Friday night in Cleveland: Chris Allen + Don Dixon at the Happy Dog = Fun
For the pending 4th of July holiday weekend meltdown, Scene Magazine has the crazy idea that checking out Chris Allen and The Guilty Hearts might be a hella ton of fun. Allen is playing two shows that are billed as the “last full band shows of the year” on Friday and Saturday night (7/3 and […]
Record Store Day is HERE
Well folks, here we are. RECORD STORE DAY. I’ll be headed out in a little bit to grab a couple of things, and also will be picking up stuff for Brian, who’s going to unfortunately miss Record Store Day due to work obligations. Seriously, working from 11am-9:30pm puts a serious damper on being able to […]
On Valentine’s Day
This is my first V-Day post, so it’s not quite a tradition yet…but just wait until next year! I’ve got a suspiciously timed dinner with my parents tonight, arranged with an early morning phone call.

Thanksgiving pre-game action to keep your ears busy
My mom asks me what I’m looking forward to about the family Thanksgiving celebration tomorrow. I quickly replied that I was looking forward to arriving at 4pm, and being back home before 6pm. The response on the other end of the phone line as you can probably guess, was silence. Of course I was being […]
