When I think about the early concerts that played an important part in my development as a music fan, there’s one that comes up in conversation quite a bit. My friend David had tickets to see ZZ Top at Richfield Coliseum in February of 1991, a concert that is also notable for featuring the Black […]

Pearl Jam + Bad Religion + Social D = WOW
As many of you know, the legendary Spectrum venue in Philly is going bye-bye after this year. When Springsteen announced four October dates at the Spectrum, my mind immediately started to dream of finally catching a Bruce show at the Spectrum. Unfortunately, with all of my current travel commitments, I don’t think I’ll be making […]
I hear that St. Louis is pretty nice in October….
Today’s tale reveals an upcoming new adventure in which our hero accepts an invitation to attend the Bruce Springsteen concert in St. Louis….
Cleveland Bachelor’s Show of the Week: Autolux
Hello fellow Vinyl Addicts, That Ramona Falls show was a little sparsely populated. Are you paying attention to me? I really wish you would, as Brent Knopf and his touring bandmates put on a heckuva show. Regardless, what’s done is done and we need to move forward. To be honest, our pal Matt is in […]
Cleveland Bachelor’s Show of the Week: Ramona Falls
Editor’s Note: Hello all, I’m sitting here this morning, reading my copy of the Beverly Cleary classic Ramona Quimby, Age 8. My choice of reading material ties into CB’s show of the week pick for this week…..kinda. Actually, not at all – I really just wanted to stop by and apologize for the lateness of […]

Currently on tour with two of his projects, Jambang, and […]
September Live Music Radness
Our ol’ buddy CB drops by with the official September update on everything cool that you need to know about…. Summer is over and mother nature has been doing her duty the last few days reminding us of such, sending a series of quintessential fall afternoons our way lately (which I have adored, by the […]
Cleveland Bachelor’s Show of the Week: The National Buffalo Wing Festival
Greetings fellow avid Addicted to Vinyl followers, Raise your hand if you went to the Cracker show on Friday? Awesome, right? I haven’t been to a show that good in a long time. Killer set-list, though you already know that from reading Matt’s astute show review. At least partly because that show was so awesome, […]
Cleveland Bachelor’s Show of the Week: Cracker and Whiskey Daredevils at the Beachland Ballroom
Ladies and gentleman, does this week bring us a doozy of a rock show or what?!? I will say this: this week’s show of the week might also be my most anticipated show of the year. It might not be a hipster-driven audience (it won’t be), the local indie record store may no longer the […]
No static at The Winchester
Ask me how much I love the music of Donald Fagen and Walter Becker? Now, ask me how many times I’ve missed chances to see Fagen: My first exposure came via The New York Rock and Soul Revue in the early 90s. Missed them a couple of times. I’ve missed the Steely Dan reunion gigs […]
