The Vaccines at The Belasco in Los Angeles

Published

on

On February 6th, West London natives The Vaccines closed out the North American leg of their 2025 tour. After a last-minute venue change, the band rocked the house at a sold-out show at The Belasco in Los Angeles. 

Thus Love, an American group from Brattleboro, Vermont, helped The Vaccines kick off the night with songs from their new album All Pleasure.

Although The Belasco is an indoor venue, the LA rainstorm still impacted the evening. Thus Love was performing their set when the power failed, causing the sound crew and band to scramble and try to address the problem hurriedly. Bassist Ally Juleen spoke into her microphone, stating, “We can’t hear ourselves, BUT the show must go on.” The band picked up right where they left off without skipping a beat and finished their set strongly.

After fourteen spectacular shows across the country, The Vaccines didn’t want the night to end before making sure that Los Angeles knew just how special it was to the band. After playing All White, a song from their 2011 album What Did You Expect from The Vaccines, the band slipped away to their dressing rooms. Not being content with this as the night’s ending, the crowd began to roar, chanting as loud as they could, “encore, encore” repeatedly. Finally, The Vaccines reemerged, giving the crowd what they wanted. The night ended with four more songs, rounding their set list to twenty-one. 

The atmosphere was indescribable—it was like no other. The crowd arrived hungry and left feeling fulfilled and satisfied. Thus Love and The Vaccines brought infectious music and delivered on their promises that it would be an incredible night.

Goose Brings their ‘Summer Tour’ to the Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver

Goose

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

Chance The Rapper-Montreal-6

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.
