COLLECTIVE SOUL Rock & Roll Express Tour Mohegan Sun Arena Uncasville, Connecticut August 16, 2018 Photos & Review by Dan Wenc The Rock & Roll Express Tour Featuring Collective Soul and 3 Doors Down was full steam ahead at the Mohegan Sun Casino Arena. Soul Asylum had also been on this tour, but was not in the package for that night. This arrangement of bands together proved to be a perfect mix featuring bands of the mid 90’s era through the early 2000’s, who have been making great music outside of the post-grunge era. The night kicked off with Collective Soul taking the stage withRead More →

AUTOGRAPH | VIXEN | SLAUGHTER ROCK OF THE 80’s Mohegan Sun Arena Uncasville, Connecticut October 6, 2017 There is nothing like a night at the Casino, and unlike the night before at Hampton Beach Casino in New Hampshire, a Casino with slot machines.

VIXEN Mohegan Sun Casino Wolf Den Uncasville, Connecticut April 27, 2017 Photos & Review by Dan Wenc It had been a long time since I’ve seen Vixen live. The year was 1989 when I first saw Vixen when they opened up for Ozzy along with White Lion at the Centrum (now DCU Center) in Worcester, Massachusetts. Talk about a memorable show with that line-up. Back in the days when a ticket for a show like that went for around $20. Those were the days. Vixen has still remained a constant in my regular musical playlist to this day. Vixen was out on the road again and thisRead More →
