The Hardest Part of Letting Go is Knowing When to Walk Away: A Farewell

"... The hardest part of letting go is knowing when to walk away..." That's one of my favorite lines from one of the many amazing songs that Paco Estrada has written, and in this circumstance, taking it out of context, I feel it sums things up quite well for me. It's been a year and nine months since I posted anything of substance (original) on here. Free time is sparse these days, and has been for some time. Hell, I wanted and intended to do reviews of what wound up being the final concerts I went to in the summer of 2019, yet that never even happened. So now comes the difficult part of fully admitting to myself that The Music Enthusiast is done. It has been for a while now, and I hate that, because I dislike it when bands just fizzle out. No proper farewell, nor even a mention of goodbye, they just vanish. It makes me wish I had ended this a few years ago when the blog was in its prime, but alas.

I remember well that seventeen year old kid who had no formal concept of writing and began doing this simply because he wanted to blog, the local concerts he started periodically going to seeming like as good a topic as any. That was on MySpace, and while the core idea of what I wanted to do was there, it took a lot of refinement on my part to get this where it could be considered legitimate. A whole lot. And then a lot more. I shudder at how awful my earliest blog posts were. This was always all about the local music scene in Dallas/Fort Worth, how enamored I was with it, and wanting to share that. My mission then was to try to get people turned on to some great music they may not have known about, and while my goals with TME may have grown loftier over time, that mission was a constant. Hopefully I succeed at that. Even if it was only once with a single individual than it was all worth it. I also recall seventeen year old me pouring over the liner notes of albums, going over the lyrics and reading the sections where bands thanked whoever and thinking, "I want to see my name in that section one day." I've been humbled a few times in that regard by some awesome local acts. I'm immensely grateful to those who felt compelled to even mention me like that, and thanks, you literally made a dream come true. However, more than anything, this was something I loved with a burning passion. To me, writing a review was every bit as exhilarating as attending the concert, which was certainly a euphoric rush in itself. With this thing having lasted thirteen years there are way too many people who helped me along the way to thank by name. But to those who helped expand my horizons from just the local D/FW scene and motivated me to start covering larger events, thank you. To all the bands and musicians who helped foster this little blog and shared my reviews, thank you. To anyone who ever read anything I posted on here, thank you. You all have my eternal and heartfelt gratitude. The Music Enthusiast was never a buzzed about blog, nor even one widely recognized, though I feel that was appropriate, because it's in line with who I am. I do believe, however, that every single thing I wrote on here felt like it came from the heart. That a piece of me was represented in these words, rather than just being some generic comments. Maybe one day I'll resume this. If that's even a possibility it's at least several years away. Or maybe the end slipped by some time ago without even knowing. I don't know... Thanks again to anyone and everyone who ever gave this site a moment of their time. Take care.

Volbeat Announces U.S. Dates of Rewind, Replay, Rebound World Tour for Spring 2020; Coming to The Pavilion at Toyota Music Factory on April 10th

Today, multi-platinum Danish rock band Volbeat confirm 15 U.S. headlining dates on their “Rewind, Replay, Rebound World Tour” this April and May, bringing the tour to cities including Las Vegas, Nashville, Atlanta, Baltimore, and New York City. Special guests Clutch will be direct support on all dates, with the exception of the May 2nd Hershey, PA show which will feature direct support from Gojira. The Picturebooks will open each night on this tour. Ticket pre-sales begin Tuesday, January 14th and general on-sales begin Friday, January 17 at 10am local time here. A limited number of VIP packages will also be available for purchase and include meet & greet and photo opps, exclusive merch items and priority check in with early entry to the show and early access to merch. “We can’t wait to get back to the States and bring a full, headline-length Volbeat show to our U.S. fans,” said the band, “and we’re beyond ecstatic to have our great friends in Clutch and our new friends in The Picturebooks joining us for the ride. We will see you very, very soon!”

Additionally, the band will be headlining 98 KUPD’s UFEST 2020 April 4th at Big Surf in Tempe, AZ and will appear at FM99 WNOR’s Lunatic Luau alongside Disturbed on May 1st at Veterans United Home Loans Amphitheater in Virginia Beach.

For the album, Volbeat— Michael Poulsen (guitars/vocals), Rob Caggiano (guitars), Kaspar Boye Larsen (bass), and Jon Larsen (drums) —build upon the distinct, psychobilly, punk-tinged rock ‘n’ roll sound they are known for, while reaching for new creative summits. “The whole point for us going into the studio, is because you still have something to prove — not just for the fans, but mostly for yourself,” says Poulsen. “We would not be able to do this record if it wasn’t for the work we have done in the past. No matter how old the band gets or how many records we do, there is always going to be that signature sound.” Rewind, Replay, Rebound is available on all formats here, including a 2 CD deluxe edition, a special deluxe edition box set, and transparent and blue colored vinyl, numbered and limited to 1,000 copies each.

2019: A Year in Review - The Top 10′s

I’ve seen a few artists posting year end wrap-ups on social media describing 2019 as an off-year for them. To apply that same term to myself feels like a vast overstatement. This site was largely silent in 2019, with the exception of some press releases here and there and some concert reviews back during the first quarter. On that note, I saw just a little more than a dozen concerts, and didn’t even do reviews of all of them. Hell, I haven’t even written anything in more than half a year at this point, and truth be told, I’m not sure if 2020 will be much different. Time will tell, I suppose. Personally speaking, 2019 was a trying year right from day one. I will say that losing a parent is excruciatingly difficult and such a loss fundamentally changes you, and I’ll leave it at that. Despite the lack of posts I did at least want to continue my annual top ten list, so here’s the ten LP’s and EP’s that I added to my collection over the past year that stood out to me the most, complete with a Spotify playlist of my favorite tracks from them. Check it out if you have some time to spare; and I hope everyone has a wonderful 2020.

1.) Artist: Alter Bridge Album: Walk The Sky (Napalm Records) Must Listen Song: “Godspeed” 2.) Artist: Badflower Album: OK, I'M SICK (Big Machine Records / John Varvatos Records) Must Listen Song: “Ghost” 3.) Artist: Dead Flowers Album: Let's Get Angry!

Silversun Pickups Announce Round of 2020 U.S. Tour Dates; Visiting Dallas’ House of Blues on February 20th

Silversun Pickups confirm a thirty-date tour of the United States, throughout February and March of next year and in support of their latest studio album, Widow’s Weeds. The band will perform in cities including Los Angeles, Austin, Washington D.C., as well as two shows at New York City’s Brooklyn Steel. Eliza & The Delusionals are confirmed as the support act on the February dates of this tour, and the Australian band has been #1 at Sirius Alt Nation with their single “Just Exist” for the last three months, intermittently. Support for the March dates will be confirmed soon. Tickets for these shows will go on sale on Friday, December 13 at 10am local time (with the exception of Washington D.C.’s March 8th show which will go on sale on Thursday, December 12th at 10am local). The band today also shares their Alan Del Rio Ortiz directed music video for "Don't Know Yet" via Billboard, along with an interview. Brian Aubert of the band reveals: “We thought that his [Ortiz] idea seems to feel really right with the song. We couldn't figure out how the song necessarily worked in some more clever, narrative thing. We just realized, I think, it's time we have something very, very fundamental, like a really well-shot performance video. We felt like maybe people want to see us in this one.”

Silversun Pickups’ 5th studio album, Widow’s Weeds, is out now via their own New Machine Recordings label. The band enlisted Butch Vig (Nirvana, Smashing Pumpkins, Sonic Youth) to produce their latest, an extroverted and open album about rebirth and renewal. Said lead singer Brian Aubert about Widow’s Weeds: “This was the first album where we were open. We were exposed. I see how that can be scary to people, but for us we really thrived on that.” Widow’s Weeds is available for purchase on all formats here. Current Tour Dates: 2019 December 13--Eugene, OR--McDonald Theatre + 14--Crystal Ballroom--Portland, OR SOLD OUT 16--Sacramento, CA--Ace of Spades SOLD OUT 17--San Diego, CA--Observatory SOLD OUT 18--Phoenix, AZ--The Marquee + 2020 February 4--Ventura, CA--Ventura Theatre* 5--Santa Ana, CA--The Observatory* 7--Los Angeles, CA--The Wiltern* 8--Oakland, CA--Fox Theatre* 10--Las Vegas, NV--House of Blues* 12--Salt Lake City, UT--The Union Event Center* 13--Aspen, CO--Belly Up* 14--Denver, CO--Ogden Theatre* 16--Tulsa, OK--Cain’s Ballroom* 18--Houston, TX--House of Blues* 19--Austin, TX--Stubb’s BBQ* 20--Dallas, TX--House of Blues* 22--New Orleans, LA--The Fillmore* March 1--Philadelphia, PA--The Fillmore 2--Boston, MA--House of Blues 3--New Haven, CT--College Street Music Hal 5--Brooklyn, NY--Brooklyn Steel 6--Brooklyn, NY--Brooklyn Steel 8--Washington D.C.--9:30 Club 9--Charlotte, NC--The Fillmore 11--Asheville, NC--The Orange Peel 12--Atlanta, GA--Buckhead Theatre 13--Knoxville, TN--The Mill & Mine 15--Nashville, TN--Marathon Music Works 17--Detroit, MI--The Fillmore 18--Cleveland, OH--Agora Theatre 19--Chicago, IL--Vic Theatre 21--Milwaukee, WI--The Rave 22--Madison, WI--The Sylvee 23--Minneapolis, MN--First Avenue +Holiday Radio Show *Support – Eliza & The Delusionals

The band is ready to deliver an over the top stage show packed full of hit songs. 2019 ROCK & ROLL HALL OF FAME INDUCTEES Def Leppard are one of the most important forces in rock music.

POISON will be bringing a rocking real and relevant no holds barred thunderous live show to the Stadium tour this summer with the all original lineup of Bret Michaels,C.C. DeVille, Bobby Dall and Rikki Rockett. POISON will be unleashing an onslaught of hit after hit songs in its set. Friday the 13Th will be an historic date for two reasons, stadium tour tickets will go on sale as well as POISON front man, Bret Michaels will receive the Humanitarian of the Year award to air on the CW network the same night.

Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee Joan Jett & The Blackhearts are no strangers to stadium sized shows having toured with The Who, Green Day and the Foo Fighters in recent years on their stadium tours. Jett celebrated the story of her life in a critically acclaimed 2018 documentary Bad Reputation which showcased all the female firepower of her life and musical career.

The band’s multi-country tour will kick off on May 30that North Island Credit Union Amphitheatre in Chula Vista, CA. Meghan Trainor will appear on all show dates. Trainor will release her anticipated third studio album entitled Treat Myself, coming January 31st on Epic Records. Tickets for the tour are set to go on sale starting on Monday, December 9thand will be available to the public on Friday, December 13th.

Citi cardmembers will have access to purchase U.S. pre-sale tickets in select markets beginning Monday, December 9th at 12pm local time until Thursday, December 12th at 10pm local time through Citi EntertainmentSM. The band’s tour announcement follows the debut of their most recent single, “Memories” (222 Records/ Interscope Records). The release of “Memories” marks the first new music from the Los Angeles band since the release of their global anthem “Girls Like You.” Produced by Adam Levine and The Monsters & Strangerz and Executive Produced by Jacob "J Kash" Hindlin, “Memories” marks a moment of creative and personal progression for the musicians. The minimalist ballad starkly pairs a lilting clean guitar with chantable and evocative lyrics from Levine.

The Glorious Sons Announce Massive 2020 North American Tour in Support of New Album, 'A War On Everything'; Rocking Dallas on February 6th at Canton Hall

Just two days after their massive sold-out hometown stadium show at Kingston’s Richardson Memorial Stadium, JUNO Award winning rockers The Glorious Sons have announced their 2020 “A War On Everything” North American headlining tour produced by Concerts West/AEG Presents. Kicking off in Pennsylvania on January 16, the sweeping 40+ date tour will hit iconic venues across major cities throughout the U.S. and Canada including stops in New York, Los Angeles, Toronto and Vancouver before wrapping in Montreal on April 11. Joining the tour as special guests are Des Rocs (U.S. dates) and Black Pistol Fire (Canadian dates). The tour announcement follows the celebrated release of the band’s brazen and brutally honest new album A War On Everything (9/13 via Black Box/BMG), and marks the group’s highly-anticipated return to Scotiabank Arena in Toronto, where they wrapped the critically acclaimed larger than life “S.O.S.” tour last November. Ticket pre-sales for the 2020 “A War On Everything” tour begin today at 1:00 p.m. local time. Tickets go on sale to the public beginning September 27 at 10:00 a.m. local time.

A daring 14-track collection of stadium-ready, “dirty, sweaty rock” (Alternative Press), rife with devastating moments of vulnerability and searing insight into universal truths about anxiety, sadness and isolation in the 21st century, A War On Everything was produced by Frederik Thaae (Kate Nash, Atlas Genius), and recorded at North of Princess studios in the group’s hometown of Kingston, ON. Billboard hailed the record’s “turbulent guitar licks,” saying, “maybe the self-aware band thinks [rock] is dying, but they might just be resurrecting it.” Stuart Berman for Apple Music said, “‘A War on Everything’ heightens the tension between entertainment and inner torment at the heart of The Glorious Sons' sound.” The record marks the start of a new chapter for a band who earlier this year landed their first Billboard #1 with "S.O.S. (Sawed Off Shotgun)", which held the #1 spot at Active Rock in Canada for 10 consecutive weeks (4 at US Active Rock), spent a record setting 64 weeks on the Canadian Rock Radio Charts while earning CRIA GOLD certification, and is still one of the most spun tracks of 2019 at Rock Radio in North America, firmly planting The Glorious Sons in uncharted territory. On September 21, The Glorious Sons played to a raucous hometown crowd to commemorate the release of A War On Everything, taking over Kingston’s Richardson Memorial Stadium for a 2.5 hour headline set for the over 14,000 fans in attendance. From headlining clubs to arenas and festival dates, 2019 saw the award-winning band play massive shows with The Rolling Stones and Twenty-One Pilots and tour across the U.S. with The Struts.

Vogue proclaimed Kacey’s “mesmerizing blend of emotional directness and swirling pop melodies, old-school musicianship and new-school production, is a cross-genre triumph that feels so right for now,” and V pronounced, “a masterpiece of crossover country, the record showcased a heartfelt and accessible style, place her both in the glittering center of pop culture and the ears of listeners of every stripe.” Golden Hour has taken Kacey around the globe; in addition to headlining shows in North America, the U.K., Europe, Japan, China, New Zealand, and Australia, Kacey performed at Global Citizen Festival: Mandela 100 in South Africa. This year, she performed at festivals from Bonnaroo to Governors Ball, and became the first-ever female country artist to play Coachella. She continues to hit the festival circuit with upcoming performances at the Newport Folk Festival, FloydFest, Hinterland Music Festival, Lollapalooza, and Outside Lands.

Twenty Øne Piløts Pløt Fall 2019 Dates of “Banditø Tour”; Cøming to Dickies Arena in Ført Wørth on Nøvember 8th

Twenty One Pilots have announced a new U.S. leg of their global headline “Banditø Tour” due to overwhelming demand. The new Live Nation-produced tour dates, which follow this summer’s sold-out arena run, are set to kickoff October 9th at Tampa, FL’s Amalie Arena and will continue through a performance at Tulsa, OK’s BOK Center on November 9th. To ensure tickets get in to the hands of fans and not scalpers or bots, the tour has partnered with Ticketmaster’s Verified Fan platform. Fans can register now through July 14th at 10:00PM PT. Registered fans who receive a code will have access to purchase tickets before the general public starting on July 16th at 10:00AM local time through July 18th at 10:00PM local time. All remaining tickets for the new U.S. dates will be released to the public at 10:00AM local time on Friday, July 19th. Furthermore, Twenty One Pilots have shared “Cut My Lip (40.6782°N, 73.9442° W),” the second stripped back performance from the band’s new “Løcatiøn Sessiøns.” Recorded by Tyler Joseph, “Cut My Lip (40.6782°N, 73.9442° W)” follows the series’ debut session “Chlorine (19.4326° N, 99.1332° W),” and is accompanied by an official visualizer streaming now on the band’s official YouTube channel.

“Chlorine” is featured on Twenty One Pilots’ acclaimed LP TRENCH, which made a stunning global impact upon release this past October. The RIAA gold certified collection earned the GRAMMY® Award winning duo of Tyler Joseph and Josh Dun their biggest sales week ever in the U.S., with 175,000 units sold in its first week. An extraordinary achievement for the Columbus, OH band who moved 135,000 copies of TRENCH in pure album sales without the aid of a ticket / album bundle for their worldwide headline “Banditø Tour.” TRENCH — with over 52 Million on-demand audio streams its first week — also marked the largest streaming week (debut or otherwise) in the U.S. for a rock album. A true global phenomenon amassing 110 Million streams worldwide in its first week, TRENCH earned Twenty One Pilots Top 5 chart debuts around the globe including the U.S., U.K., Belgium, Canada, Finland, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Norway, Scotland, and Sweden, with #1 debuts in Australia, New Zealand, and The Netherlands. Twenty One Pilots’ TRENCH follows the Twenty One Pilots’ global breakout BLURRYFACE, which made a stunning chart debut upon its initial release, entering the SoundScan/Billboard 200 at #1. The album also achieved a milestone unrivaled in the digital era, becoming the first album in which every individual song on the album certified Gold, Platinum or multi-Platinum by the RIAA.

Bear Hands to Support X Ambassadors on 31-Date Fall US Tour; Includes Stop at House of Blues in Dallas on October 15th

youtube

On the heels of their extensive tour with twenty one pilots, today Bear Hands confirm a 31-city tour supporting X Ambassadors. The tour will kick off on October 8 in Tucson, AZ, with shows in cities including Atlanta, Richmond, New York City, Seattle, and Los Angeles. Tickets for all dates are on sale NOW. Bear Hands, comprised of vocalist Dylan Rau, bassist Val Loper, and drummer TJ Orscher, recently released their fourth studio album Fake Tunes, a deep dive into a twisted modern era, paranoid yet hopeful, celebrity obsessed and introspective, and an unmistakable sign of troubled times. Written and recorded in the plastic warmth of Los Angeles, Fake Tunes marks an evolution for the band, whilst drawing upon newly formed collaborative relationships with producer Christopher Chu of POP ETC and outsider artist Ursula Rose. Fake Tunes finds Bear Hands exploring new sounds and new themes with fresh wit and vulnerability, and is anchored by Rau’s sharp, incisive songwriting, tackling the challenges of relationships, dependence, acceptance, and uncertainty.

From the “metronomic electro-pop” (New York Times) of album opener "Blue Lips (feat. Ursula Rose)," a song about listening to someone's problems over and over until it drains you completely, to the dreamy lilt of "Clean Up California," a song about finding salvation (or not) across state lines, Fake Tunes traces the anxiety of life and love in America today. The album’s 11 tracks veer from the meaty, rhythmic indie anthems the band cut its teeth on to digitally-infused numbers that swerve across stylistic lanes. The result is a fitting statement of what a band can be—and the expectations it can defy. “It feels like this record is grateful,” Loper says. “We feel lucky to be here, to have the chance to keep making music together. It feels lighter. The songs are shorter, they’re pretty poppy, and they’re to the point. And that’s where our music is most impactful.” Tour Dates Supporting X Ambassadors 2019 October 8--Tucson, AZ--Rialto Theatre 9--Albuquerque, NM--Historic El Rey Theater 11--Denver, CO--Mission Ballroom 12--Kansas City, MO--Arvest Bank Theater at the Midland 13--Oklahoma City, OK--The Jones Assembly 15--Dallas, TX--House of Blues 16--Houston, TX--House of Blues 18--Atlanta, GA--Tabernacle 19--New Orleans, LA--The Fillmore 20--Birmingham, AL--Iron City 22--Lake Buena Vista, FL--House Of Blues 23--Fort Lauderdale, FL--Revolution 25--Charlotte, NC--The Fillmore 26--Richmond, VA--The National 27--Norfolk, VA--The Norva 29--Washington D.C.--Lincoln Theatre 30--New York, NY--Terminal 5 November 1--Portland, ME--State Theatre 2--Philadelphia, PA--Franklin Music Hall 5--Cleveland, OH--House of Blues 6--Detroit, MI--The Fillmore Detroit 8--Grand Rapids, MI--20 Monroe Live 9--Indianapolis, IN--Egyptian Room at Old National Centre 10--Nashville, TN--Marathon Music Works 12--Omaha, NE--Sokol Auditorium 15--Portland, OR--Crystal Ballroom 16--Boise, ID--Knitting Factory Boise 17--Seattle, WA--Showbox SoDo 19--San Francisco, CA--Warfield Theater 20--Los Angeles, CA--Palladium

Mumford & Sons will continue their worldwide Delta Tour 2019 this fall with newly confirmed stops at Phoenix’s Talking Stick Resort Arena, San Francisco’s Chase Center, Mexico City’s Pepsi Center WTC, Houston’s Toyota Center and Dallas’ American Airlines Center among others.

Tickets for the Mexico City, Guadalajara and Monterrey dates go on-sale Monday, July 1 and Wednesday, July 3 at 11:00AM CST. The band continues to receive widespread praise for their sold-out live performances; the Albany Times Union declares, “Mumford & Sons has developed into an arena-rock juggernaut,” while The Washington Post proclaims, “The U.K. quartet thrilled a packed Capital One Arena crowd…undeniably wondrous arena rock anthems” and Billboard asserts, “It’s exactly the kind of tour that will solidify their spot in the pantheon of arena-friendly bands.”

Additionally, the acclaimed band performed “Slip Away” last week on “The Late Late Show with James Corden.” Watch/share HERE. The performance was filmed at Central Hall Westminster as part of the show’s 4-episode special broadcasting from London.
