So there was this show last night. A benefit show for GHS’s local chapter of Amnesty International, the Packer game was (unfortunately) scheduled to be played at the same time. So they brought TVs in to play the game so people wouldn’t have to miss it. I understand that many people are way more passionate […]
Setlist
So I went to see Jeremy Enigk play almost a year ago. After the show, I snatched a setlist and wanted to post it, but it got lost in the shuffle of daily madness until tonight. Here is the setlist!!!! Jeremy Enigk Setlist See my original posts on the show here and here.
Oh, Henry!
We saw Henry Rollins do his spoken word thing tonight at the Rave. It was amazing! Henry spoke for three hours – if only the Rave had seating that didn’t bruise your tailbone! Let me take you back to the beginning of my Rollins experiences. It was the early ’90’s and MTV still (sometimes – […]
More Old Music
Sweetness is Sophie B. Hawkins singing “Damn I Wish I Was Your Lover”. What an awesome song. Year? 1992. I know, I’m old. And only getting older. Less than 6 months to 30! Rock! It seems that most of Ms. Hawkins’ new music is but a pale shadow in comparison to “Damn I Wish I […]
Old Music
I’m ripping some old music to mp3 for the purpose of portability . . . I’m coming across some interesting stuff. I totally forgot about Fifteen and Fenix TX. Fifteen, good. Fenix, TX, well – can somebody remind me why we ever listened to this? I wonder what made them think they had a creative […]
Cadillac’s attempt at cool
I was watching tv today and saw an ad with one of my favorite songs from the ’90’s in it. Cadillac has apparently just discovered a band that broke up years ago . . . HUM. They were one of my favorite bands for quite a while, with two albums, “Downward is Heavenward” and “You’d […]
Boo to VH1
Not that VH1 was ever super cool or anything, but they really screwed up this time, I think. They had a countdown on VH1 Classic titled “Women Who Rock”. Needless to say, I expected the word “rock” to mean something here. It seems it only meant what you mean when you tall a friend who […]
Music
Just bought the new A New Found Glory CD yesterday. They have come a long way since they started. They certainly don’t sound like they’re 12 anymore. They don’t exactly sound grown up, yet, either. That’s cool. The new CD is fun. From the Screen to Your Stereo part II contains some very fun covers. […]
Jeremy Enigk – The Missing Link
I am currently listening to The Missing Link. I am sad to say that it’s exactly what I expected. After last year’s The World Waits, I wasn’t expecting to be excited by the music. Neither of these albums even compare to The Return of the Frog Queen. I guess some people reach their creative peaks […]
Radio Peeves
The two major rock stations in Milwaukee, FM102.1, and 102.9 The Hog, both have practices that I find completely disturbing. FM 102.1 is less disturbing to me, for the most part, because they’re not named “The Hog” and they actually play music I like (along with some crap, but less crap than other stations). My […]
