10 years ago, I was sitting in my seat at the Hollywood Bowl, along with my friends Chris, Colleen and Chad. I was The Who Hollywood Bowlbeyond excited to FINALLY see and hear (and feel) my all-time favorite band perform live. I’d missed an opportunity to see them a few years prior, so I was bound and determined to be there this time.
by John Santos Swimming pools, movies stars. That’s what most of the country thinks when they hear about Los Angeles. Monster Trucks for some reason never seem to make the list. But what many don’t know is the Los Angeles, and Southern California in general is quite the hotspot for Monster Trucks, off road racing, [...]
by John Santos To say it had been some time since the Goats last tasted victory against their neighbors from down the hall, would be an understatement. And while I was trying to be as hopeful as can be, history certainly wasn’t helping. Despite it all, the supporters were in good spirits. Even the ones [...]
by Sean W. What a weekend! I am a huge Odin fan. I love their debut Don’t Take No For An Answer and the subsequent albums all had some killer tunes on them. When I found out in the Spring that Odin was doing a show, I had to go. I’ve wanted to see them [...]
by Jean Brugger I have worked way, way, way behind the scenes for Universal Pictures since 1987 – at their advertising agency – distributing and scheduling their television and radio commercials.

Steve Jones was hosting “Jonesy’s Jukebox” on Indie 103.1 and I was/am a rabid Jonesy fan. Paul Cook guested on Steve’s show and their banter about their Sex Pistols days were side splitting hilarious. Word [...]
by Alba M. The good surprise in LA – Visiting The Grammy Museum at L.A. Live My last day in the amazing city of Los Angeles. Would be flying back home early on Sunday. After a long day of walking decided to explore a little more of downtown LA. For my surprise and totally by [...]
by Karen Kritzer The Clash. $5.00 bucks to see the Clash. $5.00 bucks to be a part of history. There is no price you can put on this show. You simply had to be here. Imagine this: There was an early 6:00 pm show of an Israeli folk singer that night. No one remembers that, [...]
by Lois Pennell This was my first time seeing Parachute. I had listened to them a while prior to the show and had always wanted to see them live. They were on last, so I got to The Roxy early to get front row! I met a friend there that night and we waited a [...]
by Omar Arteaga I went to a show at The Roxy on Feb. 6 2011. It was put on by H20 to benefit “one life one chance”. I had never heard of H20 but I went because Travis Barker was going to be the guest drummer. By the end of the night I was an [...]
