After a successful return of Milwaukee Metal Festival in 2023, the iconic midwestern, multi-day event will kick off with a pre-party on May 16 while the main festival will run May 17 – 19 at The Rave/Eagles Club in Milwaukee, WI. The event promises to have more food, vendors, live podcasts and other surprises!

The festival returned to prominence in 2023 under the watchful eye of Hatebreed frontman and podcaster Jamey Jasta and Sound Talent Group‘s Tim Borror, as well as the team at The Rave / Eagles Club, where so many of the original festivals took place.

The Indiana Pacers host the Milwaukee Bucks for Game 3 of their first-round playoff series tonight. It’s the first postseason game in Indianapolis since the 2019 playoffs — Indiana played a series in the NBA bubble in 2020 and hasn’t been a postseason squad since.

Now, they return home to their fans in a best-of-seven set for the first time in a half decade. The players are all excited about the opportunity, especially after splitting the first two games of the series in Milwaukee. It’s a key outing with the set knotted up and Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo doubtful to play.

“There are endless cautionary tales about the road team winning Game 2 and coming home and not being able to respond the right way,” Pacers head coach Rick Carlisle said of his team after they practiced on Thursday. He’s hoping the blue and gold look crisp again tonight.

Viewing and Betting Information

Tip off time: 5:30 p.m. Eastern Time

Location: Gainbridge Fieldhouse, Indianapolis, Indiana

Where to watch: NBA League Pass, Bally Sports Indiana, Bally Sports+, Bally Sports Wisconsin, ESPN

Spread and Over/Under: The Pacers are favorites as they are currently -5.5 in the SI Sportsbook. The over/under for the game is 221.5.

Pacers vs Bucks Injury Report

The Pacers listed Bennedict Mathurin (torn labrum) as out.

The Bucks listed Giannis Antetokounmpo as doubtful due to his left calf strain. Chris Livingston (non-COVID illness) is doubtful and Khris Middleton (right ankle sprain) is questionable.

Key Matchup

Myles Turner vs Brook Lopez: In Game 2 of the series, both Lopez and Turner upped their level of play. Lopez was red hot early, raining in threes and creating space on the floor for his teammates. His defense has always been terrific. Turner, meanwhile, bounced back and was more efficient while also rebounding and passing at a high level.

Both bigs finished with 22 points and were better than they looked in Game 1. If one of the two starting centers can clearly outplay the other one tonight, it will go far in deciding the game. Turner was the superior five in Game 2, the only win for Indiana in the series to date.

MILWAUKEE – A Milwaukee man convicted of shooting his neighbor over money in 2023 has been sentenced to 12 years in prison.

Kenneth Burrows, 34, pleaded guilty in March to second-degree reckless homicide. Court records show, in addition to prison time, he was sentenced on Thursday to eight years of extended supervision. 

The victim, 31-year-old Victor Gillespie, was shot near 25th and Congress on Feb. 20, 2023. According to a criminal complaint, he was found at the top of the staircase leading to the second floor of his home with an apparent gunshot wound to the chest.

Gillespie’s feet were in the entryway to a bathroom, per the complaint, where police found one bullet casing in the bathtub. On the second floor, one of the bedroom doors appeared to have been forced open.

The complaint states a witness said she was at Gillespie’s home that night when Burrows, who lived next door, showed up and demanded money that Gillespie owed him. Gillespie said he would pay him “tomorrow.” The witness said she stayed downstairs in the kitchen while the men went upstairs. According to prosecutors, she said she heard stomping, followed by a gunshot, and something then hit the floor.

Burrows then came downstairs and told the witness she should call an ambulance, the complaint said. She told police he had a gun in his hand. Her phone was upstairs, so she went to get it, and the complaint said she told police she heard Gillespie take his last breath.
