Concert

On February 21, 2015, The Colisée in Lewiston, Maine, hosted a memorable night of alternative rock, headlined by Bush as part of their "Man on the Run" tour. The evening also featured performances by Canadian rockers Theory of a Deadman and the Los Angeles-based band Stars in Stereo. Thei ...

Time certainly does go by at a quicker pace than most of us would prefer. For example, twenty-two years ago, Breaking Benjamin hit Portland, Maine, for the first time, opening for Saliva at the legendary State Theatre.

In the early '90s, the Dave Matthews Band, known passionately as "Dave" by his fans, was on the cusp of blowing up world wide. During that time, they played at two college campuses in Maine.

WCYY is happy to present another Badfish show at the State Theatre. The ultimate Sublime tribute band wil return to Portland on 4/20... again.

The year 2000 being 25 years ago is the kind of timeline glitch that makes me question reality. For me, 2000 was all about uprooting to Portland from North Conway, NH and starting work at WCYY. Not sure how that was a quarter of a century ago, but that’s what the calendar says. ...

It was September 24th, 1996—what a night for live rock in Maine. A full moon, a sold-out Augusta Civic Center, and thousands of Pearl Jam fans rockin��� out as the band tore up the stage as only they can do for nearly 2 ½ hours.

If it gets the green light, construction is planned to start in 2025 on a new way to see shows in Portland, Maine.

23 years ago, WCYY hosted one of the biggest and most memorable Holiday Bizarre concerts with Nickelback, Saliva, Default, Jeremiah Freed and Bad Ronald.

You may have found yourself among the lucky few who get to see an amphitheater-level band in a small club before they break out and become huge mainstream stars. Well, about 200 people got to do just that 20 years ago when WCYY welcomed My Chemical Romance to be part of our annual Holiday Bizarre.

Portland Symphony Orchestra's Magic of Christmas is a tradition.

Back in 2000, the WCYY Holiday Bizarre brought Orgy, Disturbed, and Maine’s own Rustic Overtones and 6Gig to a sold-out crowd of 7,500 at the Cumberland County Civic Center. It was a night of adrenaline, chaos, and unforgettable rock energy.

WCYY's 2006 Holiday Bizarre was a big one. We welcomed back Disturbed along with Stone Sour, Flyleaf and Nonpoint. We had all 4 bands come by the radio station to chat on the air and perform for some lucky winners before the big event at the Cumberland County Civic Center.

On November 12, fans all packed in for an entertaining night of awesomeness, loudness, madness and of course weirdness, Primus was the headlining band after all, but they weren’t the only band bringing all of the energy... and weirdness.

It’s been 33 years since one of the many legendary rock shows went down at the Cumberland County Civic Center (now Cross Insurance Arena), in Portland, Maine. We’ve been blessed with a lot of them, but this one is one of those that is still talked about to this day. On October 8th, 1991, Van Halen graced the stage with their rock royalty and it was an unforgettable night.

Just because the leaves are changing doesn’t mean your concert calendar has to. From our awesome indoor venues and even a few outdoor shows left, the 4th quarter of 2024 is looking to be a solid roster for all live music tastes.

Pearl Jam frontman Eddie Vedder shared two heartfelt stories while performing at Fenway Park that brought the massive crowd to tears
