Rock shows should pull an audience into that moment and appreciate what is being seen and heard. It should get them excited and revved up. But that was not the case for the Puddle of Mudd show at the House of Blues on a Monday night. The audience, who was a mixed crowd of Nascar loving fans with sleeveless shirts and preppy Yuppies sporting some type of logo from the North side, agreed with me about being indifferent of the set that Puddle of Mudd played. Was it a waste? Not necessarily, but the other opening bands like screaming Rev Theory and country style - Saving Abel, seemed to keep the morale full-throttle. Write Comment (3 Comments) |

Oh, Canada, friendly neighbor to the north, what gifts you have presented before our fortunate ears. Oh, Canada, friendly neighbor to the north, you have bestowed a great sonic gift upon us—more than a few great musicians in the past and many more to come, we hope. Oh, Canada, friendly neighbor to the north, you house a talented stable of artists under the roof of the Arts & Crafts label; Broken Social Scene, Kevin Drew, Stars, K-os, Gonzales, and of course Feist (although Feist is now contracted by Cherry Tree/Interscope).

Some would say George Michael’s best days are behind him, especially considering his solo career hasn’t exactly flourished as of late, nor has Wham! staged an obligatory reunion tour. Add in a scandalous sex episode or a variety of other tabloid fodder, and the one time global pop icon could’ve easily appeared all washed up to some skeptics. But at a fairly full United Center on Wednesday night, the singer/songwriter proved even his harshest critics incorrect, turning in a gigantic spectacle that showcased a twenty-five year career in just over two hours.
