You might not think of the Portland Expo as one of Portland's best concert spots. So you may be a bit surprised when you see who's on this list of Expo concerts; Queen, Bob Seger, INXS, The Clash, Snoop Dogg, The Beach Boys, and Jethro Tull have all played the Expo

We had a bunch of concert announcements this week in New England. You remember concerts...when we all get together and go crazy with our favorite musicians?

The now-defunct Scarborough Downs racetrack was known as one of the great harness racing tracks in America. But did you know that The Downs also hosted some pretty amazing concerts in its history? You might be surprised at who came to Scarborough! There are not a ton of shows (we count 6) but they w…

Do you remember all the concerts that happened at The Ballpark in OOB? Between 1986 and 1997 there were 75 concerts. Big names too! AC/DC, Cher, Aerosmith, Whitney Houston, Van Halen, Fleetwood Mac, and many others. Even though the noise drove the town crazy, the shows at the Ballpark- called SEAPAC…

The Portland Exposition Building, officially the James A. Banks Sr. Exposition Building, but known to most as "The Expo" opened in 1915. It's the second-oldest arena in continuous operation in the USA, which alone makes it pretty historic. We've all been to the Expo for a middle…

The popular concert venue Port City Music Hall announced it's permanent closure after a downturn in revenue due to the coronavirus pandemic

Man, do we miss concerts here at CYY. It's where we are most alive and where we get to hang with YOU. One of our most favorite spots in town is AURA. And not just because it's 100 yards from the CYY studios so we can sneak away for a beer to the AURA sports grill in the middle of the day. …

The idea of "drive-in" concerts came alive this past weekend in Denmark. The country, not the Maine town. But what IF drive-in concerts were held in Maine. Would you go? Bands use a sound system as well as putting the audio feed on the FM dial so you can blast it in your vehicle.

94.3 WCYY presents New Politics and Xander Nelson on Tuesday, June 18th at Aura for the low, low price of just 94 cents.

With new album releases, big music festivals and progressive punk bands, this weekend's mix has a little something for everyone!
