Good Listening: Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers in Los Angeles, June ’13
When it comes to live stuff from Tom Petty, there’s certainly a good amount of officially available material to choose from. The Live Anthology in particular should be at the top of your list if you don’t own it, both for value and because of what’s on it. Going further back, the Pack Up The […]
Setlist: A great night in Akron with The Smithereens, 6/17/11
The Tangier provided an odd, but ultimately satisfying venue to watch the Smithereens play their first Cleveland area gig in quite a while. What was the last one? Was it the gig at the Rock Hall, playing as the headliner on an afternoon of band battles hosted by Guitar Center? Or was it their summertime […]
The Smithereens – Sorry
By now, hopefully you’ve managed to obtain your very own copy of the excellent new Don Dixon-produced Smithereens release 2011. I’ve been keeping uncharacteristically mum regarding my thoughts on the album, because I’m working on an interview to dig deep into the 2011 album via conversations with the band. But that won’t stop me from […]
News From The Wild: Smithereens, Damnwells, vinyl and delusional bloggers
I read with amusement yesterday the tale of bloggers that are hanging it up because the visions of fame, book deals and company cars never came around. I thought it was interesting on a couple of levels – 1) the fact that somebody actually took the time to track down enough of these people to […]

Hopefully it isn’t too early to start thinking about the weekend on a Monday, but if it is indeed too early, I guess that’s too bad! Scotch Plains, NJ, will be the destination for this weekend with tickets in hand for THIS show. Color me stoked. I’m looking forward to my first Smithereens show in […]
Road trip for Smithereens/Pat DiNizio fans?
I’ve heard good things about The Smith Bros, and can you pass up the chance to see Smithereens frontman Pat DiNizio with The Smith Bros as his backing band for $5 on a Thursday night near Columbus? More importantly, can I pass up that chance? The Smith Bros are hosting “Rock on the Road” presented […]
So what do you collect…..and other complicated questions
Tuesday afternoon, I happened to check the ATV email account and found an email that sent my personal geek-out meter soaring sky high, and if I lived in a Looney Tunes cartoon world, I’m pretty sure that the meter would have snapped right off. I had an interview request from a media outlet that you […]

I’m going to save you some money with this week’s pick for show of the week – let me just put that out there front and center for you to ponder for a moment. Part of the proceeds from this week’s show also go to benefit a very good cause – more on all of […]
