Los Lobos at the Minnesota State Fair (August 25, 2025)
Monday was Senior’s Day at the Minnesota State Fair, and there was no better band (Los Lobos) to play for this demographic than a group of guys that have been together for over fifty years. But that was later and there was still much to do.
The Current’s Music On-A-Stick Show at the Grandstand, Minnesota State Fair (August 23, 2025)
The Minnesota State Fair is one the largest in the United States, and as mentioned in the preview, there’s a lot of music there, including nightly events at the Grandstand Stage. Local independent radio station The Current hosted Music on a Stick with a long evening of hip hop music, headlined by local Atmosphere.
Moonstone Quill at Breckenridge Hogfest (August 23, 2025)
A weekend trip to the mountains of Colorado turned into an impromptu music tour. After a lucky coincidence seeing David Devett at the Bucksnort Saloon in Sphinx Park, I had continued good fortune on the music front. A dinner at the Edwin Restaurant in Breckenridge turned into another unexpected and wonderful encounter with local music. Once again, I did not fully pay attention to the sound coming from the man playing a guitar as I got seated in an upscale restaurant in Breck. And, once again, as I got settled and was able to focus on the music, I realized that I was in the presence of a talented musician. Lucky me!
David Devitt at Bucksnort Saloon, Sphinx Park (August 21, 2025)
The Bucksnort Saloon in Sphinx Park, CO is an off-the-beaten-path legendary establishment up in the mountains off of 285 between Conifer and Bailey. Unless you were one of the 50?, 100? People who lived on Elk Creek Rd, you’d have no reason other than Bucksnort to take the ~6 miles from 285. The Bucksnort under new ownership as of 2018, couldn’t quite recover from the impact of COVID and without announcement, closed the saloon in 2022.

Morrissey at Teatro del Vittoriale, Gardone Riviera (July 23, 2025)

Registered Historical Facts 2025
When I was moving, I couldn’t bring everything with me. So, I thought the easiest thing was to leave my CDs, DVDs, and books behind. I figure I had already ripped all my DVDs and CDs, and, you know, I could always rebuild. I just didn’t have the room to bring everything with me.
Turns out, leaving books and CDs behind was one of the biggest regrets of my life.

Mark Mallman at Parkway Theater, Minneapolis (August 8, 2025)
Local Twin Cities legend Mark Mallman was celebrating the release of his newest album (his eleventh), Magic Time, at the Parkway Theater in South Minneapolis. Mallman is widely known in indie circles for his long body of work, but also the craziness of his live shows, which sometimes lean into full performance art. His Marathon shows, well over 24 hours each, are great examples of the lengths he is willing to go. The newest album, self-described as a “paranormal concept record” was the main topic du jour.

The Coronas at Ceol on the River, Harriet Island (August 7, 2025)
The Irish Fair of Minnesota is one of the largest annual festivals of its type in the country, with a full three days of events. Taking over Harriet Island in downtown St. Paul, the Irish Fair will have half a dozen stages for music and dance events, and tents and space for plenty of food, drink, crafts, and sports. And with all of that, this year they are expanding with a Thursday night event, Ceol on the River (ceol being the Irish word for music). Three bands, headlined by alternative rock band The Coronas kicked off the first ever event.
Horsegirl at Fine Line, Minneapolis (August 5, 2025)
I’m not sure if it’s a first for We Heart Music, but last night welcomed the return of a band Horsegirl and its opening act that played at the same venue two years before. Also the drummer in the opening act is the younger brother to one of the headliners. So, a lot of synergy, maybe a perfect trifecta if you could gamble on music.
