Every now and then, someone will leave a comment here that for one reason or another, fails to post in the comments of the actual post. A gent named “Mark” left a comment on my post of Bruce Springsteen’s classic Agora show, which as you can imagine remains as one of the most popular posts […]

Good Listening: Foo Fighters in Cologne – February ’11
One of the great things about the Foo Fighters is that they tend to do quite a few radio broadcasts throughout the cycle of promoting a new album. 90 minutes to two hours worth of Foos favorites mixed with whatever new album they happen to be promoting at the time is always a good recipe […]
Good Listening: Christmas with Chicago
I need better connections in Youngstown (that’s in Ohio, for those of you that are either unfamiliar with the Springsteen song of the same name or living in one of the other states not named Ohio). In the past few weeks, I’ve missed concerts from both Eddie Money and Bryan Adams in the Youngstown area. […]
Good Listening: A Show for Everyman
As summer winds down, the opportunity to enjoy a great outdoor concert becomes more elusive with each passing day. As a public service, I bring to you this concert flashback of the great Jackson Browne who happens to be appearing at the Time Warner Cable Amphitheater in Cleveland on Sunday, September 19 accompanied by longtime […]
Good Listening: Bruce Hornsby & The Roanoke Symphony in Salem, 10/9/97
Before I developed my appreciation for the music of the Grateful Dead, I found it hard to understand the tape collectors with hundreds to thousands of hours of Grateful Dead shows. You’d hear them talking about that one version of “Dark Star,” recorded on that one night in Albany. (I’m still fascinated by Grayfolded, the […]
Good Listening: Crowded House at the Mermaid Theatre, May 2010
Intriguer is the name of the new album from Crowded House, coming out on July 13th via Fantasy/Rounder. You can pre-order the album now from Amazon for only $13.99, and it comes with a free bonus live DVD, which is a pretty awesome deal for the price! The band is already out playing shows in […]
Good Listening: Barenaked Ladies in Toronto, April ’93
A kind soul on Dimeadozen who goes by the moniker of “fuzzpsych” presently is in the process of digitizing his massive cassette collection of live and rare recordings, recorded in the Toronto area during the 80’s and 90’s. It seems that his wife gave him a gentle nudge and suggested that the space currently being […]
More Owsley.
I’d like to share a few additional bits of information that I came across regarding Will Owsley since my initial post yesterday. I forgot that he was “Grammy-nominated” Will Owsley, nominated for a Grammy for his engineering work on the Owsley album. A fund has been set up for donations in Will’s memory – here […]
‘Cause a Cheap Fix is What I Need
Hey gang, this post is for all of you who, like me, had your concert life torn asunder by your personal life and missed the Cowboy Junkies over the weekend. As unforgivable as that statement was for me to type, I immediately appeal to the greater good by providing the ATV community with a cure […]
Good Listening: It’s a Bleedin’ Board for Bon
Greetings music lovers! It’s time for another trip to the Stereo Dictator’s massive musical archives in search of a show of sonic and social significance to the rock and roll community. Today’s installment is in memory of a true rock and roll legend, Ronald Belford Scott, better known as the Problem Child himself, Bon Scott. […]
