Review and picture by thenaturalstoner   Prior to the Sasquatch! Festival I had created a preview for this site, and a couple of days later I am ready to look back and see how I did.

Once again, a great show.    Despite the years that have passed, the band displayed a high level of energy and an intensity on par with the group I saw 20-some years ago (though my recollection of ...

Decimation of the Nation 2 Tour  12/18/09 Nokia Theater - New York, NY Words/Photos by Melorocker First, many thanks and gratitude to Justin and Mr. Robertson for getting me that "precious" photo pass (and may this not be the last time I get it lol).

From stealing the show Friday night at Woodstock ‘94 to playing every club/bar across the world King’s X always brings their A game when they take the stage. That’s ... Read More

Biohazard & Suicidal Tendencies The Palladium - Hollywood, CA 03/28/09 Words/Photos/Videos by Reverend Justito/concertconfessions.c0m Walking into the Hollywood Palladium just past 9pm on Saturday night, my heart was split 50/50. The left side had hope, the right side was full of natural fear. After all, this is LA and Suicidal Tendencies are about to throw down in their home town. I had high hopes for violence, mayhem, disorderly conduct, nudity, a bit more violence, a few beers and of course a few good tunes serving ... Read More
