Prince’s performance at Mohegan Sun was just as James Brown as it was Jimi Hendrix and if by some chance, someone in attendance doubted his status as one of the
There’s something in the sound of Queens of the Stone Age that doesn’t feel quite right and it’s awesome. While their riff-heavy brand of desert-bred stoner rock has found its
Puscifer’s Donkey Punch The Night offers a few unique tunes and a cover worth listening to once, but as a whole, the EP is the most lacking studio product Maynard James Keenan has put out in recent memory.
The first day of the inaugural Catalpa/NYC Music Festival kicked off with more logistical problems than could be counted but ended on a high note with a barn burning headline performance by The Black Keys.
Catalpa NYC is taking Randall’s Island captive this July with performances from artists ranging from The Black Keys, Snoop Dogg, and Girl Talk, to Matisyahu and Umphrey’s Mcgee. The tri-state area is notorious for being a Bermuda triangle of sorts when it comes to music festivals as festivals in New York tend to disappear (All Points West anyone?).

It is a little disturbing how many people with very serious problems wrote to the former (and future) Black Sabbath front-man regarding serious medical problems, and while he was always willing to put his two cents in, Ozzy told every single one of them to visit a real doctor. Trust Me, I’m Dr. Ozzy isn’t going to change the way you live day to day, but it will provide you with plenty of entertaining anecdotes that just may prove to be applicable to your life.
His writing for The Daily Show and 30 Rock got the attention of NBC who cast him on Community alongside Chevy Chase and E! Entertainment’s Joel McHale. But I’m interviewing him before a sold out show at Boston’s House of Blues where he’ll be performing as Childish Gambino, a hip hop persona many have compared to both Kanye and Drake.
When you throw the term super group around, the tendency is to dwell on the star studded lineup that earned the group its “super” status, and Tinted Windows is no exception. The power pop quartet has been riding high upon the heels of their self-titled freshman debut, but on the surface, the group’s lineup makes for a much better story than the album.
