Gallery – Machine Head at the Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver, BC
On Tuesday night, Machine Head brought their ‘Slaughter the MarTour’ to the Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver.
The evening kicked off with a barrage of intensity from the opening acts Gates To Hell, Orbit Culture, and Fear Factory, setting the stage for an unforgettable night of moshing and heavy metal.
Machine Head, led by the charismatic frontman Robb Flynn, delivered a relentless set that spanned their illustrious career. From the bone-crushing opener “Imperium” to the anthemic closer “Halo,” the band’s energy never wavered. The crowd erupted with each familiar riff and thunderous drumbeat, creating a electrifying atmosphere within the Commodore.
The setlist showcased the band’s versatility, blending classics like “Davidian” and “Ten Ton Hammer” with newer tracks such as “Now We Die” and “NØ GØDS, NØ MASTERS”. The raw power of Flynn’s vocals and the precision of the band members’ instrumentation were on full display, captivating the audience from start to finish.
Machine Head‘s performance at the Commodore Ballroom was a testament to their enduring impact on the heavy metal scene, leaving fans exhilarated and hungry for more. The band is on tour in Canada, the U.S, Australia and Europe until the end of June. Head to their Machine Head’s website for more info.

Goose Brings their ‘Summer Tour’ to the Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver
Goose brought their 2026 Summer Tour to Vancouver on Tuesday night, turning the Commodore Ballroom into a sweaty, late-night dance party that stretched well past 11 p.m.
The Connecticut-based quartet — Rick Mitarotonda, Peter Anspach, Trevor Weekz and drummer Cotter Ellis — has built a reputation for letting songs breathe onstage, and Vancouver got the full treatment. The band played two sets and an encore, giving the crowd plenty of room to settle into the grooves and watch the songs take unexpected turns.
The first set opened with “Yeti” before moving through “All I Need,” “Turbulence & The Night Rays” and “Time to Flee.” “Everything Must Go” kept things moving before “Hungersite” closed the set with one of the night’s bigger stretches of improvisation.
After a break, Goose returned and launched into “Electric Avenue,” a crowd-pleasing choice that had the Commodore singing along.
There was little interest in rushing through the evening. Goose gave each section space, moving from tight grooves to loose instrumental passages without making the show feel like a collection of extended solos.
For a band coming off a European run and heading into some of its biggest U.S. shows, Vancouver felt like another strong stop on the way. The Commodore may be a much smaller room than Madison Square Garden or SPAC, but Goose seemed perfectly happy to stretch out inside it.

Chance The Rapper Brings ‘Coloring Book 10 Year Anniversary Tour’ to Montreal at MTelus
After 10 years since its release, Chance the Rapper is back on tour to celebrate his album Coloring Book! With Montreal being the 4th stop on the tour, many fans packed into Montreal’s MTELUS on August 15th, 2026, with no idea of what to expect.
First, the audience was thrilled by an energetic and upbeat performance by opener La Reezy. His quick lyrics and heavy instrumentals had no trouble in setting the tone for the night, specifically during “Gold Chains,” and with stellar crowd engagement during “We Live.”
Then, Chance the Rapper took the stage! With Coloring Book being such a staple in 2016, especially in the rap community, it is a daunting task to bring that nostalgic energy back on stage. But, with a 24-song setlist, Chance does just that. Unsurprisingly, half the setlist features songs from Coloring Book, with the set opening with “All We Got,” and closing with “Same Drugs,” featuring a confetti-filled performance of “No Problem” in the middle. However, Chance doesn’t shy away from performing a few hits from his other albums as well, such as “Link Me In The Future” from STAR LINE, and some older work in Acid Rap.
Overall, there is something powerful about hearing these songs a decade later. The themes stay the same, yet as both the artist and audience grow, there’s new meanings and emotions to be found in the lyrics. The anniversary show felt like a reunion for those who grew up with Coloring Book, and that’s what ultimately makes this tour a success.
