Singer and multi-instrumentalist Stelth Ulvang, a member of the platinum-selling Colorado folk-rock band The Lumineers, unfurled an impromptu performance early Monday night upstairs at the cozy Grand Rapids brewery and pub.

Or, at least heard ’round Grand Rapids’ social media sphere (and likely far, far beyond) as reports of singer-songwriter Ray LaMontagne’s expletive-laden on-stage meltdown flooded Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

Glitter, cowboy hats and boots, bright posters and summer dresses filled the streets downtown Grand Rapids for Taylor Swift's performance at Van Andel Arena.  Can I just say that all of you were absolutely gorgeous?  What a classy group of fans follow Taylor and her music...

Seeing U2 in concert is a chance of a lifetime and it comes with a lot of buzz including what not to bring and what happens after the show. About 70,000 Michiganders flooded Spartan Stadium last night to hear the likes of Bono's smooth voice fill the air!  U2 was originally scheduled to perform last June before Bono had to have emergency back surgery.
