The Mars Volta tour will be making a stop in Philly on Tuesday October 27, 2022 and the tickets are selling fast. Fans of the band have been waiting over 10 years for the return of The Mars Volta. The US tour in support of their new, self-titled, album kicks-off later this week. This tour will be awesome. No doubt.

Anyway, tickets for the show at The Met can be purchased HERE. Also be sure to check the Official Mars Volta Website for music, videos, news, and tickets for all upcoming tour dates. I pity the fool that don’t go see The Mars Volta!!!

Modest Mouse played to a sold out crowd at The Met in Philadelphia, PA on 8/5/21. The band are currently on an extensive US summer and fall tour in support of their new album, The Golden Casket. This was my first time at The Met and my first time seeing Modest Mouse live since 1999. It felt amazing being in the photo pit for this show.

Anyway, tickets for upcoming Modest Mouse shows can be purchased at modestmouse.com/#tour. Also be sure to check the Official Modest Mouse Website for music, videos, merch, and all upcoming tour dates. Continue reading below for my full concert review and more photos from the performance.

Much like many of the “jam bands” in the scene, I’ve been photographing and seeing Greensky Bluegrass perform live for a long time. This show was different though. The Met is a special place to see a show and the band knows that. This hometown performance was one to remember for the fans and band alike.
