It couldn’t have been a more beautiful day on Manhattan. The sites of the holiday, the bustle of the shoppers, the smell of the Halal Food trucks on every corner and The Holiday Shops at Bryant Park all while wearing short sleeves–”forget about it!” Temperature had to be somewhere between 60 and 70 degrees and the sun was out at the end of “Movember“, aka November or for me–aka “moe.vember”.

Our friend Nick Irving went to the Lotus show on Saturday night at Terminal 5 and shot the hell out of it. The band returns to the road on Oct. 20th in New Haven, CT and play a month worth of shows across the country as deep fall and winter start to set in, including a two-night stand here in San Francisco. Sweet.

I caught a serious dance party on Saturday night at Terminal 5 with the New Deal, OTT and Subswara. Although the New Deal has announced their impending retirement, there were no signs of fatigue as they tore through a super high-energy show that had the NYC crowd bouncing. It was a great reminder of how consistently on this band has been in its nearly 12-year run.

The Royal Family Ball with Soulive @ Terminal 5, NYC 10/2/10
Words by Alex Borsody and Kevin Anderson, Photos by Rob Chapman
The Royal Family ball celebrated the release of Soulive’s new album Rubber Soulive and featured an eclectic selection of musical legends playing alongside the Royal Family, including Talib Kweli, Warren Haynes and John Scofield. The show started around 6:30 with Nigel Hall playing a set to warm up the growing crowd. Terminal 5 was a former nightclub space and has the capacity of a small arena; the three levels of the building slowly began to fill up with eager fans. READ MORE
Trey Anastasio and Classic TAB hit NYC’s Terminal 5 on Tuesday night for a high-energy show that featured a seriously reinvigorated Big Red. Read on for my review and round-up of photos, videos, and downloads…
The last Drive-by Truckers show I saw was their stellar Dirt Underneath performance at Bowery Ballroom (photos here). I was stationed front and center for one of the best concerts I saw all year. They were more powerful, unplugged, than most any other band turned up to eleven.
That was in October. Last Wednesday night the BIG ROCK SHOW returned to New York City and I was psyched.

This was my seventh time seeing this band and it is great to see how they have evolved. No longer a three-guitar attack, there is room for John Neff’s pedal steel work, and Spooner Oldham on keyboards. Spooner, in particular, has added so much, making songs I’ve listened to so many times sound fresh. His work on “Hell No I Ain’t Happy,” among others, was just fantastic.
