Top Albums of 2009

Tim — Wed, 23 Dec 2009 16:48:43 +0000

Welcome to the annual “Top Albums of the Year” list. As I expected, 2009 was an amazing year for music. Putting together this list was much harder than I anticipated. There were so many quality albums that did not make the cut and I’m sure I’ll kick myself two months from now for leaving [...]

It’s been pathetically long since I last updated this blog but I have no intentions of letting it die. A new career change among many personal life stuff have kept me insanely busy, but I’m still listening to amazing music all the time. My Top Albums of 2009 list will be posted shortly, so [...]

One of my favorite bands, Counting Crows, are in the midst of one of the summer’s most exciting tours: The Saturday Night Rebel Rockers Traveling Circus & Medicine Show.

The Traveling Circus features Michael Franti & Spearhead, and Augustana along with Counting Crows in a very unique setup. Rather than each band playing their [...]

On May 29, 2009, Pela performed four new songs acoustically at the KEXP studios. Those acoustic gems have now been released for download. Unfortunately, it was one large podcast file which I so graciously cut up into individual tracks for your (and my) listening pleasure. The four songs they played were: “Augustine,” “Strange Days,” [...]

Now you can color with cred! The new Indie Rock Coloring Book is apparently the first ever indie rock coloring book filled with mazes, connect-the-dot games and of course coloring pages.

I have been a huge Wheat fan since I feel in love with their sophomore record Hope and Adams. The band had a [...]

Fleetwood Mac at Madison Square Garden

Tim — Fri, 12 Jun 2009 14:44:01 +0000

There’s really no point in giving a full review of a Fleetwood Mac’s concert Â at Madison Square Garden last night because as amazing as you imagine it would be is only a fraction of how great it actually is. Stevie Nicks, Lindsey Buckingham and Mick Fleetwood are rock royalty and still know how to [...]
