Going home + things to see and do
I’m on my way out of town to clear my head, and I’ll be remembering an old friend as I travel across the miles, while listening to some of my favorite music turned up nice and loud. The ultimate tribute in my book, from one music lover to another. I’m going home this weekend to […]
More BC – A Look At The Art Process
Former Buzzard artist Brian Chalmers had one of the most brilliantly creative minds I’ve ever known. In any person, that trait combined with a love for music means that we’re going to be friends for life. In 2002, I graduated and moved on from WMMS to a new job and plenty of new projects. This […]

One item that caught my eye in particular was a WMMS “Buzzard Next Generation” […]
Cage Match: Jon vs. John

The subject matter of Jon Bon Jovi (and his rock band conveniently named Bon Jovi) and John Cougar, John Cougar Mellencamp, and John Mellencamp (take your pick depending on the year) was […]
Quick Hits – Pearl Jam, Jay Bennett, Dave Brubeck, Cheap Trick + more
Hey kids, I can’t believe it, but Bonnaroo departure time is less than a week away for yours truly. I’ll be making the trip with Brian, new roommate Adam, and well, that’s it. It will be just us, a car full of stuff, and heads that will soon be filled with memories. Cheesy I know, […]
