Just when you thought it was kinda crazy (and weird) that Weezer decided to cover Toto's Africa after Twitter shamed them into it and perhaps weirder still that it has become Weezer's biggest and most popular song to date...things get even weirder... At the Forum in Los Angeles Wednesday, Weezer wrapped up their regular set…
Hard to believe after talking about these summer shows for months they are actually here! I know I know I must say "hard to believe" often but it's freakin' true. When I do these concert run downs with a projection of who's in town in the near future...all of a sudden *poof* the date comes…
It was one of the only sold out shows at the Xfinity Center in Mansfield, MA this summer, and it's clear why... not only because there was so much music from soo many bands (per usual) but because this was the Van's Warped Tour's final trip around the globe after a pretty incredible 24 year…
A friend reminded me of this awesome Funny Or Die video starring Tom Brady as himself visiting a California sporting goods store who meets a clerk who accuses him of having a wicked Boston accent. I can't think of a better time to watch it again than on his 41st birthday. The highlight of course…
Following Dave Grohl's incredible success with Sound City and Sonic Highways, the Foo Fighters front-man is now releasing a new documentary, called Play which will also debut a new song played entirely by him!

I was really looking forward to seeing the Smashing Pumpkins after they announced they were reuniting (minus D'Arcy), thinking, oh this is gonna be something special. Then a few days before the show I thought perhaps I had set myself up for disappointment, setting the bar too high. But 2 notes in, I realized there…
Well it was a rumor and now it's confirmed. Toto is returning the favor by covering Weezer! Two months after Weezer entered the charts with their cover of the Toto classic "Africa," (and their biggest most popular song to date, Toto's Steve Porcaro and Steve Lukather have revealed that they are going to record a version of Weezer's "Hash Pipe." OMG…
And the shows keep comin'... Cake, Ben Folds, Lord Huron plus 3 shows back to back to back at Fenway... It's all right here: Thanks for watching- -Amy Brooks Amy's Concert Corner - O.A.R., Def Leppard and more! @amybrooks929 brings you the latest in Boston shows!
I popped my Arctic Monkeys cherry this weekend and it was pretty great I must say. Ok now for some clarity. When I walked into Boston's TD Garden Friday night (July 27th) to see the Sheffield, England band Arctic Monkeys live, I was taken aback by the fact that the arena was filled to capacity. I…
Green Day fans unite! I admit to loving this band and how they have bounced back from every trial and tribulation with new and poignant music followed by sold out live shows. sprinkle in their love and appreciation for their fans and Billie Joe's fearless desire to speak out in this gross political environment. With Dookie turning…
