Billy Idol & Steve Stevens


at Palace Theatre

The rebel himself, Billy Idol announced his remixed and remastered Christmas album Happy Holidays, out now for the first time on vinyl and streaming platforms via Dark Horse Records. The new version is packed with new artwork and available for purchase on black vinyl, CD, digital and on limited edition white vinyl.



If you didn’t know, Dark Horse Records (no relations to Dark Horse Comics), is a newly relaunched record label. Originally created in 1974 George Harrison (you know, of The Beatles), but it is now run by Dhani Harrison and David Zonshine. Other artists on the new label includes Joe Strummer and Ravi Shankar.



Dhani Harrison (George’s son) is an Idol fan, commenting, “I couldn’t be more excited to welcome Billy Idol to the Dark Horse Records family. Billy is a legend, and his music couldn’t fit the Dark Horse persona any better. I’ve loved his music throughout my whole life, so to be able to give this new music a home on our historic label is a massive honour.”



Be sure to check out Idol live at the Palace Theatre, in St Paul, on December 5th, with Steve Stevens, as part of their “Turned On, Tuned In, and Unplugged” acoustic tour.

Child Bite

From Detroit, Michigan, Child Bite is heading up to Toronto to play some shows at NXNE. The most interesting thing about the band, that I’ve read, is that they use a gaming joystick on stage. I guess I’ll have to check them out to see what that is all about.

Chairlift

Chairlift played to a half-filled venue, and for the most part, the audience seemed half there mentally as well…. Lead singer, Caroline Polachek, showed off clear, hypnotizing vocals, but coupled with droning synths

After Chairlift broke up in 2017, lead singer Caroline Polachek decided to strike out on her own with her debut record Pang in 2019. Unfortunately, no long after the album came out, we were hit with the COVID pandemic… so perhaps this upcoming December 7th show at First Avenue, may be the first time we’ll hear Pang live.
