Cameron has a long history on Queen West and many of today's top musicians started their career there. The outside has always interesting mural and the ants, despite their creepiness have certain draw. The building is from 1880 (build for Angus Cameron dry goods store) It became a hotel in 1920's and in the 1980's the street level morphed into entertainment venue. Some of the performers lived upstairs at one time or other. Cameron was one of the first venues which launched Queen West edginess. I rarely frequent this place. Somehow, I do not feel that I fit.

This mural is from John Abrams (2012) . It depicts a scene from Hitchcock movie Vertigo (Kim Novak). It was replaced by another Abrams murals few years later. Abrams has painted every mural on this wall since 1984.

The 83 story tall marble Aon Center serves as a dramatic backdrop to Millenium Park's Jay Pritzker Pavilion, Chicago's outdoor 11,000 capacity amphitheater (designed by Frank Gehry) where audiences sit on the lawn while attending concerts.

If you enlarge, you will see downtown Denver in the distance on the left just beyond the slope of the hill.

During my stay in Valencia last September I rented an AirBnb apartment close to the City of Arts and Sciences. I walked past the ROIG Arena on many occasions and whilst it looked quite shiny and new I didn't realise that it had only opened a couple of weeks before.

 

I liked it's undulating shape but the ERRE Architects / HOK designed building really came alive at night thanks to the way the facade was animated by lighting each of these panels individually to become a giant screen of everchanging, shifting colours.

From Wikipedia, "Roig Arena, previously proposed as Casal España Arena or Valencia Arena, is a multi-purpose indoor arena in Valencia, Spain, that opened in September 2025.

 

The plot is located between the streets Ángel Villena, Bomber Ramón Duart and Antonio Ferrandis, next to La Fonteta; it was used as a parking lot for the attendants to the former venue and L'Alqueria. The arena is being funded by Juan Roig, who created the company Licampa 1617 S.L. to carry out the project. After a fifty-year concession, the facilities will revert to the municipality. It will host matches for the 2028 European Men's Handball Championship.

 

The venue has a capacity of 15,600 for basketball fixtures, of 18,600 for 180° concerts and of 20,000 for 360° shows. It also features around 1,300 parking spaces.

 

Building works started on 29 June 2020 and ended on 5 September 2025. In 2020 the arena was expected to open in 2023, but was later delayed to 2025, and it was finally opened on 6 September 2025. It is expected to replace La Fonteta as the main venue of Valencia Basket."

Saratoga, CA

 

At this scenic venue, I've seen Boz Scaggs (x3), Chris Isaak, Smokey Robinson, Van Morrison, and some others that have faded from my memory.

On a beautiful warm Wednesday evening I cycled over to the Millennium dome as I still like to call it or present title the 02 arena on Greenwich peninsula along the Thames river path from Woolwich.

The largest concert venue in the UK was certainly different & quieter to the last time I was here for obvious reasons!

 

It has never been my favourite London music venue as I prefer the sound, exciting atmosphere & slope of Brixton academy. The perfect size, funny memories & acoustics of London forum & the beautiful intimacy of Union chapel.

 

But it holds a special place in my heart as it reminds me of my dear departed mum who visited here with her friends when it opened back in 2000 & I remember her so happy about telling me what a fantastic day she had, showing me photos & momentos she had bought....Joyful memories :0)

Bruce Hornsby performs with the Noisemakers at the Virginia Theatre in Champaign, Illinois. It was a terrific show, with the band focusing on new material and deep tracks, while taking requests from the audience, which I have never seen at a concert. Very cool.

 

The Minneapolis Armory, constructed in 1935, is a large municipal building that has served numerous purposes throughout its history. Originally built as an armory for the Minnesota National Guard, it later hosted sporting events, concerts, and public gatherings. This photograph from 2013 shows the interior before its extensive renovation into a modern concert venue. The building's distinctive barrel-vaulted roof and vast open space are visible, hinting at its past utility and future potential.

The immersive experience created by the imagery at the Sphere in Las Vegas is next-level, which really doesn't capture the magnitude of the experience. It's simply amazing.

I took a moment to review photos taken in 2020, during the Covid year, and edited a few tonight. One picture is of Bourbon Theatre in Lincoln, Nebraska. To confirm, yes, this venue survived.

Wacker Drive at night, looking northeast towards the Wrigley Building, with the city illuminated enchantingly. Captured after the America concert at the Chicago Theatre. There are always amazing views of the city along the Chicago River (to the left of the photo) and in this area of the city.

Baluarte de la Candelaria is a fortress built in 1672 as part of the Cádiz sea wall. It was a protector of the city, but now this fortification is dedicated to cultural activities of all kinds from concerts, to workshops, art exhibitions, and Carnival, just to name a few. The views of the ocean from its walls are spectacular.

Rollies in Sauk Rapids, MN. A real redneck kind of joint.

On the corner of Wilshire Boulevard and Western Avenue. The name "Wiltern" is a combination of the two street names.

I'm not sure if you will ever see this, but if you do, you should know that this was one of the best nights of my life, being with you again, and spending time together after all of the years that have passed. I only wanted to see you once more, if only once more, and I'm fortunate to have had the experience after a lifetime apart. No matter how difficult and wonderful this was, all at the same time, this made my life richer. For a brief moment, I was 22 again, and that was a remarkable feeling that I will always cherish.

 

For her, at the Sphere in Las Vegas, with the Eagles, sending the best of my love...

 

"The boat's steaming in

I watch the side wheel spin and I

Think about her when I hear that whistle blow

I can't change my mind

I knew all the time that she'd go

But that's a choice I made long ago..."

 

Mandolin Rain, Bruce Hornsby

The Hollywood Palladium honors the untimely passing of Foo Fighters drummer Taylor Hawkins

Once a cinema and fondly remembered concert venue, Union Street, now a gross high rise office block out of scale, out of architectural aesthetics, you name it, to it’s surroundings. So out of scale, British Airways Silver Fin pension fund had to build a similar gaff next door to keep it company. Only exterior detail left is the beautiful art-deco doors seen here. It would appear the Compton cinema organ, survived an in between times makeover as a night club, when it was removed for storage and further use, but current status is unknown (TBC).

26 JAN 2026: It was -10°C outside and most of the audience was bundled in bubble jackets to hear Handel’s Messiah for Trondheim’s Barokkfest in Nidarosdomen. After dark the grey, unadorned, stonework of Nidaros is especially enchanting. No gold. No paint. Just shadows, vaults and carved lines. Awesome.

 

This capture is from my selected a seat at the junction of the transept and the nave. Right next to a pillar the acoustics and ambiance were great—but a chill rippled through the cathedral on a whim, and the stone held that chill. Luxury problems.

 

Nevertheless, the performance was energetic and beautiful. I imagine the final applause must have been anticlimactic for the artists(*) for Norwegian audiences in bubble jackets on a Monday are nothing like boisterous appreciative Italians at an opera.

 

The musicians this day for the record:

Ensemble: Vox Nidrosiensis and Orkester Nord

conducted by Martin Wählberg

 

Soloists:

Marie Perbost, soprano

Anthea Pichanick, alto

Samuel Boden, tenor

Hävard Stensvold, bass

 

(Trondheim, Norway)

An unreal experience seeing the Eagles perform at the Sphere in Vegas, perhaps the most dynamic and compelling entertainment experience I have been a part of. Don Henley is illuminated in purple.
