KRUI’s recap of When We Were Young Festival 2025 in Las Vegas. Throughout 4 stages, 53 bands tore through their sets across a 13 hour day. Here is how I spent my day at When We Were Young.
Songwriters Ken Pomeroy and Loudon Wainwright III played at the James Thater for ICSF 2025. Seeing songwriters encouraging people to start and showing them how to begin is what makes art happen.
A celebration took place in Chicago this September. The 20th edition of Riot Fest has come and passed, and while still covered in a layer of dirt and sweat, next year’s edition can’t come soon enough.
Soldier Field finally had something to celebrate again, as the Chicago Bears snapped their eight-game losing streak to the New Orleans Saints with a 26-14 win. Powered by a dominant defense and resurgent run game, the Bears overcame offensive struggles to notch their fourth straight win and move to 4-2 on the season.
On October 1, 2025, I journeyed to Val Air Ballroom in Des Moines to see a performance from Father John Misty, and left with a disappointment most bitter and foul, great show though!
