Third Eye Blind Energize a Young, Sold-Out Lupo’s Crowd
As far as concerts go, I think whether one is left feeling that a show is satisfying or not depends first on the attitude he or she goes into the venue with in the first place. Clearly, a sold-out crowd for Third Eye Blind and openers Alpha Rev at Lupo’s Heartbreak Hotel last Tuesday night [...]
Photos of Julian Casablancas at Lupo’s, 3/23
This was quite possibly the most difficult concert I’ve ever had to take photos at. The rules for concert photographers typically are twofold: (1) you can only take photos during the first three songs, and (2) no flash.

Dashboard Confessional Perk Up Lupo’s, Have Stolen My Heart
As someone who has been to a decent number of concerts, any band that I’ve thought of as less than stellar who really impresses me is always a great joy, almost better than a band I’ve adored from the get-go.

The powerful guitars and steady bass and drums, not to mention the essential keyboards [...]
Neko Case, the boys of Calexico Warm Up The Stage at Lupo’s
A refined yet gracious crowd was treated to a riveting folk-country-rock set last Saturday night at Lupo’s Heartbreak Hotel in downtown Providence. Neko Case, a prominent figure in American/Canadian alternative-country (and member of indie band The New Pornographers), graced the stage with her accompanying band of characters and instruments as well as openers Joey and [...]

Concert Review: Silversun Pickups Rock WBRU’s Birthday Bash
Among the hordes of crowd surfers and tireless dancers in the pit, a sold-out crowd that reached the far-back rows of the balcony was captivated by the genuine surge of music, power, and dedication to sound that the Silversun Pickups perfected last Saturday night at Lupo’s Heartbreak Hotel.
