Edward Sharpe: Tunnel Vision

Edward Sharpe: Tunnel Vision on Nowness.com. “LA-based folk-rock outfit Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros form a tribal dance circle around a 15-foot-tall illuminated wicker man in today’s film” Uh-oh. This is just the kind of thing I was worrying about.  I have already shared my love for ESATMZ in the blog in the past. [...]

Blackcab Sessions provide reasons to be stuck in traffic

Better than NYC’s Cash Cab? Maybe not as lucrative, but most certainly an intimate gig, tailor made for Internet viewing. The Black Cab Sessions. Cameraman, soundman and artist (or bits of a band) hail a London taxi – often on the way to, or from, a gig. With the permission of the driver, a mini [...]

Led Zeppelin Reunites!… And I Die a Little Inside.

Led Zeppelin played their 1st full show in 18 years last night. I was sooo not there. For the record should they decide to tour I will do/pay whatever the cost to attend a show. Because really, if that was not worth it, what would be? Exactly. Here is the set list from the show: [...]

      Do You Remember Rock & Roll?

      If not, let the Alabama Shakes remind you. They’re selling out shows across the country and their debut album isn’t even out for another couple months. I managed to see these blues-infused soul grabbers play a jam packed show at the Indy in San Francisco last night. Best overpriced scalped ticket I ever bought! Don’t [...]

      Love Letter from the West Coast

      Oh, hey there, East Coast! Looks like you had a bit of an earthquake, huh? Don’t worry, I’m not gonna razz you about it. You’re ill-equipped for the tremors. A big quake would be way more catastrophic there than it would be here. You’re right to be a little jumpy about it. Well, I’m no [...]

      Did You Hear That: Adele “21″ a brief review

      From the first beat of “Rolling in the Deep,” the first track on Adele’s new album, “21”, it is clear that even at such a young age (all of 22 now), singer/songwriter Adele continues to be a force stronger than she may know. As “21” dips into the style of the country South with a [...]

      So Sayeth Pam: The Raveonettes “Forget That You’re Young”

      I like a young American band that makes vintage-sounding reverbalicious melodies. Specifically if those bands are Crystal Stilts, Vivian Girls or Dum Dum Girls. Call me a nationalist but I just happen to prefer their take on fuzz pop to that of their Danish predecessors, the Raveonettes. Which is not to say I dislike the [...]
