No Spice for The Jubilee
![]()
Is that legal? I mean if you’re a Brit and the Queen summons you, even if it’s a party, aren’t you supposed to go? “Too busy”? I think you can get hung or put in a dudgeon or something for things like that.

No Camera, No Photo Policy At Concerts
![]()
Adams is not allowing any pictures on this tour, not even for professional journalists, and his PR is actually encouraging reviewers to bring along a sketch artist! What? Like in a courtroom? Sorry but I was too far to have produced any good sketch of him, and that would have distracted me

Ides Of Gemini at Vacation Vinyl on Monday February 20th, 2012
![]()
There was still a lot of mystery in their music quite difficult to describe, like a tangent and inexorable fear, not totally exposed but present nevertheless, moving like a martyr (hey, they have a song called Martyrium of the Hippolyt!) going to the scaffold with determination and pride.

President Obama Sings Robert Johnson’s “Sweet Home Chicago”
![]()
Clinton? Baby boomer. You can’t imagine him quoting Jay-Z. And while it is true that Clinton could actually blow the sa, he never had the cool of Obama. Obama is a hip hop president. Nixon, Reagan, Senior? Dubya was a lonesome cowboy who never got much further along than Toby Keith.

A Sinead O’Connor Playlist
![]()
her performance at Highline Ballroom starting today, the time seems ripe for a fave Sinead list. A little random, I admit, but enough well known songs. I am a big fan and have seen her on stage quite a few times but not in a long while.

Got A Grand? Meet The Beach Boys…
![]()
Look, the Bech Boys are NOT Bon Jovi. When you paid a coupla grand to meet Bon Jovi, you got stuck with their roadie. I am assuming you will get Al Jardine at the very least! Plus, cmon, it’s the Beach Boys.

SKRILLEX “Bangarang” Video Reviewed
![]()
The video is an epic adventure that the basic Fight Club or World of Warcraft geek is going to find ‘awesome’ and ‘amazing’ but that anyone who can get in to an R rated movie without an adult will find a bit cliche’. Been there, done that, took the Advil.

The magic of the blues, certainly the magic of the blues the way Johnson played it, was its intimate timelessness. Johnson met the devil on the crossroad and then he went back to Chicago, and ever since then we’ve made that trip with him.

McKinley Dixon “Free Fall (Part 2)” Feat. Blackbear-Free Download
![]()
At just sixteen years old, McKinley Dixon, an Annapolis, Maryland native, can sure throw beats together like nothing, and create a powerful, professional sounding song. It takes a lot of confidence to put yourself out there as a younger musician, especially when there’s always someone criticizing you
