Get Out
Did you miss the Stones last week? Good. You’ve got $600 extra in your pocket and now you can see a few truly classic rock bands. First, since you missed the Stones you head to the Fonda on Thursday for Stones Fest. This is one of three fests (Petty, Dylan, Stones) that are being organized […]
Music Collaboration
John Fogerty just released an album “Wrote a Song For Everyone” comprised solely of past Creedence Clearwater Revival and solo songs. The hook is he’s collaborating with a different artist for each song of that artist’s choosing. i.e. Foo Fighters performing “Fortunate Son” and Dawes performing “Someday Never Comes” I’m not sure if it means anything […]

New Music Tuesday
Laura Marling has released a gem. She’s only been making records since 2008 and each one has been more impressive than the next but her fourth album “Once I Was An Eagle” has her sounding self-assured, angry and yet, still vulnerable. Laura mentions in a Spin Magazine interview that “I’d been traveling a lot and listening to […]
The Final Countdown
It’s a top 10 song from 1987. It was in the movie Rocky IV (for Rocky’s training montage). It was recorded by the Swedish band Europe. But for many of us, it will always belong to Gob Bluth, from Arrested Development. I’m probably watching a new episode right now but in the meantime, please enjoy some […]

Get Out
I think of a better way to spend a part of your 3 day weekend at The Hollywood Bowl with Fleetwood Mac. Sure, it’s without Christine McVie so you won’t hear “Over My Head” or “Say You Love Me” or “Little Lies” or “You Make Lovin’ Fun” but they’ll still play “Don’t Stop” (how […]
Rockshow
I got a chance to see the Paul McCartney concert film Rockshow over the weekend and it made me nostalgic. Not for the past, but for the way our rock stars used to approach their shows. First off, what I didn’t realize was that McCartney approached this show from 1976 as a truly band project. […]
