Four metal acts covering a lot of ground: goblin-themed melodic death from Nekrogoblikon, brutal death metal from Belgium's Aborted, deathcore from Signs of the Swarm, and Party Cannon bringing the absurdist slam. Sunshine Theater's floor holds a crowd well for this kind of show, and the stage sight lines are good even when it fills...
DØMINA takes the decks for the latest installment of Effex's ongoing Techno Affair 360 series, a hard techno and techno night that the club has been running long enough to have built a real following. Effex is a gay bar first, which means the dance floor tends to attract people who actually came to dance,...
Twiztid, the Detroit horrorcore duo with a loyal Juggalo-adjacent fanbase, rolls into El Rey on the Certified Psychos Tour with three local and regional openers padding out a full night. El Rey's standing room floor gets loud and packed for shows like this, so arrive with enough time to actually find your footing before the...
Every NFL game of the day goes up on the screens inside The Lobo Sports Vault, the dedicated sports room carved out of the Historic Lobo Theater on Central, with brunch service running 11 AM to 2 PM. Each game day you attend this season earns you a drawing entry for a Super Bowl LXI...
The Broadway touring production of Beauty and the Beast comes to Popejoy, the biggest and best-equipped room on the Central corridor. Popejoy's sightlines are genuinely good from almost every seat, though the upper balcony can feel remote during quieter scenes, so mid-orchestra or front mezzanine is worth the price difference if you're bringing kids who...
Freudian Slips performs a clown-themed burlesque show at the Painted Lady, running two hours on a Sunday evening as part of the venue's Brews & Boos fall series. Painted Lady is a small, quirky space on Central, so expect the performers working close to the crowd and the room filling up fast. Tickets are through...
Tablao Flamenco Albuquerque puts traditional Spanish flamenco in a proper tablao format, meaning the dancers, singer, and guitarist are close enough that you feel the footwork in your chest. Hotel Albuquerque's intimate room on Old Town's edge has genuine flamenco history here in Albuquerque, and this matinee slot makes it accessible without a late night....
New York duo Elasea Douglas and Sadiki Pierre perform their Love & Laughs show here: one voice, one upright bass, no backing band, no place to hide. That stripped arrangement is exactly what built their following, and the Lobo's intimacy is going to make it hit differently than a standard concert room. Seats are reserved...
A full Broadway touring production of Beauty and the Beast lands at Popejoy, which remains one of the better mid-sized theatrical rooms in the Southwest for exactly this kind of show. Popejoy's sightlines are genuinely good from most of the house, though the upper balcony can feel remote for a production that leans on facial...
Three Bad Jacks bring their brand of outlaw-leaning rock to Launchpad, one of the corridor's most reliable small stages for loud guitar music. The show starts at 9 p.m. local time on a Sunday night, so plan accordingly if Monday morning has opinions about your weekend. Launchpad's room is narrow and the sound bounces hard...
