Show of the Week: Music Saves/Square Records Holiday Get Down
Dear ATVians, Happy holiday season. I’m not the world’s biggest holidays fan, but I tell you one thing I do like about the festive time of year: all the killer concerts.

Best music blog? We blush.
Cleveland Scene’s annual Best of Cleveland issue hit the streets yesterday, and we’re honored to have Addicted to Vinyl listed in the critics’ picks under the banner of “Best Music Blog Besides Ours.” If you’ve followed the musical history of REO Speedwagon, you might think that it’s impossible to find critical love in your home […]

Wanted: Bruce Springsteen Record Store Day 7 inch
So check this out. I’m not sure that Cleveland indie retailers realized what a hot item the Bruce Springsteen 7″ Record Store Day single would be. I was one of the first people in the door at Music Saves, made a beeline straight for the S section of their RSD exclusives, and any copies that […]
Record Store Day is TOMORROW!

Ferris from Scene Magazine, Sirius XM personality Dusty Street, and Pale Hollow drummer Nick Perry, for an evening of Q&A with drummer Joe Vitale about his book Backstage Pass. If the goal is to leave ’em wanting more, […]
