Do These Bands Fux Live?

Colleen Green
Ridgewood
June 28th, 2025
Heading back to TV Eye for the first great show of the summer. Colleen killed us with her 2015 album, and Rozwell Kid stunned us with their repertoire. Even Jeff the Brotherhood showed up for good measure. Lots of good convo in between sets about 90s metal though have to ding em for not having ranch. 4.75/5.

Ya, totally forgot buying the ticket to this one a few days prior in a stupor. Well had to go, though was feeling a little low energy. The opener (not featured) packed a wallop, but by the time ABS came on, I was like meh. 2.5/3. I tried to break into Elsewhere after, but alas.
The Sultan Room
Opener

Charles Mingus
West Village
June 20th, 2025
No Charles Mingus has not returned from the great jazz trio in the sky, but there are some fine folks playing what he has left us. 3.75/4
Zinc
Trio

Foxes in Fiction
Alphabet City
June 14th, 2025
While I was secretly hoping that Andy Shauf was gonna make an appearance it turns out that makes no sense cause this was Foxes in Fiction. Lowkey. Laid Back. Anxious as hell it would be sold out and I wanted to buy my ticket at the door. Ducked out before the "headliner" reared their headlinen. 2.75/3

Gen X turnt out causing a fairly uncomfortable experience. Still a few young fans had been led astray for what really was a 4/5 overall experience.

Kimbra

June 7th, 2025
So this isnt actually Kimbra's band (though you wouldn't know it from watching them play), but I guess trying to have a repeat of an experience (I previously saw her play with a similar group at this venue in 2023) is bound to end in some disappointment. It had its moments, but not enough to keep the energy going for the almost 2 hrs I staid. 3.5/5

I guess millennial are saying no to moshing. Well if someone wants to prevent me from going to the front they can fight me for it. Pallbearers showed they had more than just Sorrow & Extinction, though their full play through of The Legend may have been the highlight. 4.25/5

Palehound
Williamsburg
May 27th, 2025
A chance to see Palehound, and oh almost didnt see you there, the Ophelia(s). The best part? It was all for the children, and not at all for Thurston Moore. 4.25/5

This was more of a bucket list item for me, but I couldn't pass up the chance to see this wondrous post-tronic vixen. Space was a little cramped, and the drink situation completely f**ked, but we can say 4/5.

Who knew arriving at Nublu @ 9:10 on a Friday night would make you almost en retard? Still for those 50 minutes we were forced to dance, bare our teeth and enjoy some succulent new world jazz, with a reefer break. 4/5
Nublu
