Another beautiful Sunday night in Santa Barbara and what better way to spend it than with PRIMUS. Before I get into that Wolfmother opened and they did a solid job performing a good mix of new and old and some covers to a unenthusiastic audience. They were saving their energy for the main act that came onto the stage nice and early around the 8pm mark, and since curfew is 10pm this should make for a solid 2 hour Primus show, [...]

For reals, my right ear has not been the same since. I should have worn ear plugs to the show, especially because of all the brutality I have but my poor eardrums through this past week, (Rage, Dead Weather and Tool) luckily the ringing has stopped. Oh the show? Out of all the shows I saw this past week this one took the feedback cake.
First off the drive [...]

Before I start, milestone in Red Meat Reviews history, this is my 100th Post!!!! To commemorate this monumental moment I have picked a show to review that is near and dear to my heart. In true meat fashion lets get into it.
RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE played the Hollywood Palladium last Friday, I can stop right there, but you know I wont.
Needless to say this show RULED. The set list [...]

Wednesday night, Hollywood Palladium, sold out show, blue motifs, whiskey smells and a whole lotta cigarettes describe this ultra rock show that Dead Weather put on. Allison came out looking like she was lost in 80′s rocking a Axel Rose hair cut looking super sexy while smoking and flicking madd cigs. Jack White was talking crazy amounts off shit having fun and even handing out some beer to some [...]

This was a bitter sweet show for yours truly. I love me some LCD Soundsytem but have only experienced them in festival format. Finally I get to see them do their own thing, and guess what, this is their last tour.
The show was kick ass, they played all their hits, and there was a lot of shit talking going on. Their on stage presence was real strong, playing on [...]

The first show of 2010 and its Asobi Seksu, a band that I have always wanted to see live, but every time they play I am flying somewhere or getting a tooth pulled. The same goes for Mastodon. Needless to say I was PUMPED when I arrived at Soho, a night club in Santa Barbara, last night where Asobi Seksu took the stage. When I got there it was [...]

Sonic Youth is one of those bands that have been around for decades and are still pumping out albums that are always different from the last yet have their signature sound. Sonic Youths real draw is their live show, and a Sonic Youth show in NYC is always a treat.
Before we get to the main course there were some serious appetizers. 1st up was Cold Cave who was playing yet I had [...]

Down south twangness just got amped up for this new band that has a major kick ass show. Cage the Elephant took the stage at the El Rey and with a little help from their guitar tech, Jordan “themotherfuckinman” Powell, got yours truly a ticket to the show for some beers and some rock.
So how were they? Super kick ass sweet thats how. If you heard any of [...]

That’s right, review #2 of their live show only this time it was at the Velvet Jones, a place with a real stage, a real bar, and real speakers. AWESOME.
Nico Vega killed it as usual. The crowd was pretty thin for a Thursday night but that did not hinder Dan, Rich and Aja melting peoples faces with their take on good ol’fashion American Rock. I have already reviewed a Nico Vega live [...]
