8:00 pm Tablao Flamenco Albuquerque at Hotel Albuquerque Tickets
Palace, the brooding South London indie outfit, co-headlines this tour stop with Rollo Doherty, whose quietly devastating solo work has been pulling bigger rooms than his name suggests. The Sunshine's mid-size floor is one of the better matches for this kind of music in the city, close enough to feel the room but not so...
Combichrist brings their abrasive industrial-metal live show to Launchpad for the Venom in the Mouth of God Tour, with Ludovico Technique and Dead Animal Assembly Plant opening and DJ K.0ss holding down the floor between sets. Launchpad runs loud and close, which works in this bill's favor. Tickets are through Hold My Ticket, and this...
Four bands deep into the progressive post-hardcore and math-rock end of things, with Hail The Sun and The Fall of Troy sharing a bill that would have broken Myspace in...
A full tablao flamenco production, dancer, singer, and guitarist performing together in the intimate room at Hotel Albuquerque, timed to Balloon Fiesta week when the city is at its most crowded and its most festive. The tablao format seats you close enough that you can hear the footwork land, which changes the experience considerably compared...
Albuquerque gets the first night of a national grindcore run, with California's Trip to the Morgue (Wormholedeath Records, Napalm Death adjacency) headlining over Las Vegas touring partners Skeleton Crew and local openers Egregious 505 on Central Avenue. The Lobo's room rewards this kind of show, big enough to absorb the volume, old enough to have...
Halloween-themed stand-up comedy at one of the quirkier venues on Central, a brewpub that also happens to rent rooms, which means the crowd on any given night is a genuine mix of locals and travelers who wandered downstairs. The Brews & Boos series has been their fall calling card, so expect the room to lean...
Coco Montoya spent years learning from Albert Collins before going out on his own, and that lineage shows in a playing style that treats tone and timing as seriously as any note he picks. FUSION | 708 is a tighter room than most blues acts are used to, which tends to work in the audience's...
El Gozao does something specific: they pull from Cuban son, salsa, and cumbia in a way that actually makes the floor move rather than just nodding along. Marble's Downtown taproom has a concrete-and-brick interior that handles a live Latin band better than you'd expect, with enough open space near the stage to actually dance. The...
The 1922 Nosferatu gets the full treatment here: bingo cards, DJ Fishbowl on the soundtrack, and cold beer in a building that was itself once a little creepy. Painted Lady is a genuinely small room, so the film fills the space in a way a big screen never quite replicates. Tickets are through Hold My...
Tablao Flamenco Albuquerque puts a full live flamenco company on stage inside Hotel Albuquerque, with dancers, a singer, and a guitarist performing together in a purpose-built tablao setting. Balloon Fiesta weekend crowds the city hard, so this show will likely sell through faster than a typical Friday, and the hotel's parking situation reflects that. Specific...
