Gallery – GWAR at the Vogue Theatre in Vancouver, BC

Published

on

On March 20th, heavy metal band GWAR brought their ‘Age of Befuddlement’ tour to the Vogue Theatre in Vancouver, BC.

Here is what GWAR lead singer Blöthar The Berserker had this to say about the impending trek to Canada: “The Invasion of Canada is nigh. We will start our campaign to bring befuddlement to the masses in the cultured and forward thinking American South, and from there, we will launch a coast-to-coast attack on the Great White North, leaving a swath of destruction not seen since the War of 1812. Stopping only to get high in the Pacific Northwest, we will dive directly into the gaping hole of the donut, the American Midwest, before gracing the Dirty South and ending again on the filthy streets of Baltimore! I wonder if we can score crack in the ‘City that Reads.’ Are You Not Befuddled?”

Seeing and photographing has been on my bucket list for a while and I was not disappointed! As expected, it got a bit bloody last night. But before we arrived to this point, American Fuming Mouth and Canadian Cancer Bats opened the night and delivered incredibly high-energy sets that won the crowd over.

Then it was time for “The Blood Of Gods”, Gwar who transformed an ordinary night into a blood-soaked spectacle of metal mayhem. Anticipation crackled through the air, fueled by the promise of gallons of gore and sonic assault.

As the crowd swelled within the packed venue, the ominous strains of Black Sabbath‘s “War Pigs” set the stage for the impending chaos. Then, like a thunderous onslaught, GWAR exploded onto the stage, led by the formidable Blöthar the Berserker, whose commanding presence seized the audience’s attention from the first guttural roar. With relentless energy, GWAR tore through a setlist that was as brutal as it was electrifying, delivering fan favorites like “I’ll Be Your Monster” and “Immortal Corruptor” with ferocious intensity. The stage became a battleground, drenched in blood as the band unleashed their signature torrents upon the ecstatic crowd, leaving no soul untouched by the carnage.

Despite the chaos and carnage, there was an undeniable sense of camaraderie among the fans, united by their shared love of the macabre and the metal. As the night drew to a close, the crowd, including me, spilled out into the streets, drenched in blood yet wearing the satisfied smiles of those who had witnessed something truly glorious.

CalumScott-LosAngeles-2026-6

Calum Scott took the Wiltern stage in Los Angeles on April 3rd, 2026, for his Avenoir Tour.

Calum Scott is a British singer-songwriter who first gained attention on Britain’s Got Talent in 2015, where his emotional cover of “Dancing On My Own” by Robyn became a global hit. Known for his powerful vocals and deeply personal songwriting, Scott blends pop with raw, heartfelt storytelling. His music often explores themes of love, identity, and self-acceptance, earning him a dedicated global fanbase and chart success with songs like “You Are The Reason.”

The theatre filled, and by 9 o’clock everyone was ready to dance, laugh, and cry together. The sense of community was in the air as many of the fans related to the vulnerability in Scott‘s music.

He performed a variety of songs from his discography: some new songs and his hits. My favorite moment was his stripped-back set, when he sang “No Matter What,” a song about him coming to terms with who he was. Tears began to fall throughout the crowd. What a meaningful night for music in Los Angeles.

Syd Taylor at The Belasco in Los Angeles

Published

SydTaylor-LosAngeles-25

On Tuesday, March 31st, The Belasco in Downtown LA was packed with fans from both near and far. Syd Taylor, an indie-rock artist from Michigan, supported Goldie Boutilier on her North American tour, The King of Possibilities. From February 24th to April 4th, Syd opened for Boutilier at sixteen sold-out shows.

As Syd’s bandmates stepped onto the stage, the crowd erupted with cheers and chants of “Syd, Syd, Syd!” Soon after, Syd Taylor confidently walked across the stage in her stylish outfit, smiling brightly. She kicked off her set with songs from her new album, “After the Fact,” starting with “Love of Your Life,” then “Time to Go,” and “Leave Me Out of It.”
After parting ways with Stereo Jane, a band heavily inspired by ’90s rock—formed by Syd and her twin sister Emilia, known as Mia—Syd felt a strong desire to find her own artistic and personal identity.

Inspired by bands like Fleetwood Mac and The Beatles, Syd finally broke free from external expectations—no longer told which genre to pursue, whom to share her demo with, or how to present herself on stage. As her own producer, songwriter, and guitarist, she spent three months drawing inspiration from her Los Angeles apartment and charting her own creative path. This ultimately led to her releasing her debut album “After the Fact.”

Syd once said that, during the process of making this album, she felt this was “the first time that [she had] been able to sit down and create something for [herself].” Syd had previously felt like she was prioritizing others and wanted to get as far away from that mindset as possible.

To create an album as raw and reflective as “After the Fact,” Syd needed to discover her artistic style. This led her to find confidence in this new era of her career.

Head to Syd‘s website for more information on upcoming tour dates.
