The Harp Twins

A few years ago I stumbled upon a bunch of guys doing metal with cellos.  It sounded strange, but it grew on me pretty quick.  It didn’t hurt anything that they re-did one of my all-time favorite songs. Two smoking-hot twin babes doing harps? That might not ever grow on me.

Best Gonzo tune?

Best Gonzo tune? Public OpinionPoll Results I’m definitely partial to Great White Buffalo. Have been for a long, long, time.

Meet Me at The Y

Y.M.C.A. has decided they need a name change.  Forever immortalized by one of the hokiest dance hits of the last fifty years, they decided people didn’t understand what YMCA stood for.  I think they had another problem.  A bunch of gay men singing about meeting at the “Young Men’s Christian Association” had some connotations to it.  A name change was… (more…)

How Soon Is Now

Just because it needs to be here.

Seven Nation Army

Just because I feel like it:

Heart and Journey

Got a couple of pics from the weekend:     Cool huh?  Yeah, I know, a little distant.  Tickets were kinda hard to come by.  At first I was perplexed.  I mean, Heart and Journey kinda peaked a long time ago.  But, once Heart kicked in, it made sense.  This was one of the better shows I’ve been to in… (more…)

Black Eyed Peas celebrate the most versatile word in the universe

Mike Farris & The Roseland Rhythm Review

This is a rarity, a two bagger of bands I enjoyed hearing for the first time.  I pitied the band following The Felice Brothers.  People at the Master Musicians Festival generally reward creative bands.  We generally tend to sit content for good bands that aren’t.  This was a two-stage set-up.  The other band was meandering around the stage while The… (more…)

The Felice Brothers

Lately it seems I’ve been complaining a lot about modern performers.  I’m not even going to use the term musicians.  Too many bands don’t make any effort to be original.  They stick with the same instruments, some not at all.  They have degrading lyrics, a bad message if any, and make no attempt whatsoever to make their music, product, unique. … (more…)

The rock of my life

Another quick shot post.  Name the song my misunderstood lyric came from: I can’t find, oh, the rock of my life It came from a ballad about a guy who’s apparently made a pass at someone else, and it’s not working too well.  At the time, the song was great musically, but meaningless pretty much lyrically.  Then it clicked and… (more…)
