Tonight on the corridor
Four years in, New Mexico Goth Fest has established itself as the one night Launchpad fully commits to the dark side, running past 2 a.m. with bands cycling through both the main room and the bar area. The crowd skews serious about the music rather than the costume, which makes for a better show and...
The second night of New Mexico Goth Fest loads eight acts into Insideout starting at midnight, running Church Fire, Academy Order, Funeral Process, The Writhers, Cruel Mourning, Crash Davidian, Leiahdoris, and dot.wall through a long Saturday night into Sunday morning. Insideout is a small room, which means the sound hits hard and the crowd gets...
Reklez Ent is running a hip-hop and perreo dance night at Gaia's Kava Root, the kava bar on Central that doubles as one of the more interesting late-night rooms near...
Reklez Ent takes over Gaias Kava Root for a late-night party that runs from 10 p.m. into the early hours of Sunday morning. Kava bars carry a noticeably mellower baseline...
The Isotopes close out a late-summer homestand against Tacoma, the Mariners' Triple-A affiliate, in what tends to be one of the more competitive matchups on the Pacific Coast League schedule. September games at this park carry a particular feel: the crowds thin a little from midsummer peaks, the evenings cool off faster than you'd expect,...
Felix Y Los Gatos brings their Latin-rooted sound to Sawmill Market's open food hall floor, where the acoustics are livelier than you'd expect from a space built around dining. The market layout means you can grab a drink from any of the vendors and find a comfortable spot without committing to a single seat, which...
This is a tablao-format flamenco show, meaning the performers work close to the audience in an intimate setting rather than across a proscenium stage, and that proximity is the whole point. Hotel Albuquerque's event space has genuine Southwestern character and keeps sightlines decent from most seats, so arriving early to pick your spot pays off....
DJ Hump holds down a full late-night set built around Sade's catalog at Insideout, one of Downtown's more dependable dance rooms when the booking is right. The 2 a.m. start time is not a typo, so plan accordingly if you have anywhere to be Sunday morning. Tickets are through Hold My Ticket, which means will-call...
A full-album spin of Cecil Taylor's 1979 recordings anchors this evening at Outpost, paired with a reception for Greg Tucker's Inpost work as part of the 20th Annual New Mexico Jazz Festival. Outpost is a genuine listening room, which means the crowd tends to actually listen, so if you show up expecting background-music cocktail energy,...
Three bands share the Launchpad stage on a Wednesday night deep into the week, with Night Child headlining above Upon A Fields Whisper and Distances. Launchpad runs a tight ship on multi-band bills, so doors and set times tend to hold, which matters when the show wraps past 11 PM on a school night. Tickets...
