025
 Georges A. Gauthier Into the vacuum of 2020 Helena Deland breathed an enchanting album called Someone New. Last night she shared her intimate and delicate songs @ Metropolis. She asked if it was haunted because she heard voices? Crowd noise aside, there was indeed a ghostly beauty to her performance. Leif Vollebekk / Helena Deland Oct 31, 2025
 Georges A. Gauthier Maybe in part due to the Metropolis, but Leif Vollebekk has sounded better. Harsh tones, mute sax & irregular tempos that challenged his rhythm section made it all a bit sloppy. Also, I’m not sure about his new 70’s dad rock direction? Maybe the album will redeem the experience? Leif Vollebekk / Helena Deland Oct 31, 2025
 Georges A. Gauthier Gazing, grimacing or quixotically smiling. She moves like a broken doll in a Lynch film. There is no performance like Aldous Harding She is highly affected. Which is effective at being affecting. In a word, she’s glorious. & her mom is Canadian! Aldous Harding Oct 31, 2025
 Georges A. Gauthier Also, I applaud her caring but I wish Phoebe Bridgers was more focused on performing and less on overprotecting every drunk kid in the crowd. Let security do its job and you do yours. Phoebe Bridgers / Claud Oct 31, 2025
 Georges A. Gauthier It’s a good show. Band sound great, her voice is clear and true. Phoebe, however, is not very charismatic. Even with guitar changes every song, stunning visuals & adoring fans, this introspective songwriter could never comfortably stand on pedestal her popularity placed her upon. Phoebe Bridgers / Claud Oct 31, 2025
 Georges A. Gauthier Luc de LaRochellière doing a complete review of his Sauvez Mon Âme album with the original touring musicians was a charming flash back to the early nineties. He remains a fantastic performer with charismatic anecdotes for each track. Luc De Larochellière Oct 31, 2025
 [email protected] Steely Dan's first tour. They opened for the Kinks on this date. Steely Dan Oct 31, 2025
