got live if you want it…
a tip of the hat to Gregor @ captains dead for the MP3s of a classic Rolling Stones bootleg. At the above link, there is a great link to the story behind the recording of one of the most classic bootlegs in the history of bootlegging! If you’re not familiar with Live’r Than You’ll Ever […]
Thank you for listening to our songs, we’d do it for free, I swear to God….
Okay, guilty pleasure time – here’s one of many bands that fall into that category for me. This one’s for Mel, who just wrote a great memory-jogging post about 10 of her favorite concerts. One of those concerts, was a 1997 Grog Shop appearance from Matchbox 20, who were in the midst of finally breaking […]
Good Listening: Pearl Jam – Tivoli: Utrecht, Holland – 3/4/92
Seventeen years ago today, Pearl Jam released their debut album Ten. As of 2003, the album has been certified twelve times platinum in the United States, and remains the band’s best selling album. So you might find it hard to believe that the album wasn’t an immediate success, and took nearly a year to reach […]
Okay one more thing…
Thanks to the good Captain over at Captain’s Dead for this: A Living Colour cover of Tracy Chapman’s “Talkin’ Bout A Revolution,” who knew? Hear it for yourself.
Good Listening: Gov’t Mule and Dave Matthews Band
This is part two of promised posts to “rock your weekend.” I had to pull the Black Keys post that was up earlier offline (hopefully temporarily.) So we’ll skip ahead to the second planned post. It was practically Jam Band Week here in Cleveland – The Black Crowes were at the House of Blues for […]

To celebrate the launch of LiveCountingCrows.Com, the band are offering a free download (for the first 10,000 fans) of their Charlotte, NC concert, recorded […]

1980s-era Chrissie Hynde would kick 2008 Chrissie Hynde’s ass if she heard this song. From the new Pretenders album Break Up The Concrete, in stores on September 23rd. Check out a free MP3 from the album via the official website.
Good Listening: Del Amitri Live Rarities
A drunk, an atheist and a poet walk into a bar. They’re all the same guy, and there is no punchline. Welcome to Del Amitri! And so begins the long overdue Popdose Guide to Del Amitri, written by David Eastman. I’ve had a Del Amitri post brewing since a stray mention caught the attention of […]

In these digital times, things move quickly and before you know it, your favorite band has a new CD due for release.
