Unto Others brings their Portland gothic metal to Launchpad, the kind of band that sounds like they wrote the soundtrack to a city you never want to leave. Launchpad runs loud and the room rewards bands with dynamics, which Unto Others have in abundance. Tickets are through Hold My Ticket, so grab them before the...
All Shall Perish are touring the twentieth anniversary of 'The Price of Existence,' the 2006 deathcore record that a significant portion of this genre's current practitioners grew up on, and Carnifex is no afterthought of a support act. Sunshine's floor can get genuinely punishing on a bill like this, so mind your position near the...
The Ganders take the stage at Marble's Downtown taproom, one of the more reliably good-sounding rooms on this stretch of Central. The outdoor patio fills fast on fall Saturday nights, so arriving early gets you the better real estate and skips the bar queue.
Launchpad's annual Halloween cover band run is exactly what it sounds like: a stretch of October nights where different acts take the stage as someone else entirely, costumes and all. The festival pass structure means you're buying into the whole run, which is the right call if you've done this before, because individual nights tend...
Levi Platero, one of the most technically serious blues guitarists working out of New Mexico right now, leads a rotating cast of guests through an SRV birthday tribute at FUSION...
Night two of Launchpad's annual Halloween-season cover band marathon, running late into a Saturday night on Central with multiple acts cycling through the main stage. Launchpad keeps the volume high and the room dark, which suits this kind of night well, though the floor gets tight once the later bands draw a crowd. Tickets are...
El Rey's White Lies Party is a late-night themed event on a Saturday, the kind of night that leans hard into costume, persona, and whatever social fiction you feel like maintaining. The El Rey floor gets warm fast when it's packed, so dress for the vibe but plan for the heat. Tickets are through Hold...
The traffic light format is exactly what it sounds like: wear green if you're available, red if you're not, yellow if you're somewhere in between, and let the color do the talking for the rest of the night. El Rey's layout works well for this kind of social event, with enough room to circulate but...
Jordan Jonas brings whatever he does best to Painted Lady's Brews & Boos series, a fall run of themed nights at one of the more genuinely odd venues on the corridor, a working bed and breakfast with a taproom attached. The room is small and the crowd tends to already know each other, so this...
Exhorder helped invent the sound that made Pantera famous, and they've been making that point live for thirty-plus years. Launchpad's long narrow room compresses a metal crowd in a way that works in the band's favor, so arrive early if you want a position that isn't directly behind a post. Ticket link is live, and...
