I used to have time to do things. “Meet up for a lunch? Sure thing, you name the time!” “What band is playing in our area? Well let’s see all of those shows!” “Volunteer for a beach cleanup or a clothing drive? Absolutely. I’ll be the first there and last [...]
INTRODUCING YOU TO BANDS YOU MIGHT NOT KNOW, BUT TOTALLY SHOULD. Ogre You Asshole There's nothing like ending your week with a nice blast of Japanese Indie Rock. Especially when the band has a name as phenomenal as Ogre You Asshole. Now, I've never seen it written with a [...]

INTRODUCING YOU TO BANDS YOU MIGHT NOT KNOW, BUT TOTALLY SHOULD. The Cure Clearly this is not a week where I’m introducing a band you’ve never heard of. After a career spanning 40 years (yup…. 40!, you’re so very very old), they are clearly artists that you have at the [...]
