Another one of our master scavengers on retainer dug up the ultimate present for anyone with too much time on their hands. From what I know about the world wide
You’re getting older, so that likely means no more candy on Halloween. But luckily for you, Tea Leaf Green and Sirius have combined forces to make sure you’ll still get
If you’ll kindly scroll down three posts to yesterday’s “Shine A Light: Scorsese & The Stones,” you’ll see that there’s some major ridiculousness in store for New York City on October 29th and 31st.
On those nights, New York’s Beacon Theater plays host to the age-defying Rolling Stones and one of this country’s greatest I-talian film directors in what is sure to be a star-studded event of mind-blowing, face-melting, pee-pantsing proportions.
And now, they’re making tickets available to the public…read on, sluts.
Every Tuesday, without fail, I get jammed up at work. Real, actual work. Paycheck work. And that sucks, because as much as I like earning money for a job well-done,
Eleven tracks, each one a number (“Nine,” “Sixteen,” “Fifteen Parts 1 & 2”), none of it sequential, none of it essential.
It’s a movie about a rock ‘n’ roll lifestyle, but there are no VH1 “Behind The Music” moments here – unless you consider shopping for organic vegetables as crazy as thrashing hotel rooms after orgies.
TV on the Radio successfully transferred their studio-oriented material over to the live spectrum, although the group has become the indie scene’s new “flavor of the month” and the degree to which their new place under the spotlight will last, has yet to be determined.
Everyone’s favorite redheaded singer played a free show in Denver’s Twist & Shout record store last night, and by all accounts, the event acoustically melted faces. Trey not only performed, but
A bit of breaking news from the weekend to report: I walked by the side entrance of the Beacon Theater on Saturday morning to find an unusual amount of activity, especially for this early on a weekend. That’s when I saw Martin Scorsese walk into the building. Now that piqued my interest.
At that point I remembered reading that Scorsese would be filming the upcoming Rolling Stones concerts at the Beacon Theater. As I walked around the building I saw that the production team had blocked off a number of local blocks, and they were loading literally tons of equipment into the Beacon. On each blocked-off street, the crew members posted fliers explaining that Scorsese was filming a movie that “takes a behind the scenes look at the world of rock and roll.”
That’s the second thing that piqued my interest that morning, so I grabbed the signage from the post and did some classic investigating…
It’s peculiar that The Hold Steady are considered “indie”, considering there’s no whiney “Mountain Goats/Decemberists/Shins” thing going on. Upon listening to Boys and Girls in America, you’re almost bound to ask “ what Springsteen album is this?” And throw Boys and Girls in any roadhouse bar, and a toothless trucker with a mullet will ask for another round.
