LOCAL CONCERT ALERTS (Soundcheck) & More Weekend Concert Previews!!
Our busy end-of-year post streak continues with non-LopLops weekend concert previews, all involving a band playing tomorrow in some form or fashion. As an update on our concert preview schedule, we'll look at Bone Yard's acoustic gig on Saturday and New Year's Eve hard rock concerts (Soundcheck aside, check below) to wrap up this weekend's previews, extra late notice gigs aside. Now, let's resume our concert previews with some SHORT NOTICE LOCAL CONCERT ALERTS!
Joining their already announced New Year's Eve concert at Reggie's Place on SUNDAY NIGHT and their usual jam night hosting duties at Jay's Piston Broke Pub tonight, local classic/hard rock cover quartet Soundcheck will also be playing traditional concerts at Jay's TOMORROW & SATURDAY NIGHT as well! Apologies for the short notice, the band only announced these two dates on their Facebook page on Tuesday. Counting their Cameron-less jam night as a "concert", Soundcheck will end 2023 with live performances across four consecutive nights, so if you're a fan of theirs, you have plenty of options to enjoy their classic and hard rock cover selection this weekend! TOMORROW & SATURDAY's shows will be Soundcheck's first traditional gigs at Jay's in a little over a month, while Sunday's previously announced New Year's party at Reggie's will be their third show there in the span of ten days.
Booked after they dropped out of the Delta Waterfront Hotel's New Year's party, expect some level of New Year's frills on Sunday night, if at a much lower price point, given that the Delta's event costs $100! TOMORROW & SATURDAY'S Jay's concerts and New Year's at Reggie's all start at 9:30 PM with 19+ age limits and no announced cover charges. Visit the above links for more details on Soundcheck's busy end of 2023, and here they are live!
Next up, local classic/hard rock cover band Generations will return to the stage with a one-nighter at Shooters Downstairs Lounge TOMORROW NIGHT! This concert will end a nearly 2 months-long break for the Jus' Chillin successors, who were last seen together at Jay's in early November and at Shooters in mid-October, though fans may have seen members since filling in with Tex Riviera & The Ride and at the Blues For Food concert. I'm not sure why Generations haven't been playing live lately, but hopefully their classic and hard rock covers find another receptive audience to end 2023 with tomorrow! A one-night-only event due to Shooters' hosting another DJ night on Saturday instead, tomorrow's 19+ festivities have no cover charge, and will have an earlier start time of 8:00 PM for unexplained reasons. Visit the above links for more details, and here's Generations live!
Also this weekend, fellow local classic/hard rock cover quartet Double Down will rock The Esquire Club for concerts TOMORROW & SATURDAY NIGHT! Confirmed on the venue's Facebook page with band members backing that up on personal accounts, these shows are on despite Double Down announcing that their November 24th-25th shows at Reggie's would be their "last gig(s) of 2023". Clearly, things have since changed, so fans will get to see this talented foursome back in the west end tomorrow & Saturday! Notably, these will be Double Down's first ever shows at The Esquire Club, after dropping out of planned dates there in mid-September, while this will presumably feature their full lineup, after bassist Brad Stephen had to miss their Reggie's gigs last month. You can take in Double Down's Cancon-heavy slate of rock covers both nights at 9:30 PM with 19+ age limits and no cover charges. See above for more details, and here's Double Down live!
Finally for this preview post, rising young local hard rock quintet HeadFirst will end their 2023 by returning to the aforementioned Reggie's Place for concerts TOMORROW & SATURDAY NIGHT! Their fifth and sixth concerts at the Queen Street East staple, these come just two weeks after Red, Raine, Liam, Claire, and Anthony last played at Reggie's. Oddly, HeadFirst have not posted on their Facebook page whatsoever since December 4th, but these shows are on, so if you're up for their classic rock-inspired slate of hard hitting covers, this talented group should deliver the goods once again! Official band merchandise will also be available tomorrow and Saturday night, shows that have 9:00 PM start times, no cover charges, and 19+ age limits. If you want to see some newer faces with your hard rock this weekend, be at Reggie's tomorrow and/or Saturday, so see above for more details, and here's HeadFirst live at Reggie's in the fall!
That's all for now, but stay tuned for more weekend concert previews or this month's YouTube Channel Profile next! Thanks everyone!
