Get Out
This week instead of music how about some spoken word action, both comedic and tragic? First we get the silly with the KROQ April Foolishiness. Here are a few classic bits from the lineup. Remember, this is comedy so it’s mostly NSFW! Tenacious D Iliza Shlesinger Jay Mohr tells the best Tracy Morgan story After […]

Rock Stars doing the weather forecast
Now that February is over, hopefully there will be a reprieve of the amount of insane weather the east coast has faced so far this winter. In any case, I just heard a clip of Ed Sheeran doing the weather and it occurred to me that he has not been the first rock star to […]

Get Out
Bob Dylan comes to town for three nights at the Dolby Theatre. Tenacious D’s curated comedy cavalcade Festival Supreme comes to The Shrine on Saturday. In honor of both events I give you some of funnyman Bob Dylan’s quotes and lyrics. “I almost didn’t make it tonight. Had a flat tire. There was a fork in the […]
Get Out
There’s a couple unique happenings occurring in Los Angeles that both sound promising. Edward Sharpe’s Big Top promises “An Eclectic Mix of Artists, Performers, A Public Farmer’s Market, Late Night Happenings & More!” This will all occur in the round “under a traditional big top” at the Los Angeles State Historic Park. This could be […]

New Music Tuesday (Black Friday edition)
Record Store Day has expanded to nobody’s favorite day to shop. This Black Friday you can pick up some fun discs to collect and/or sell on eBay. Here are a few of my favorites: Live From The Newport Folk Festival – Tribute to The Band/Levon Helm with Bethany Howard from […]
Tribute Albums
I wish all tribute albums were as brilliant as the songs they covered but that’s rarely the case and as the saying goes, “if wishes and buts were clusters of nuts we’d all have a bowl of granola“. Just Tell Me That You Want Me – Tribute To Fleetwood Mac comes out Tuesday and while the […]

Two future great summer records to play in the next few months and two comeback records highlight this week’s releases. Best Coast are the The Beach Boys and Katy Perry and The Go-Go’s all rolled up in one delicious package. Their last record entitiled “Crazy For You” took on the best of Darlene Love and […]
One Year Anniversary
Yes, it’s hard to believe but I’ve been doing this 5 days a week for the past 52 weeks. That’s 260 posts people! Who do you think I’ve mentioned the most in my posts? Anyone that knows anything about me won’t be surprised that Bruce Springsteen was featured 11 times in my posts beating […]

White and Black (with Gass)
Two things made me smile this past week. First, was the distribution method of Jack White’s new single, Freedom at 21 The second was the return of Jack Black and Kyle Gass aka Tenacious D with this brilliant PR piece. Here’s the first single (all glorious 5:56) of “Rize Of The Fenix” I hope it […]
