Live N' Loud is where we feature rock shows and local bands in Western New York this weekend and beyond. From the big names to the local bands, here's where you should rock this weekend in Western New York.

1. Protest the Hero, '68, Kaonashi at Rec Room on Friday, October 11.

Awesome metal show. Protest the Hero sounds a little like Muse, but heavier and screaming. Should be a great time.

Buy Tickets at RecRoomBuffalo.com

2. Bret Michaels at OLG Stage, Fallsview Casino on Saturday, October 12.

Bret brings his solo tour, Pardi-Gras 2.0, to the OLD Stage in Niagara Falls, Canada. Expect to hear a lot of Poison hits, of course, as well as his solo work.

Buy Tickets at TicketMaster.ca

3. Demon Hunter, War of Ages, Opponent at Rec Room on Sunday, October 13

A little Christian metal for those into that. Demon Hunter has a great sound for those who love heavy rock.

Live 'N Loud LOCAL

Finally, we always try and feature a local band with Live 'N Loud and this week's band is:

The Midnight Feature

They have a single out called “Phantom Fever” from their self-titled EP, which was released earlier this year.

Take a listen:

You can see The Midnight Feature on Saturday, October 12, for a Halloween Warmup Party at Mr. Goodbar. Just $6 at the door, and there is a costume contest!
