ONYX w. R.A. the Rugged Man @ Nectars April 28th

Yeah, that’s quite a headline. There’s going to be a lot of big 2023 shows getting announced over the next month, but for a certain subspecies of Old Head™, this is the lineup to beat for now. Not just for the nostalgia, either: both Onyx and R.A. the Rugged Man have decades-long reputations for live shows that are just shy of riots. (That’s a compliment, of course; watching Nectars turn into a mosh pit is a rare opportunity these days.)

Also on the horizon: Cormega will touch down at Higher Ground on May 10th, and Souls of Mischief will be there on June 15th to celebrate the 30th anniversary of ‘93 Til Infinity. More big names coming soon, tough, stay tuned.
