Mark it down – I’m pointing you all towards something from The Plain Dealer that is not authored by John Soeder. That’s right folks, it happens on rare occasion. Speaking of that, one of these days, I’m going to ask John if “Soeder” is pronounced in such a way that rhymes with Loder….as in Kurt […]

Tonight’s events are being presented in Living Stereo
You know those days/nights where you’re about to go out of town, and you have about 10 million things to get done? That was my day yesterday, as I was preparing to go to Baltimore for Virgin Festival 2008 (more on that, in a bit.) I had to take care of regular work obligations, additional […]
The 2008 Vinyl Awards
Today is a very proud date that has been notched into the young Addicted to Vinyl timeline. The great Mel from Life, Liberty, & Pursuit of Your Boyfriend has given me an award as one of her seven favorite bloggers. There are a couple of connecting factors tied in with the award, one of which […]
Sometimes I get a little bit crazy……
….but then lately, there are moments in public transportation that remind me that I’m really quite normal by comparison. Today’s example: It makes perfectly good sense to get on the train wearing an extremely heavy winter coat with your hood on, and snow pants. Did I mention that today’s temp in Cleveland was about 90 […]
Blog Love: Life, Liberty, & Pursuit of Your Boyfriend
As a stats geek, I’m constantly looking at the site stats to gauge the overall popularity of the topics that I’m writing about here at Addicted to Vinyl. Additionally, I look at the stats that detail who is visiting Addicted to Vinyl, and how they are finding my site. It’s always a thrill to find […]
Quick Hits – Judas Priest, Summertime, Kanye West
Another busy week in the can, thank goodness! First, a rock and roll recap from the week that was…. I saw quite a bit of live music this week, including: The New Frontiers / Below Jupiter / Liza Bundy at the Beachland Tavern on Monday night (recap here.) Wednesday night, I saw what was (believe […]
The musical public transportation of life
Good morning from Cleveland! Last night, I was at home working in the flowerbeds as rain began to fall. It was a steady rain, but nothing heavy to the point where I would seek shelter. That part came later, and for the moment I was planting flowers that are either going to bloom fantastically, or […]
An evening with James Taylor and Mom
Tuesday night, I was at Blossom Music Center here in Cleveland for James Taylor and his Band of Legends. The weather was the complete opposite of Saturday’s picture perfect weather that I experienced for Clapton at the same venue. Tuesday night’s weather featured rain and a bit of a nighttime chill to round things out. […]
New Kids On The…Arena Schedule?
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 were promoting the […]
Quick Hits – One Hit Wonders, Pirate Radio, and Mix Tapes
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 […]
