Keanu Reeves and Dogstar play the Roxy for first LA show in two decades
The letters on the marquee of the Roxy Theatre spelled out “Dogstar” on Tuesday, and if that name seems familiar, well, maybe you were around at the start of this century when the rock band that includes actorThis was not a glitch in the matrix. The last time anyone around here saw Dogstar was exactly 23 years and five days ago at the now-closed Key Club about 300 feet west of the Roxy on the Sunset Strip.ReevesDogstar performs at The Roxy in Los Angeles on Tuesday, July 18, 2023.
And that’s a good thing because whether it was the material or the live setting, the songs played Tuesday felt more alive than the original two albums and one EP that Dogstar released between 1996 and 2000. The old stuff was typically gloomy, sometimes dour alternative rock of the grunge era. “But it sold out right away, and I was like, damn, whatever,” Christine said. “So we came up to the venue to see it, because it’s a really iconic venue.”
Like many in the crowd, Reeves isn’t just an idol for his work on screen. His off-screen persona – humble, earnest, kind, sincere – makes him feel like a real person in ways other stars do not. The Glaswegians, for instance, shared stories about how he took the local bus to the festival venue or how he met members of a local band in a pub and had more questions about them than they did him.
During “Flowers,” Reeves grinned as Domrose nudged him into a rock star pose or two, the pair of them facing off with their instruments for some crunchy hard rock riffing.
