As we alluded to yesterday, Bob Weir and Phil Lesh’s latest project, Furthur, will continue into 2011. Today, the band has announced three shows at the First Bank Center in
With Hanukkah already underway and Christmas right around the corner, it’s officially that time of year. You know, the one where you feel sick from overeating for a month straight
A couple of weeks ago, I took a three day weekend to head down to South Beach and points south to get out of NYC for a few days to refresh and recharge as well as see some friends that I usually only see when they come to the Big Apple. My first post from this trip was F4tF: The Best Burger in America about Le Tub in Hollywood Beach, Florida. This week’s post is about a place that I had not planned on going to and was only told about after heading somewhere else first. That place was Robert Is Here.
On the second day of my trip (Sunday), one of the things that was on the agenda was to find a good farmer’s market in the Miami area. I emailed one of my chef friends who said the place to go was Pinecrest Gardens which was about a 1/2 hour south of Miami and was rated “Best Farmer’s Market In Miami” in the Miami New Times Best of 2010. We got in the car, GPS’d the location we were given and headed down to Pinecrest (open Every Sunday, November 7th – May 28, 2011 from 9:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m.). My chef friend was right, the selection was beautiful, flavorful and bountiful.
Below are some of the pictures I shot at the market that day:

Earlier this year, The AV Club invited 25 bands to stop by their Chicago office to take part in their inaugural A.V. Undercover series – which yielded some fantastic results. As a follow up, the website decided to go with a holiday music theme, but changed the rules a bit, by allowing bands to pick their own song, with the caveat that it had to somehow be holiday related.
The first band to take the challenge was New York-based, indie-rockers The Walkmen, who have awesomely and cleverly chosen Lindsey’s Buckingham’s Holiday Road – otherwise known as the theme to the National Lampoon Vacation series. READ ON to see the results…
This evening, Fuse debuts an hour-long program featuring highlights from SPIN’s 25th Anniversary Concert Series, which took place earlier this year in New York City. Tune in at 9PM EST
When you listen to a record like Push, it’s almost like you’re feeling the live show right through the headphones. Definitely a band with a positive outlook, 40 Watt Hype is a rare breed of instrumental hip-hop soul and the Latin influence that is rooted within the music only gives off more energy.
The Allman Brothers concluded their short autumn tour of theatres with three sold out shows at The Orpheum in Boston that simultaneously re-affirmed their own passion for their music and justified the loyalty of their fan base.
Rather than an “I was there and you weren’t” account of hanging out with ’70s rock gods, LZ-’75 manages to make all concerned seem rather mortal in their own way. The impetus for Davis to write the book after all these years was the recent discovery of a box of long-lost treasures from the tour. Call it a time capsule if you will; a happy accident seems more apropos.
