Live Shows
- Orville Peck at First Avenue, June 4, 2022 – I saw Orville Peck with a friend at First Avenue. When Oraville runs for president he has my vote.
- Cannibal Corpse at Skyway Theatre, March 2, 2022 – I saw Cannibal Corpse by myself at the Skyway Theatre on Ash Wednesday. Revocation were very good; Cannibal Corpse were awesome. Corpsegrinder can still shred his vocals like his guitarists shred their fretboards.
