SUMMARY:505 EQ Albuquerque Deathcore Matinee at the Lobo Theater (Saturday\, June 27)
DESCRIPTION:Albuquerque deathcore matinee at the Historic Lobo Theater\n505 EQ is bringing an Albuquerque deathcore matinee to the Historic Lobo Theater on Saturday\, June 27\, 2026\, and the doors swing open early. Music starts at 3:00 PM\, which makes this a rare daytime crusher for anyone who wants their breakdowns before sundown and their night still wide open. Three heavy local acts are on the bill: Inferno Antichrist\, Negative Order\, and Narcotic Asphyxiation. \nThis is the kind of show the Lobo does well. Big room\, real stage\, a proper sound system\, and a full bar\, all dropped into a Saturday afternoon instead of a late weeknight. If you have been meaning to catch the harder end of the 505 underground without staying out past midnight\, this Albuquerque deathcore matinee is built for you. \nWho is playing\nThe lineup is pure local heavy. Inferno Antichrist (Instagram @infernoantichrist) headlines a roster that leans into the punishing\, blast-heavy side of deathcore. Negative Order (@negative.order) and Narcotic Asphyxiation (@narcotic_asphyxiation) round out the afternoon with their own takes on the genre. These are working Albuquerque bands\, so the best way to hear what you are walking into is to pull up their pages before the show and turn the volume up. \nExpect tight sets\, plenty of low end\, and a crowd that knows when to move. Matinee timing tends to bring out the people who are actually there for the music\, which usually means a better pit and a better room. \nWhat to expect\nPlan on a fast-moving afternoon of three sets back to back. The Lobo stage gives each band room to work\, and the theater acoustics carry the heavy stuff without turning it to mud. Grab a drink from the bar\, find your spot\, and settle in. Daytime shows have their own energy\, looser and more social\, with enough light to actually see the band and the people you came with. \nDoors\, ID policy\, and tickets\nThis is an 18 and over show. Bring a valid physical ID. Photos of an ID on your phone will not be accepted at the door\, so make sure you have the real thing on you. Admission is 10 dollars at the door\, cash or card. There are no advance tickets for this one\, so show up\, pay at the door\, and get inside. \nDoors and first band are both at 3:00 PM. Get there early if you want to catch all three sets and stake out a good spot near the stage. \nGetting to the Lobo\nThe Historic Lobo Theater sits at 3013 Central Ave NE in Nob Hill\, right on historic Route 66. It is an easy spot to find\, with street parking along Central and the surrounding side streets. The venue runs a full bar\, so you can grab a drink between sets without leaving the room. For more upcoming shows at the theater\, check the full lineup on our events page. \nSaturday\, June 27\, doors at 3:00 PM\, three bands\, 10 dollars at the door. Come early\, bring your ID\, and let 505 EQ run the afternoon loud. \nWhy a matinee show works\nDaytime metal shows make a lot of sense. An Albuquerque deathcore matinee opens the door to people who work nights\, have families\, or just do not want to commit a whole evening to a late set. You get the same intensity\, the same volume\, and the same community\, packed into a few hours of Saturday afternoon. By the time the last band finishes\, you still have your whole night ahead of you. \nIt is also a solid entry point if you are newer to the local heavy scene. The room is easy to navigate\, the timing is forgiving\, and three bands in one afternoon is a fast way to find your next favorite Albuquerque act. New faces and old regulars tend to end up side by side at these afternoon shows. \nQuick details\nDate: Saturday\, June 27\, 2026. Music starts at 3:00 PM. Location: Historic Lobo Theater\, 3013 Central Ave NE\, Albuquerque. Admission: 10 dollars at the door\, cash or card\, no advance sales. Age policy: 18 and over with a valid physical ID. Bands: Inferno Antichrist\, Negative Order\, and Narcotic Asphyxiation\, presented by 505 EQ.

SUMMARY:One Last Funky Dollar A Funky Soul Dance Party
DESCRIPTION:Get ready to shake it down at One Last Funky Dollar\, a high-energy funky soul dance party at The Historic Lobo Theater & Event Center on Friday\, June 26\, 2026. Albuquerque’s own One More Silver Dollar Band trades their usual southern-rock setlist for a horn-driven\, soul-saturated dance night — bringing an expanded lineup with a full ABQ horn section and Colleen Elvidge on lead vocals to The Lobo’s 550-capacity floor. \nWhat Is “One Last Funky Dollar”?\n“One Last Funky Dollar” is a special funk-and-soul-focused show by One More Silver Dollar Band\, the Albuquerque-based ensemble best known for their Allman Brothers Band tribute work. For these horn-section nights — affectionately called the “Funky Dollar” variant — the band leans into deep funk grooves\, classic soul\, and the syncopated rhythms that connect southern rock to the broader American songbook. Expect extended jams\, layered harmonies\, and a dance floor that doesn’t sit still. \nOne More Silver Dollar Band — Albuquerque’s Allman Brothers Heirs Apparent\nOne More Silver Dollar Band (also known as OMSB or OMSD) is one of Albuquerque’s most respected working bands\, dedicated to the music of the Allman Brothers Band and their extended musical family — Bob Weir\, the Tedeschi Trucks tradition\, and the broader southern rock and soul pantheon. Their shows are known for soaring twin-guitar work\, soulful vocals\, and a rock-solid rhythm section that locks in for serious extended jams. More info at omsdband.com. \nWho’s on Stage at “One Last Funky Dollar”?\nThe Funky Dollar lineup brings together the core OMSB band plus the ABQ Horn Section: \n\n🎸 Andrew Holcomb — Guitar\, Lead Vocals\n🎸 Phil Giuliano — Guitar\n🥁 Steve Hull — Drums\n🎹 Don Stevenson — Keys\, Vocals\n🎵 Michael Wiese — Bass\n🎤 Colleen Elvidge — Lead Vocals\n🎺 Doug Bellen — Trumpet (ABQ Horn Section)\n🎷 Carli Marshall — Saxophones (ABQ Horn Section)\n🎵 Travis Rourke — Trombone (ABQ Horn Section)\n\nEvent Details — Friday\, June 26\, 2026\n\nEvent: One Last Funky Dollar — A Funky Soul Dance Party\nFeaturing: One More Silver Dollar Band (OMSB) with the ABQ Horn Section\nDate: Friday\, June 26\, 2026\nDoors: 7:00 PM\nEnd: 11:00 PM\nLocation: The Historic Lobo Theater & Event Center\, 3013 Central Ave NE\, Albuquerque\, NM 87106\nTickets: $15 — available on Eventbrite or at the door\nAge: 21+ (full bar event)\nCapacity: 550 standing/dance floor\nAccessibility: ADA compliant venue\n\nWhat to Expect — Funk\, Soul\, and Southern Boogie\n“One Last Funky Dollar” leans into the dance-floor side of the OMSB catalog. Expect funk and soul cuts from the Allman Brothers’ deeper catalog\, James Brown-style horn punctuation\, and selections that range across Stevie Wonder\, Tower of Power\, Otis Redding\, and the funkier corners of the Grateful Dead’s repertoire. Colleen Elvidge’s lead vocals bring grit and elegance to the soul material\, and the three-piece ABQ Horn Section transforms what’s normally a guitar-led tribute into a full-on dance band. \nThe Historic Lobo Theater — Albuquerque’s Best Floor for a Dance Party\nThe Historic Lobo Theater is purpose-built for a night like this. Located at 3013 Central Ave NE in Albuquerque’s Nob Hill neighborhood — on historic Route 66 — the venue’s 550-capacity standing floor lets you get close to the band while still having room to dance. The full-service bar runs all night\, the original Art Deco architecture sets the mood\, and the building has hosted Albuquerque audiences since 1938. ADA accessible. Located on the Albuquerque Rapid Transit (ART) Central Avenue line. \nWhy Catch OMSB at the Lobo Theater?\nOne More Silver Dollar Band typically plays Albuquerque rooms like Fusion\, Marble Brewery\, and the Brewhouse — great venues\, but smaller and more bar-focused. The Lobo Theater date gives the band a real stage\, full sound system\, and the room to stretch out the way the music demands. For OMSB fans\, this is one of the bigger Albuquerque shows on the band’s 2026 calendar. \nFrequently Asked Questions: One Last Funky Dollar at the Lobo Theater\nWhat is “One Last Funky Dollar”?\n“One Last Funky Dollar” is a horn-driven funk and soul dance party performed by Albuquerque’s One More Silver Dollar Band. It’s a special variant of the band’s normal Allman Brothers tribute work\, expanded to include the ABQ Horn Section and lead vocalist Colleen Elvidge. \nWho is One More Silver Dollar Band?\nOne More Silver Dollar Band (also known as OMSB or OMSD) is an Albuquerque-based southern rock and blues band primarily dedicated to the music of the Allman Brothers Band and their extended musical family. The band has performed at Fusion\, Marble Brewery\, the Brewhouse\, TumbleRoot\, and other regional venues. More info at omsdband.com. \nHow much do tickets cost?\nGeneral admission tickets are $15\, available in advance via Eventbrite or at the door (subject to availability). The Lobo Theater’s 550-capacity floor means many shows sell out\, so advance tickets are recommended. \nWhat’s the age requirement?\nThis is a 21+ event. The Lobo Theater operates a full bar and serves cocktails throughout the show. \nWhat time should I arrive?\nDoors open at 7:00 PM. Music typically starts within the first hour. The party runs until 11:00 PM. \nWhere is The Historic Lobo Theater?\nThe Lobo Theater is at 3013 Central Ave NE in Albuquerque’s Nob Hill neighborhood\, on historic Route 66. There’s plenty of street parking\, multiple Nob Hill restaurants and bars within walking distance\, and the venue is on the Albuquerque Rapid Transit (ART) Central Avenue line.

Two bands\, one building\, one Friday. \nThis is a casual lounge set followed by a ticketed theater show. Walk in for Kaleidoscope at the Lobo Lounge. Grab a drink at the full bar. Stay for the funk. \nThe Friday June 26 flow: lounge first\, theater after\nTwo acts\, two rooms\, one walkable building. Kaleidoscope at the Lobo Lounge wraps at 8:00 PM. The One Last Funky Dollar set in the theater room runs through the rest of the evening. Step out of the lounge\, walk twenty feet\, walk into the theater. That is the entire transition. Ticket info for the theater show lives on the One Last Funky Dollar event page. Lounge cover for Kaleidoscope is TBA. \nAbout Kaleidoscope: Albuquerque four-piece cover band\nKaleidoscope is an Albuquerque-based four-piece interpretive cover band. Their signature is multi-layered vocal harmonies and reworked arrangements that pull from a wide catalog. Less paint-by-numbers\, more let-the-song-breathe. Lobo Theater own writeup of the band called it a “fun\, genre-spanning night\,” which is the elevator pitch. \nThis is the second of two Kaleidoscope at the Lobo Lounge dates in 2026\, after their May 15 lounge appearance. Same band\, same room\, different vibe. The May date is a standalone lounge set. The June 26 date is a pre-show kickoff for the theater room. \nAbout One Last Funky Dollar (the theater show after)\nOne Last Funky Dollar is a funky soul dance party. The show in the theater room runs the rest of the evening. If you came for Kaleidoscope at the Lobo Lounge and you are still standing at 8 PM\, the funky soul dance party is right next door. Best ten-foot walk you will take all month. \nWhy the Lobo Lounge works for a Friday pre-show\nThe Lobo Lounge is the front-of-house bar zone at the Historic Lobo Theater on Central Avenue in Nob Hill. Smaller than the theater room. More intimate. Big enough for a four-piece harmonized cover band\, small enough that the room feels packed before you walk into the theater. On a two-show night like June 26\, this is the pre-game. The pour-yourself-into-the-night spot. The harmonies-on-the-way-to-the-funk room. \nThe building is a 1938 Art Deco landmark on Historic Route 66. The theater room hosts the bigger ticketed shows. The lounge is where the relaxed weekly programming lives. Some Friday nights both rooms are firing. June 26 is one of those nights. \nEvent details at a glance\n\nWhat: Kaleidoscope at the Lobo Lounge\, Albuquerque four-piece cover band\, pre-show set\nWhen: Friday\, June 26\, 2026. 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM in the lounge\nAfter: One Last Funky Dollar in the theater room\, same night\nWhere: The Lobo Lounge at the Historic Lobo Theater & Event Center\, 3013 Central Ave NE\, Albuquerque\, NM 87106\nCover: Lounge TBA.

SUMMARY:Paul Pino and the Tone Daddies Live at the Lobo Theater (Friday\, May 22)
DESCRIPTION:Paul Pino and the Tone Daddies live at the Lobo Theater\, Friday May 22\nPaul Pino and the Tone Daddies live at the Historic Lobo Theater on Friday\, May 22\, 2026. Doors at 7:00 PM\, music at 8:00 PM. The Tone Daddies are\, in the words of KUNM Espejos de Aztlán\, “a New Mexico institution\,” and Paul Pino himself a “New Mexico treasure.” Saturday-night sized show\, big-stage room\, original songs about this state and the people in it. \nThis is a ticketed theater show. Cover and ticketing details are TBA. Body copy on this page will update as soon as pricing is locked. \nAbout Paul Pino and the Tone Daddies\nPaul Pino and the Tone Daddies are a Sandia Park\, New Mexico based band built around Paul Pino’s original songwriting. The catalog is wide on purpose. Spanish-language rancheras and cumbias\, English-language country and blues\, rock and roll\, folk\, the occasional reggae cut\, and a long list of originals about New Mexico history\, landscape\, and culture. \nPaul was raised on a ranch near Carrizozo\, New Mexico. The bio his band publishes paints the picture: a kid at the top of a windmill at sundown\, transistor radio pulling KOMA Oklahoma City and stations from northern Mexico. Spanish poetry read out loud at the kitchen table. Stillness. Coyotes. Wind through barbed wire. Decades later that ranch is still the source water for the songs. \nPaul is also a chronicler of the New Mexico landscape\, in part related to his history as a Tularosa Downwinder. The KUNM Espejos de Aztlán feature framed it that way and we will let that framing stand. The songs do the rest of the talking. \nWhat you will hear: rancheras\, blues\, country\, and originals about New Mexico\nRoughly thirty Paul Pino originals have been played on New Mexico radio stations. “Toca Me Una Ranchera” hit number one on ReverbNation in the Indie category and top ten on KANW 89.1 FM. Four originals appear on “Best of KANW” compilations. “Las Estrellas De Nuevo Mexico” has served as the theme song for two different New Mexico radio programs. Other tracks worth knowing before the show: “Pasame La Botella\,” “Estrellitas\,” “Desert Paradise\,” “There Must Be Angels\,” “Dusty River\,” “Lawyer Blues\,” and “Too Old To Die Young.” \nThe live set pulls across that catalog plus New Mexico standards and well-chosen covers. The band call it Southwestern Folk Music inspired by life on the ranch in Carrizozo. You can call it whatever you want once you hear it. \nMeet the band\n\nPaul Pino: lead vocals\, rhythm guitar\, songwriting. Lifelong songwriter and singer. Carrizozo native.\nSmooth Mike Layden: lead guitar\, keyboards\, banjo\, vocals. Raised in Santa Fe\, two tours of duty in Vietnam\, 55 years on lead guitar. Toured with Junior Brown.\nMC Mike Campos: bass and vocals.\nSmiling Johnny Arater: drums\, vocals\, DJ. Toured with The High Chaparral Band. Has played the Kimo Theatre\, the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta\, and the New Mexico State Fair. Drumming influences include Steve Gadd\, Paul Riddle\, Gene Cropper\, and Buddy Rich.\n\nWhy Lobo Theater for Paul Pino and the Tone Daddies\nThe Historic Lobo Theater is a 1938 Art Deco room on Historic Route 66 in Nob Hill\, Albuquerque’s premier live music venue. 550 capacity. Big stage. Full bar. ADA accessible. The room is the right scale for a band whose set moves between a Spanish-language ranchera and a country shuffle and an electric blues tune without losing the audience between songs. The acoustics let the harmonies and the storytelling actually land. \nNob Hill on a Friday night does the rest. Park on Central or one of the side streets\, pop into the Lobo\, plan to stay late. \nEvent details at a glance\n\nWhat: Paul Pino and the Tone Daddies\, Southwestern folk and original songs about New Mexico\nWhen: Friday\, May 22\, 2026.

SUMMARY:Kaleidoscope Live at the Lobo Lounge (Friday\, May 15)
DESCRIPTION:Kaleidoscope live at the Lobo Lounge: Friday night\, May 15\nKaleidoscope live at the Lobo Lounge on Friday\, May 15\, 2026\, 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM. The Albuquerque four-piece cover band brings their vocal-harmony-driven\, genre-spanning sets to the Lobo Lounge for an early-evening set built for slowing the week down. \nThis is a casual lounge set\, not a ticketed theater show. Walk in\, grab a drink at the full bar\, settle in. Kaleidoscope reputation is for thoughtful arrangements and tasty jams\, not greatest-hits karaoke. If you have caught them around town\, you know what that means. If you have not\, this is a low-pressure Friday to find out. \nAbout Kaleidoscope: Albuquerque four-piece cover band\nKaleidoscope is an Albuquerque-based four-piece interpretive cover band. Their signature is multi-layered vocal harmonies and reworked arrangements that pull from a wide catalog. Less paint-by-numbers\, more let-the-song-breathe. Lobo Theater own writeup called the band a “fun\, genre-spanning night\,” which lands about right. \nWhat to expect from a Kaleidoscope set\nTwo hours. Multiple genres. Songs you know reworked through three- and four-part harmonies\, with room for the band to stretch out and play. The band leans interpretive\, which is industry shorthand for: do not expect a faithful Top 40 rendition. Expect a song you have heard a hundred times to land differently. That is the appeal. \nThe Lobo Lounge sound is dialed for this kind of group. Vocal mics carry. The room is small enough that harmonies actually hit. Big enough that you can find a corner if you want to talk over the set instead of standing front-and-center. \nWhy the Lobo Lounge for Kaleidoscope live music\nThe Lobo Lounge is the front-of-house bar zone at the Historic Lobo Theater on Central Avenue in Nob Hill. Smaller than the theater room next door. More intimate. The right scale for an interpretive cover band working through harmonies. Full bar. Quality sound. ADA accessible. Plenty of street parking on Central. \nThe Historic Lobo Theater is a 1938 Art Deco landmark on Historic Route 66. The theater room hosts the bigger ticketed shows. The lounge is where the relaxed weekly programming lives. Two rooms\, one building. On nights when both are running\, the building is a one-stop weekend destination. \nEvent details at a glance\n\nWhat: Kaleidoscope live at the Lobo Lounge\, Albuquerque interpretive cover band\nWhen: Friday\, May 15\, 2026. 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM\nWhere: The Lobo Lounge at the Historic Lobo Theater & Event Center\, 3013 Central Ave NE\, Albuquerque\, NM 87106\nCover: TBA. Check back for updates.\nAges: All ages welcome with a paying adult\nParking: Street parking on Central Ave and side streets in Nob Hill\nAmenities: Full bar\, ADA accessible\n\nCatch Kaleidoscope at the Lobo Lounge again on June 26\nIf you miss this Friday\, Kaleidoscope is back at the Lobo Lounge on Friday\, June 26\, 2026\, same 6 to 8 PM lounge slot. That night their set serves as the kickoff to the One Last Funky Dollar show in the theater. Two-room night\, one venue. Lounge first\, theater after. \nFollow Kaleidoscope\n\nFacebook: Kaleidoscope group on Facebook\n\nSee all upcoming shows at The Lobo
