Ten years ago Bush reunited after breaking in 2002. The band, led by singer Gavin Rossdale, has since released three studio albums and has another one on the way: The Kingdom, which will be out this summer.
Over the years, Bush has put on some high energy shows. Today we look back at their 2005 show in Port Chester.
Today’s Throwback Concert:
BUSH
Man on the Run Tour
Special Guests: Theory of a Deadman and Stars In Stereo
Wednesday February 25, 2015
The Capitol Theatre – Port Chester, NY
About The Tour: In late 2014 Bush announced a six-week North American tour in support of its sixth studio album, Man on the Run. After a string of December radio festivals, the Man on the Run Tour officially kicked off in San Francisco in late January. Among the stops included The Toyota Oakdale Theatre in Wallingford and The Capitol Theatre in Port Chester, New York.
The show at The Capiitol Theatre featured a nice blend of new and old songs. But for most of the evening, Bush gave its fans a night of 90s nostalgia by playing such hits as Everything Zen, Machinehead and Comedown.

The Coronavirus has affected a lot of bands, including The Who. They were scheduled to play a handful of shows in the U.K. and Ireland in March, but those dates have been postponed to the spring of 2021.
While the band takes this unexpected touring hiatus, we look back at The Who’s secret rehearsal and soldout show in Bridgeport in 2006.
Today’s Throwback Concert:
The Who
Endless Wire Tour
Special Guest: The Pretenders
Tuesday November 28, 2006
The Arena at Harbor Yard – Bridgeport (now Webster Bank Arena)
About The Tour: The Who embarked on a worldwide concert tour in 2006 in support of their eleventh studio album, Endless Wire. It was their first album and world tour since the death of bassist John Entwistle in 2002. The Endless Wire Tour began with a 24-date European Tour before coming to the United States.
But before their first U.S. show, The Who rehearsed at The Arena at Harbor Yard on September 9-10, 2006. The rehearsals were not only closed to the public, but it wasn’t publicized that the band was rehearsing in Connecticut until after they had left town.
The first leg of the North American Tour kicked off in Philadelphia at The Wachovia Center on September 12th. The band returned to Bridgeport in November for their first show in Connecticut since 1999. Joining them were special guests The Pretenders, who played a strong hour long set before The Who took the stage. The sold out audience at Harbor Yard rocked out to a two-hour Who set that included new songs off Endless Wire and classic songs like The Seeker, Who Are You and My Generation.
