Concert Review – Buddy Guy at House of Blues, Cleveland
went to see Buddy Guy on Tuesday night at the House of Blues. This was (I think) at least my fifth time seeing Buddy, following shows in 1993 at the Blues Music Festival at Blossom Music Center with my comrade Jim, a show later in the 90s at the Agora with my comrade Mark. Mark […]

Jackson Browne, a random note on Matthew Sweet, and a music lesson from Bruce Hornsby
So I get a call from my dad while I am at the radio station yesterday, asking me if I would have time to bring some stereo equipment out his way. I drove out, dropped off the stereo equipment, and we set out to grab a bit of late lunch. I had Jackson Browne’s Solo […]
