Icy Road for the fans

Coming back from the McAlluif's show in Racine was a dangerous ride. The snow and ice were accumulating fast. I counted 8 cars in the ditch on the way home from seeing my favorite Milwaukee rock and roll band. Broadzilla, the headliner had cancelled, so it was up to BTFC to get the job done. The club was full, so BTFC did not mind headlining. Hell ride home and I went to bed.
This photo is Harsh Reality. They rock.

Live music in Milwaukee

Where do you go to see the best live music in Milwaukee? I think it's easier to find a great band in Milwaukee and then follow them around. Some Milwaukee venues are not the best for sound, others are better known for solid bartenders, great drinks and such. Consider Myspace, find a band that you like, and then follow them around Wisconsin. I don't agree that the booking agent for a club will bring in the best bands. You follow that route and you end up seeing some really crappy cover bands.

Summerfest Milwaukee

Well ahead of the Summer season, Milwaukee's Summerfest starts annoucing their lineup. This year Rascal Flatts will be at Summerfest. More concert annuncements will be coming for Summerfest 2008. I would love to see Muse at Summerfest. My nephew would love it too. He flies in from Seattle and pretty much goes to Summerfest all ten days. He wouldn't miss it for anything. That's strange to me because Bumbershoot in Seattle has a bigger and better lineup when compared to Summerfest Milwaukee. I don't even think that there are cover bands at Bumbershoot. Summerfest photos abound.
