I've given Jackson Browne plenty of chances - I've seen him live four times now - but it's official: the guy is boring. His show at the Auditorium Theatre on Friday was a yawn fest, but his fans ate it up. I have to admit, Browne has the best...

Eve To Adam brought the heat and the people to their feet Thursday night at Montage Music Hall. Despite the band's leather-clad tightness, there was a ragged excitement that bled cool throughout the joint. This band is clearly (hopefully) the...

Saturday night I started off at Water Street Music Hall where I see-sawed between both the main stage and the club side. Mrs. Skannotto opened up its set with an atmospheric, surrealistic preamble that resembled Pink Floyd. Adding to this...

Indie-folk hero Andrew Bird filled the Harro East Ballroom with his gloriously global sound on Wednesday night. The Chicagoland singer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist is an undeniable musical genius. In 1996 Bird received a bachelor's degree...

I'll admit-I came out to Sunday night's Never Shout Never show at Water Street for one reason, my boys in the Naples, Florida-based rock outfit Fake Problems. And it was clear through most of the bands on the bill that I didn't have the...

Up until last night I had experienced nothing quite like The Flaming Lips. That's because up until last night I had never experienced The Flaming Lips. With what can only be described a celestial pageantry, this band blew my doors off when it...
