Goose descended on Saratoga Springs, NY, for a two-night stand at the Saratoga Performing Arts Center, which is surrounded by lush greenery and a sprawling state park that includes hot springs. The band was sufficiently warmed up after playing in Holmdel, NJ, and Boston, MA, earlier in the week. The Connecticut-based indie groove quintet certainly crushed night one with several rarely played covers and an original, all within their home stomping grounds.

The days are getting shorter, and the weather is cooling down. This can mean only one thing: both football season and fall tour are about to begin. Goose, the indie-groove jam rock band from Connecticut that has solidified itself as a heavy hitter in the music industry, kicked off its Fall Tour at PNC Bank Arts Center in Holmdel, NJ, on September 1st, 2024. This Labor Day show had all the feels, including two new song debuts and a rare three-song second set.

Goose's three night run at Boston's MGM Music Hall at Fenway was a spectacle, as the band kicked off September with back-to-back displays of musical mastery and sonic innovation. Over the course of three electrifying nights, the band delivered a trio of performances that showcased not only their impressive catalog but also their boundless creativity and improvisational flair.

Goose closed out another exhilarating summer tour last Sunday, June 30, 2024, at the Westville Music Bowl in New Haven, CT. This was their fifth performance, and perhaps their best, at one of the finest places in the Northeast to see live music outdoors. The band was reeling from a raging show in front of their largest crowd to date the prior night in Forest Hills, and this only synergized with the hometown venue excitement.

The old saying "records are made to be broken" fortifies the notion that any achievement, no matter how great, can be exceeded. That is exactly what Goose did in terms of ticket sales at Forest Hills Stadium in Forest Hills, NY, on June 29, 2024, their relative home turf.
