Regina Spektor At United Palace Theater, Tuesday, May 15th, 2012 Reviewed
The set was so well paced but it was hard not to be. Regina has so many great songs but is really a schticky chick: she pulls out the Music Hall “Sailor Song” and is as willing to go deep into her Russian roots and pull out a gypsy folkie refrain as an glammy popness or a classical U Turn.

And Now, CBGB The Movie
But wow they are really re-launching this CBGB thing full time! A new location, a music festival and now a movie, it is difficult not to see an exploitation of the famous name behind all this

Lady Gaga Flesh Dress 2
I’m not quite sure why I am even giving this the time of day, its really just a pathetic attempt at shock cuz it isn’t shocking me. Wear an outfit of human skin then maybe I’ll turn my head- this is just sad and desperate.

Conor Oberst’s “One Of My Kind” Reviewed
The movie closes with Conors scribbled lyric and him sitting and singing it, “I can’t live here but I’ll I’ll probably die here…” he moans. It is terrific. Better than anything on the last Bright Eyes

Jay-Z Endorsing Obama’s Statement About Gay Marriage
There was obviously some part of calculation in Obama’s decision to speak in favor of gay marriage, it was a very good thing to do, but it is a little laughable when you remember the president’s less-than-pro-gay-marriage declaration when he met with pastor Rick Warren in 2008:

Doctor Don Henley, Berklee School of Music Gives Honorary Degrees
Should there not be some sense of musical education? Should there not be more than just a boat load of standards? Apparently not. Maybe they were available for graduation weekend so they booked them since there were slim pickin’s?

“Dark Shadows” Reviewed (More Or Less)
Musically, it is awesome. T-Rex, Curtis Mayfield, Barry White and of course, the one and only Alice Cooper in a cameo.

Lady Gaga Forced To Cancel Sold Out Gig In Jakarta Because of Muslim Protesters
What can I say, these people live in another century, in another geological period, they keep their women under Burkas, so Gaga in full bra may come as a shock indeed. Muslim extremists have the biggest problem in the world with sexuality, as they come just behind the American Santorum-type.

Last Post About The Rolling Stones on SNL This Week
Mick Jaggersits on a tiny stage with the Ghost of Rock and Roll Future, upstart hipster frauds Arcade Fire, the pathetic excuse for current Ghost of Rock and Roll Present Foo Fighters, and The Ghost of Rock and Roll Past Jeff Beck.

Noel Gallagher Cried Like A Baby
I swore a lot and then I cried like a baby because I’ve never seen anything like that before. It was mindblowing.”

Three Years Later, Bret Michaels Settles The Score with The Tonys
There were warning strokes and a mish mosh of other maladies all screaming headlines of the rockers imminent death. The dude was being circled by vultures for months

Streaming Services To Get Own Chart In UK… Can US Be Far Behind?
who will be providing the figures and why would they open their books and, how does this effect Pandora, where the music is programed more like a radio? What;s to stop a rock band giving bucks to Pandora for additional airplay which will push them further up the charts?

To See Or Not To See? Bon Iver At Radio City (Plus Setlist)
Justin Vernon is a lugubrious bore but his songs can hook you if you don’t have your guard up and while his falsetto at first sounds a form of torture Obama has made illegal against Al Qaeda terrorists (or soldiers: tomatoes, tomartoes), it has grown on me after being inescapable for years

Listen Up: 5-17-12
Only The Horses – Scissor Sisters – A loss leader from their upcoming album, this is a disco ballad which takes advantage of Jake’s falsetto on a song that isn’t all there. There is better on the way. – Grade: B

Jail Weddings‘ (There’s Nothing Worse In The World Than A) Crying Girl’ Reviewed
it’s so bombastic and theatrical it could be an Arcade Fire tune sung by Nick-Cave-meets-Ziggy-Stardust, whereas its title is so long it could compete with any Fiona Apple’s song.
