Saturday night rolled around, and I found myself itching for some live music. Word on the street was that the Annex band was playing at Maloney's, and I couldn't resist the urge to see them again. I remember the first time I saw these guys years ago in Green Bay—they rocked hard, and I was eager to see if they still had that same energy.

Maloney's is a great spot for live music, especially with their fantastic patio setup. The stage was perfectly lit, with fire tables casting a warm glow and the drinks flowing freely. As I walked in, the weather was perfect—clear skies and a gentle breeze, ideal for a night of rock and roll under the stars.

The Annex did not disappoint. They took the stage with a bang, bringing their signature high energy and powerful sound. The setup was impressive, with lighted speakers and a high-rise for the drummer that gave the whole performance an electrifying edge. The band delivered a show that was both visually and musically great.

Their setlist was a mix of classic rock covers and original songs, each one performed with the kind of passion that makes live music so exhilarating. The lead singer's powerful vocals and the tight coordination of the band members created a sound that was both nostalgic and fresh. It was clear that these guys love what they do, and that love for music radiated through every note they played.

As always, I made sure to capture some of the magic with photos and videos. There’s something about live music that just doesn’t translate through words alone—you need to see the expressions, the lights, and the crowd’s reaction to truly get a feel for the night. Annex reminded me why live music is such a vital part of our social fabric; it brings people together in a way that few other experiences can.

Check out the photos and videos to get a taste of what makes Annex a band to see. Here’s to more nights filled with great music, good friends, and unforgettable memories.
