21 — St. Louis, MO

Trippie Redd’s “Trip at Knight Tour” stopped in St. Louis and put on an amazing performance August 28, 2021. The St. Louis Music Park was packed full of adoring fans and photographers. The atmosphere was intense, and the entire experience had a somewhat chaotic element to it. Redd’s performance was super high energy, and Redd himself was super high as well.

Anyway, in this photo flashback, we’re taking a trip down memory lane with Trippie Redd. There are only a few stops left on his Trip at Knight Tour.

Concert Review: Dermot Kennedy @ The Pageant 8/8/21 — St. Louis, MO

It was a rainy Sunday night on August 8, 2021 when Dermot Kennedy took the stage at The Pageant in St. Louis. The venue hummed with the energy that only a sold out show could provide. The show itself was emotional for me in numerous ways. This was the first concert I attended since the pandemic started in early 2020, over a year ago. Just being back in a crowd of like-minded music lovers was enough to send tingles straight down my spine.

*Japanese Breakfast (Photo by Andy Jillson)*

Japanese Breakfast played for a sold out crowd at The Fillmore in Silver Spring, MD last week. This was the first performance of their 2021 tour, and one I will remember for years to come. The venue was extremely hot and packed tightly; however, the crowd loved every second of it. I was personally so caught up in the musical excitement that three songs in the photo pit went by in a blink. Amazing performance. Amazing artist. Enough said.

Anyone who has a chance should give Japanese Breakfast a listen and buy a ticket to one of the shows. Tickets are on sale now and available for purchase at japanesebreakfast.rocks/tour. Continue reading below for more photos information. All images copyright and courtesy of Andy Jillson.
