Atari Teenage Riot

Atari Teenage Riot

Event Reviews

Atari Teenage Riot came to Firestone Live to pound out the techno into a modern political landscape where the people rise above totalitarian and authoritarian control. It’s the kind of futuristic idealism that local scribe Eric Donath can’t miss, and to ice that cake is Otto von Schirach, a bass-heavy freak with street-cred like a rap-sheet symphony.

Juliette Lewis

Event Reviews

Joan Jett

Event Reviews

Even this far into her career Joan Jett is all about the music. Why else would she bring two show-stealing bands- Eagles of Death Metal and Riverboat Gamblers - on tour with her? Jen Cray falls into the celebratory atmosphere of one perfect lineup of rock n’ roll.
