Dad-rock shows for the elder gentlemen in all of us
More Just Announced
While the biggest news of the week came when Mastadon, Dethklok, High on Fire, and Converge announced the most epic metal tour in the history of epic metal tours (which comes to the Fillmore Oct. 10), we couldn't help but notice an overwhelming theme in this week's show announcements: stuff dads like. Eternal dad comic Steve Martin comes through Colorado with a banjo in hand Oct. 24, but if you consider yourself more the "cool dad" type don't fret: The Damned plays the Bluebird Oct. 28, just for you.
