Mastodon @ Concord Pavilion

I’ve been to a fair number of shows in 2025, but sadly only one or two that were metal. Today’s photo comes from 2023, when Brent Hinds was still alive, and just a day after I saw him enjoying a cold one at the Black Sheep in Ashland (which is also no longer with us).

Black Label Society’s Dario Lorina @ Roseland

I’m looking forward to seeing Dario again in November when his band, Dark Chapel, will be opening for Zakk Sabbath in Bend.
