On this week’s Californication, Becca volunteered to say grace at dinner, and as soon as that happened, you knew it was going to be interesting. I’ve talked about this elsewhere, but Becca’s character is SO awesome – I think young Madeleine Martin has a long acting career ahead of her. So many great lines in […]

Blue Rodeo announce Blue Road CD/DVD preorder details – Release date set for October 28th
In early September, I was excited to hear that Blue Rodeo had a live CD and DVD release in the works. My excitement faded when I found out that only part of the show – a ten track acoustic set – would be released. This week, specific track listing details were announced for the Blue […]

Put your 90s sunglasses on and rock out some more……
You had me at “100 %.” This post goes out to Mel, Jose, Kelly, Brian and his broken headphones, and all of my friends that I had so much fun with in the 90s! Description: My good friend Mr. Ducker isn’t a DJ, but he always wanted to make an ultimate ’90s tape, something that […]
Good Listening: Del Amitri @ Slim’s, San Francisco, CA – 4/30/95

Vintage Sounds: Jackson Browne and David Lindley – March 1st, 1974
You know, I sympathize with Ringo Starr just a little bit. I can’t even begin to imagine the amount of mail that a Beatle receives. Actually, I think I can visualize it though – the word “voluminous” comes to mind. I get a decent amount of site-related email, and a good percentage lately of that […]
The Beachland Ballroom launches a blog
I was surfing tonight, and discovered via I Rock Cleveland, that the previously discussed lineup for the Halloween show at the Beachland Ballroom has been expanded slightly. Sadly, it looks like Devil Moto’s CCR tribute is off the bill. People keep telling me that I need to see Devil Moto, and I guess that once […]
Setlist: Tesla – House of Blues Cleveland 10/15/08
While others were busy watching the debate, I was at the House of Blues, debating how much Tesla was ROCKING! Answer: They rocked the rock-o-meter quite nicely. After enjoying the recent live Tesla live DVD, this was my first time officially seeing Tesla with newish guitar player Dave Rude in the fold. It was also […]

Dan’s Classic Rock FM blog, a regular stop in my browsing travels, led me to the following Springsteen item today, which comes from my radio friend Jay Philpott. Jay shared the following Springsteen story and audio in a recent blog entry: Here’s a very revealing story about what a great guy Bruce is, and to […]
