    Get ready to go down memory lane this weekend.  Helmet the hard rock hold over from the 90’s will be tearing their way through town this weekend.  Frontman Page Hamilton and company finally break their moratorium on touring (they haven’t been on the road since 2013), by celebrating the 20th anniversary of their landmark record Betty.  The critically acclaimed album has often been regarded as the group’s “experimental” album, which often makes it a point of contention or affection among those loyal to the band.

    The group will performing the album in its entirety, as well as, many fan favorites from the band’s six other releases.  And with rumors circulating that Helmet has been working on material for an eighth album, longtime fans might cross their fingers for a glimpse of some new material, as well.

    They will be performing tomorrow night at The New Vintage, show starts at 9:00 PM and tickets are $20-$25.

    About Brent Owen

    Born and raised in Louisville, I have lived here most of my life (except during a short furlough, when I, lovelorn and naive, followed a girl to Baton Rouge). My roots are here, my family, my friends, and my life are all here. I work primarily as a free-lance writer for a few local and regional publications. I have also written two books (one a memoir, the other a novel) that barring some divine intervention, will probably never see the light of day. I find myself deeply ingrained in the local bar scene, or perhaps better said, I often indulge in the local drinking culture. I love music, movies, comedy, and really just about any other live performance art.
