23 — Baltimore, MD

Puscifer are currently on tour and stopped to perform at The Lyric in Baltimore, MD on 6/1/2023. This was my first time seeing the band live. I must admit I was completely captivated by both the sound of the band and the live visuals that accompanied the music. Secret agents? Dancing aliens? Video vignettes? Check, check, and check. Bravo!

The former Dillinger Escape Plan vocalist, Greg Puciato, stopped at Underground Arts in Philly recently in support of his pair of solo albums, with the most recent being 2022’s Mirrorcell. The venue was packed and the anxiety was high. When Puciato hit the stage the crowd exploded. An extremely intense performance in an intimate, hard rock setting.

This was my first time covering a show for Hazy Eye Media and one I will not soon forget. I had a great time and look forward to seeing Greg Puciato again in the future. He seems to be an artist who will not be resting anytime soon. Continue viewing below for more of my pics from his performance in Philly. All images copyright and courtesy of Taylor Mushinski.

I have seen August Burns Red multiple times, and they never disappoint. The energy Jake Luhrs creates while on stage makes the entire crowd bounce. Having seen them before, I knew he likes to swing the microphone around. I waited for the shot and it looked as if he was aiming right for me! Great show.

Concert Review: Ministry @ The Fillmore 5/3/23 — Silver Spring, MD

Ministry and the beloved Uncle Al stopped to perform at The Fillmore in Silver Spring, MD on 5/3/2023.
