Addicted To Vinyl

Greetings from Cleveland, where we’ve had way too much sunshine and good weather lately. I’m getting a bit concerned.
Here are the things that I dug this week:
Get Converse All-Star kicks featuring The Grateful Dead, Beatles, Doors…..and Kurt Cobain, bullet holes sold separately. I’d love to get my hands on a pair of […]

Mark Knopfler - Back to Tupelo
around the time of ‘clambake’
that old dream’s still rolling on
sometimes there’ll be the feeling
things are going wrong
the morning star is fading

you can still be marlon brando

I must really like this song, because it keeps […]

Now that we’ve got that out of the way, I am definitely excited to see one of my favorite singers pair with one of […]

I remember the time when I came so close to you
Sent me skipping my class and running from school
And I bought you that ring cause I never was cool
What makes me think I could start clean slated
The hardest to learn was the least complicated
Indigo Girls - Least Complicated
Young love. Kathy was the girl that […]

I’m wrapping up the day as the email hits my inbox. New Kids on the Block have confirmed a Cleveland date for October 3rd.
This is the same group that played the Cleveland Agora (cap. 2000) in the mid-90s for a show that I recall hearing was not very well attended. They […]

I caught Filter on Saturday night for a show that will easily land on my concert memories highlight reel for the year. It was great. And despite the fact that I’ve still got a review of last weekend’s Rock on the Range show (which also featured Filter) that is pretty close to being […]

I wrote previously about Kathleen Edwards following her mid-April appearance on David Letterman. And now, I’ve got a treat for you all.
Quality well-recorded live stuff from Canada’s foul mouthed sweetheart isn’t an easy thing to find. In fact, with the exception of some Austin City Limits audio that was pretty far removed from […]
