Greetings from Memorial Day Weekend in Cleveland, where I saw Filter for the second time in a week, last night at the House of Blues. Friday night, found me at the resurrected Euclid Tavern for young up and comers The Suede Brothers, who are currently making lots of noise here on the Clevo scene.
Here are some of the things that are rocking my world right now.
