Apocalyptica at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre in Vancouver
On February 24, Finnish metla band Apocalyptica brought their Apocalyptica Plays Metallica Vol. 2 Tour to the Queen Elizabeth Theatre in Vancouver, and it was an unforgettable night of symphonic metal mastery.
Kicking things off was the insanely talented Nita Strauss, who wasted no time getting the crowd pumped. She was introduced by her good friend, American wrestler Mick Foley. Best known for her work with Alice Cooper, Nita’s solo set was a masterclass in shredding. It’s always a treat to see her in her element, and she absolutely owned the stage with her high-energy performance and effortless guitar wizardry.
Then came the main event—Apocalyptica. From the moment the first notes of “Ride the Lightning” rang out, the energy in the theatre was electric. It’s incredible how they manage to bring Metallica’s raw power to life using just cellos and drums. Eicca Toppinen, Paavo Lötjönen, and Perttu Kivilaakso played with unmatched intensity, headbanging and moving across the stage like true rockstars, while drummer Mikko Kaakkuriniemi kept the pulse pounding.
The setlist was a dream for Metallica fans, featuring classics like “Creeping Death,” “Master of Puppets,” and a hauntingly beautiful rendition of “Nothing Else Matters.” The night ended with “Seek & Destroy” and an encore of “One.”
Apocalyptica will be on tour in North America until March 8 in Houston, TX. More info on tickets and tour dates here.

Dax Brings ‘The Anger Management Tour’ to the Vogue Theatre in Vancouver
Dax brought The Anger Management Tour to Vancouver’s Vogue Theatre on November 10, delivering an evening of personal storytelling, emotional rap and music built around the struggles that have shaped his career. Opening the night was Knox Hill, who warmed up the crowd ahead of the Canadian rapper’s headline performance.
Born Daniel Nwosu Jr., Dax has built a sizeable following through social media and a catalogue that blends hip-hop with country influences and deeply personal subject matter. His breakout hit “Dear Alcohol” has amassed hundreds of millions of streams, helping introduce his music to audiences beyond traditional rap circles. Tracks like “To Be A Man” and “Lonely Dirt Road” have further established his reputation for tackling difficult subjects through direct, autobiographical lyrics.
That emotional honesty sits at the centre of The Anger Management Tour. Dax has continued releasing new material in 2026, including “Temptation” and “God, Can You Hear Me?,” keeping his focus on faith, relationships, frustration and personal growth.
The Vancouver show gave fans a chance to connect with an artist whose music often feels more like a conversation than a traditional rap performance. From reflective moments to more intense material, Dax‘s approach puts the lyrics front and centre.

The Dreggs close off “Heading Home Tour” in Perth!
Australian duo – The Dreggs – brought their Heading Home Tour to a close with a sold-out show at Metropolis Fremantle in Perth. It was a night full of good vibes, big smiles and plenty of energy, with the crowd giving the band a warm welcome from the very beginning.
The evening kicked off with two support acts, Ella Jones and Betty Taylor Band. Both delivered great sets, bringing plenty of energy to the room and getting the crowd ready for the main event.
When The Dreggs finally took the stage, the atmosphere only got better. The duo moved effortlessly between upbeat tracks like “Stay the Night” and “We Don’t Talk,” and more melancholic moments that gave the show a different, more intimate feel.
There was something special about the whole night. From the first songs to the final moments, the smiles on stage seemed to match those in the crowd. A sold-out venue, great support acts and a band clearly enjoying every second of it – a pretty perfect way for The Dreggs to wrap up their Heading Home Tour!
