Concert etiquette… but not in the way you think.This episode isn't about rules; it's about the full experience. The energy you walk in with, the choices you make before the first song even plays, and the moments that turn a night into something you never forget.We get into our favorite shows, pre-show rituals, outfit debates (comfort vs. showing OUT), indoor vs. outdoor venues, and what it really looks like bringing kids into concert spaces.And of course… a few stories that probably should've stayed at the concert...No perfect guidelines. No right or wrong way to do it.Just real moms, real music, and the way we actually experience it.Press play

In this episode of The Bandwich Tapes, I talk again with my musical brother, the amazing Tim Hamilton. Tim's had such a rich and fascinating career that we absolutely needed to talk again. If you haven't heard the first interview with him, I encourage you to go back and listen. In this follow-up, Tim shares what life's been like recently, including the highs and challenges of a packed summer gig schedule. We dig into the evolution of country music, especially the return of more traditional sounds in the '90s, and Tim reflects on how crucial it is for a musician to have a signature sound.We also talk about his time playing in the house band at Cowboys in Kennesaw, Georgia—some great stories there—along with the memorable artists he worked with and the curveballs that come with live shows. From starstruck moments to behind-the-scenes stories about the camaraderie among musicians, Tim brings warmth, wisdom, and a lot of heart.We also reflect on the lessons we've learned from seasoned players, the changes in the Nashville scene, and just how much community and connection shape our lives in music.I hope you enjoy listening as much as I enjoyed catching up with Tim. This one's packed with stories, insights, and plenty of laughs.Thank you for listening!

Whether you're a fan of classical, experimental, indie rock, jazz, or even Cuban-inspired grooves, Iceland's capital offers a surprising variety of venues catering to every musical taste. Today, I'm taking you on a virtual tour of some of the most beloved — and sometimes overlooked — places to catch a live performance in and around Reykjavík.So, let's crank up the volume and dive in! 1. Harpa Concert Hall - Iceland's Premier Music Venue Let's start with the crown jewel of Reykjavík's music venues: Harpa. This stunning glass building by the harbor is not just an architectural icon — it's a world-class concert hall. Harpa is home to the Iceland Symphony Orchestra and Icelandic Opera, so it's your go-to for classical music, opera, and large-scale productions.But don't be fooled — Harpa also hosts jazz nights, electronic music events, and international artists across genres. The acoustics here are unmatched, and the setting? Simply magical. 2. Gamla Bíó A short walk from Harpa is Gamla Bíó, or “The Old Cinema.” This historic venue has been transformed into a cozy concert hall with vintage charm. Expect indie rock, folk, pop, and the occasional orchestral ensemble. It's an intimate setting with incredible sound, perfect for catching Icelandic artists and touring international acts in a space that feels like a hidden gem. 3. Hús Mál og Menningar Now, let's talk about one of my personal favorites: Hús Mál og Menningar, right on Laugavegur, Reykjavík's main shopping street. This bookstore-slash-bar is a cultural hub, and the upstairs stage is often alive with acoustic sets, singer-songwriter sessions, jazz, and even spoken word. The vibe here is chill, creative, and unmistakably Icelandic — it's where you can sip a drink, browse books, and hear something totally unexpected, all in one evening. 4. Mengi If you're into avant-garde, experimental, or contemporary classical music, Mengi is the place. Located in a small venue on Óðinsgata, this artist-run space regularly features performances by composers, interdisciplinary artists, and improvisational musicians. It's intimate, forward-thinking, and always pushing the boundaries of what live music can be. 5. Salurinn (Kópavogur) — Special Highlight And just a short ride outside Reykjavík in Kópavogur is Salurinn, a beautiful, acoustically rich concert hall often hosting classical, jazz, and world music.And here's something you won't want to miss: On May 31st, Icelandic musician Halli Guðmunds will be performing live at Salurinn with a six-piece band. What makes this show special? The group will be playing Cuban-inspired music and original tunes, blending Latin rhythms with Icelandic flair.It promises to be a night of danceable beats, sophisticated arrangements, and pure joy. If you're anywhere near Reykjavík at the end of May — mark your calendar. You'll be treated to a one-of-a-kind musical journey.Click here for tickets for Club Cubano. 6. Lemmy On the edgier side, we have Lemmy, Reykjavík's go-to bar for rock, punk, and metal fans. The energy here is high-octane, the drinks are flowing, and the crowd is passionate.
