Bob Seger On Tour! Rejoice!

Right now focused on the West side but hey no complaints from me. This ‘brilliant song writer’ and talented musician is sure to heft himself over to the East eventually to pacify his worshippers. As I have said before I don’t even dislike Seger…

Dead City Lights "Come Alive", Reviewed

From Phoenix Arizona these guys are offering a big sound with some dynamic layers. Vocalist Zac Erfort has the swoon factor that will send the teenage girls woozy and thankfully the strength of guitarist Justin Grubb offer something for the boys in the crowd to relate to

Flogging The Peckhams, Morrissey Rants

I swear I am starting to think he is my long lost brother. As cynical and opinionated as I am only worse (as if possible) because he can go on forever with his logic (which I tend to agree with) and really rip it up.

Rockabye Baby! Rush

To hear “Limelight” done in such a matter makes me not only want to throw the disc but throw the baby out with the bath water. Is someone enjoying this? Perhaps this is a joke-that must be it.

Cher and the LOGO Network

She is a Vegas Goddess with a huge gay following. She’s basically the patron saint of gay men. Sure theres Brittany and Madonna but Cher is second only to Liza Minelli as the drag queens super hero.

Please Don't Pimp Your Ride

Here is the fun thing, as much as I want to smash this kids piece of crap car to smithereens with a bat is as much as I admire the kids music. Without his ghetto swag I would never have discovered Don Omar

Ted Nugent's Open Letter To Joe Biden

So it is with heavy heart that I offer up Ted Nugent’s letter, originally posted in the Washington Post as an open letter to the Vice President. The asshole actually makes sense and although I do hope he crawls under a rock and goes silent forever.

Marianne Faithfull, A Bit Fragile

‘I’ve gone to fashion shows in New York and because I couldn’t bring myself to say, ‘My name is Marianne Faithfull and I have an invitation.’ I’ve actually turned around at the door and left.

The Cribs, "Leather Jacket Love Song". Reviewed

A simple pop tune with a really horrible keyboard. If they would just pull the cord on the Casio it would sound so much more legit. Right now it takes on a semi retro 60s pop sound. Yeah yeah, most of their stuff does but after 10 years can you at least try a new angle?

Cheri Dahl, "High Heels" Reviewed

Lets face it, Cheri wouldn’t be stranded anywhere so this must be a tale of someone she knew or someone she was. If anything shes the girl who would snag the car keys and leave everyone else stranded AND take their high heels. Which is why I like her.

Irving Azoff Quits Live Nation

Keep in mind this is the guy who pretty much made a monopoly out of entertainment ticketing by merging Live Nation with Ticket Master. Brilliant move and well deserved accolade and compensation are warranted

Are you Ready for a Runaways Reunion?

“I can’t get a yes or no out of Joan, so I’ve kind of thrown in the towel. “It’s now or never. I would love it, but for some reason – I don’t know why – it’s Joan’s camp. The ball is in her camp. It’s up to them.”

"The Who: Quadrophenia – Can You See The Real Me?" On BBCA

behind the scene recording scenes and also images of culture that made Quadrophenia the classic it’s become. Footage with multiple screens of world events ranging from WW2 through today, a flashy gif sort of thing. Themes of disillusionment, teen angst and rebellion, plus social issues. This of course delivered by (now) 70 year old deaf men

Lamb Of God, The Blythe Saga Impact

Lamb of God Bassist John Campbell has offered up some insight via Rock Revolt Magazine. Most of us don’t stop to think of the toll it would take on the rest of the band. Their livelihood is at stake as well.

A Day To Remember, "Violence (Enough Is Enough)," Reviewed

Yelling for Peace is most likely the best way to do it. No one listened to the hippies or the punks so hey- lets give these hardcore kids a chance. This generation is bombarded with violence. They’re anesthetized to the drama of it all. Ya seen one head get blow off you’ve seen them all

Mod Sun Hitting The Road, Again

Mod Sun puts on one of the most energetic and engaging shows you will ever see. He does not sing ‘to’ you, he is literally singing with you and if you’re not careful that boy will jump down and hug you or sit on your lap or start a line dance.
