Halloween weekend
With Halloween arriving on a Monday it’s almost like a three-day weekend, except now you have to be a little more clever in how you spike the company punch bowl. Before that day arrives you can do a number of very fun things around town. As I mentioned in yesterday’s post, movies aren’t creepy until […]

Horror Movie Music
What is a horror movie without those high-pitched strings, repeated keyboard refrains or bass notes to heighten the effect that some innocent/guilty/horny teen/adult is going to get his or her unjust/just comeuppance? Click on the photos to here a few of my favorites. Bookmark on Delicious Digg this post Recommend on Facebook share […]
New Music Tuesday
In case you don’t read newspapers, magazines, watch morning shows on television or late shows, cable, listen to the radio or watch videos you may not know that Coldplay has a new album out. All I have to say is “SURPRISE!” With a voice as over the top as the Coldplay publicity machine, the album I’m most […]
Thurston and Kim
I was very sad to hear last week that Thurston Moore and Kim Gordon of Sonic Youth had split up. They were the cool alternative rock couple that seemingly made marriage seem like a great idea. You could make strange music and tour together and later even have a kid and it all seemed to […]
Free Music Friday
The CMJ Music Marathon is going on right now. If you’re unfamiliar, it is when the great unwashed (college radio students) come to New York City and act just like you would expect college-age kids to act when they have been released into the big city. Here’s a tip’ stay away from anyone with a […]
Weekend In LA

Click on the photo of the Davids in the Michael Jackson jackets to go to his estate sale in Hancock Park and enjoy The Mondrian Sessions […]

We Can Get Together
I’m still on my Hold Steady kick and just thinking about History Lesson Part II, the song that mentions other artists in the lyrics. I started thinking that there are so many other songs that mention other artists. Here are some of my favorites. I’ll start with The Hold Steady is they go crazy with […]

Everything that happens once can never happen again…
…But everything that happens twice will surely happen a third time. I found that quote by Paulo Coelho which kind of relates to a number of this week’s music releases. First off is The Smiths Complete which is all eight of their brilliant albums, filled with hurt, pain, awkwardness and misunderstandings. This brilliant English band will thankfully never […]
