• Bloc Party Packs Them In At The Marquee

  In their review of Bloc Party's latest record Intimacy, the guys over at Pitchfork went in to a long and arduous comparison between the band and U2. I didn't really see it, until last night's show at The Marquee.Playing for an impressively packed house - Sunday night shows are risky in Phoenix, which isn't a great live music market for its size anyway - the British indie act's singer Kele Okereke was incredibly charismatic on stage, striking his messianic poses that'd make Mephisto proud while m

• Concert Review: U2 Gets Intimate in Glendale

  Luke Holwerda​There's something inherently incongruous about the serene, relentlessly thoughtful music U2 made at its creative peak and the stadium-sized spectacle that came to Glendale last night. Sure, the band has been one of the few extant rock acts capable of (nearly) selling-out football fields for two decades, but I still say something about seeing such personal songs sung to crowds that large just feels weird. And I know I'm not the only one who noticed."Believe it or not we built this

  ​How was last night's U2 show at The University of Phoenix Stadium? Well, I slaved over a review here but why take a critic's word for it when you can consult the twittersphere.And the Twittersphere says.... cdaukas: Traffic is bad. U2 is good. Almost there. So, yeah, that's pretty much the gist of it, though many tweets used slightly more hyperbolic language. Just in case you wanted more though here are a few other 140 character blasts from Glentucky...iamchanelle:
