Every year that One Direction toured in Chicago, my parents gifted me what I considered the equivalent of life, One Direction concert tickets. Always relatively close to the stage, never close enough. Christmas of 2014 rolled around, when tickets would be inevitably gifted to me. However, when they weren't, my world came crumbling down around me. Luckily for me, my parents bought them in January when the only seats left were floor seats. Winter ended... Zayn left the

Former member of the label group know as Funk Volume, Marcus Hopson, or Hopsin for short, had a falling out with the Funk Volume group. There is a lot of speculation over if why he left was justifiable or if he made the right decision. I just want to say that he did the right thing.

John Sullivan and Chuck Klosterman are both very skilled and talented journalists, as I have already observed by the few essays that I have read by them. In Sullivan’s “The Final Comeback of Axl Rose,” he is describing his experience at one of Rose's comeback performances in New York with different band members mocking the originals, as well as digging up Axl’s past in Lafayette, Indiana. Klosterman’s piece, “The Pretenders,” isn’t so much about Axl Rose himself, but is focusing on the motivation behind tribute bands, specifically Paradise City, a Guns N’ Roses tribute. Throughout both of these essays, the authors have drastic tone shifts that greatly add to the messages within the pieces.

To start, if Mel left his band they would be missing a major part of that band. Lets say that Mel plays

I agree with him leaving, i believe it was mainly a thing about finding himself and enjoying time alone. ex: “he’d been in the habit of taking it on extended solo road trips when classes weren’t in session…” (pg. 21)

In May, BREATHEcast published a report on Williams’ decision to quit his rock band and release his debut gospel single “Chain Breaker” in June. The rocker had also released a statement conveying his regret in his past involvement with drugs and alcohol.

“You’ve got to listen to the heavens, you got to try to understand. The greatness of their movement is just as small as it is grand.” Most young adults of my generation do not know who The Grateful Dead are, but they unknowingly dawn the apparels and slang created in the counterculture of the bands following the Deadheads. The band, The Grateful Dead, became popular in the 60s and carried out wide spread recognition and fame into the 80s. Their calming, peace-promoting music became popular because it ‘transported’ people, it took them away from whatever they were going through in their life and set them on a new path. Fans of the band

Joe Perry leaves and makes his own band. Joe Perry and Steven Tyler had many differences. In 1979 Joe Perry left the group and the true reason is unknown. There were different guesses of why he left such as jealousy or a fight between his and Steven Tyler’s girlfriend (Schlesinger, 2008). Joe Perry formed the band called the Joe Perry Project when he left Aerosmith. The Joe Perry Project band broke up in 1984 and Joe’s manager wanted him to go back and be part of Aerosmith (Schlesinger, 2008). Brad Whitford leaves Aerosmith. Brad left Aerosmith and joined Joe Perry in the Joe Perry Project (Schlesinger,

Fall Out Boy (FOB) is an American rock band from Illinois that originated in 2001, from 2001 to present time the band has released a total of nine albums, twenty-one singles. The band has sold a total of 7.5 million albums. Sadly in 2010 the band called a quits as Wentz was becoming a father, and Stump went on to do a solo album “Solo Punk”. In FOB decided just like any other rock band that they could burn out or fade away, so in 2013 they staged a comeback… “Save Rock and Roll”

Panic! At the Disco Panic! At the Disco (P!ATD) is a pop punk rock band that consists of the lead singer and face of the group, Brendon Urie, and several unnamed/unpopular guitarists and drummers. The biggest competitor for P!ATD is the other main stream pop punk rock band called Fall Out Boy (FOB) which consists of Patrick Stump, Pete Wentz, Joe Trohman, and Andy Hurley. Although P!ATD and FOB have similar musical styles, the different music videos each group presents, the varying tunes and lyrics, and disparate stage presence during live concerts, is why I lean toward P!ATD as my favorite overall band, with FOB falling just behind it.

A “blues based rock band” GnR crossed over from rock to popular music, they were labelled as the most dangerous band in the world, but they were also the most popular. While their popularity soared, no one prepared them for superstardom. Substance abuse, power struggles and constantly living under the microscope of the press took its toll on their relationship. Where once they were a family, a gang of five, outside influences took a “divide and conquer

I bought my ticket to the Death of a Bachelor tour in late November and have been anxiously anticipating the show since. With incredible production, enticing setlists, and crowd enthusiasm to boot, Panic! At The Disco did not disappoint.
