With it being Jack White week and all, we figured we would share this tasty gem we just discovered on YouTube. For those not living in Los Angeles, VoodooHipster (aka Brian) is one of the kindest most down to earth people you will meet in this city. He just posted the entire White Stripes performance from 09/23/03 at the Greek Theatre here in Los Angeles. You can watch Jack and Meg kick some serious ass in Griffith Park down below.

String Cheese Incident Announce Summer 2012 Tour Dates
The west coast sure is taking a beating this summer from the jam band community. First off, Phish skips us with their summer tour. Then to add insult to injury, String Cheese Incident plan to grace us with their presence out west. But don’t worry, the Colorado band is kind enough to not include service fees with tickets on this round of tour dates. Here is how they explain it:
Greetings from The String Cheese Incident ... Read More

Reverend Justito Presents His Top 5 Concerts of 2010
I have been attending concerts non-stop since 1996. 2010 has been a wonderful year of music. Not that I have the time to keep track of such a statistic, but I do believe that I have seen more shows in 2010 than any other year of my life. It was not easy to narrow down my top five shows from this year, and chances are this list would be different if you asked me ... Read More

Phish 08/07/10
Greek Theatre - Berkeley, CA
Words/Photos/Videos by Reverend Justito/concertconfessions.com
Before we really get going, I need to thank a few people for making this entire weekend possible. I was shut out via mail order and ticketmaster. Chad and Eric came to my rescue with one ticket for each night and I didn’t have to pay a cent for it. You guys are incredible. I would also like to thank James and Kelly for letting me crash for two nights. You guys rule and ... Read More

Phish 08/06/10
Greek Theatre - Berkeley, CA
Words/Photos/Videos by Reverend Justito/concertconfessions.com
Note: This is the second review I wrote while taking BART from Berkeley to the penninsula. I wrote this on my iPod, and as I edit/put this together on Sunday I think it holds up rather well given the condition I was in. Special thanks to Katy Perry for some inspiration on this one.
I tried an experiment tonight. What would happen if I rocked my Lakers/Lizards t-shirt and $4.99 Lakers cap at a Phish ... Read More

Phish 08/05/10
Greek Theatre - Berkeley, CA
Words/Photos/Videos by Reverend Justito/concertconfessions.com
Note: Reason #81 SF is better than LA. I was able to write most of this review on BART on the way home from the show :)
At the very moment the fog rolled across the bay and reached Berkeley, Phish took the stage for the first of three over-sold nights at the Greek Theatre. With grins from ear to ear on everyone inside the historic venue the band kicked off leg two of their ... Read More

Barenaked Ladies (w/ Angel Taylor & Kris Allen) 07/22/10
Greek Theatre - Los Angeles, CA
Words/Photos by Eringoboro
In the summer of 1998, the HORDE festival made a stop at Saratoga Performing Arts Center. Like any other teenager in upstate New York at the time, Blues Traveler was on my top ten list of favorite bands, and I was longing to get tickets, yet I didn't have a chance to go to the SPAC show as I was working at a summer camp. However, a ... Read More

MGMT w/ Helios Creed & Francis and the Lights
07/16/10 Greek Theater - Los Angeles, CA
Words/Photos by Revered Justito
You know a song is rocking when it is stuck in your head after the first listen. That was me a few summer’s back with “Time To Pretend” by MGMT. Walking the halls at work trying not to mention shooting heroin in Paris as I walked past million dollar execs, I just knew there was something about this Brooklyn based duo. I went to Target, ...

My Morning Jacket 09/21/08
Greek Theatre - Los Angeles, CA

Note: This piece made it's original debut on mtvnews.com.
For most of the decade, every jaded junkie brown nosed rock critic scumbag has declared My Morning Jacket saviors of rock and roll. MMJ front man Jim James has been dubbed the second coming of Christ more than Jesus himself at this point. Usually I tend to ignore most of these jaded junkie brown nosed rock critic scumbags, but for whatever reason, I ... Read More

Coheed and Cambria/Heaven and Hell
Greek Theatre: Los Angeles, CA 08/11/09
Words/Photos by Justin
(Note, I got no Coheed photos as I mainly took video during their set. As soon as we have net access in our new home, I will add the videos).
Sometimes, the stars and planets align and things work out, despite the fact you didn’t think it actually would. I was disappointed knowing I would not be able to make it to the beautiful Greek Theatre here in Los Angeles to see ... Read More

As Gov’t Mule played a bluesy two hour set, I watched many physically challenged Dead Heads struggle to get to their seats. As much as it was a struggle for the aging fan base to reach their seats, it was even more of a struggle for me to stay awake. I really do enjoy Gov’t Mule, and it was cool to hear “Lay Your Burden Down” & “Soulshine” again after all these years. For me, with an evening of slow blues based ... Read More
