It’s prom weekend in Hollywood and the parties and secret shows leading up to the Grammys have already begun. Why anyone would leave their house for a secret Black Eyed Peas show after their disaster at the Super Bowl last week, is beyond me, but someone is still buying their albums. If you can give … More Grammys: Meet the New Prom King, Same As The Old Prom King
Reposted from Antiquiet The last time I saw The Pixies‘ Doolittle tour, I was too young. As in: too young to get into the venue.

I had notes and cards, I had a freaking power point presentation…would I find the time to enjoy some aural pleasure? … More The Good, The Bad, and The Courtney – A Mini Review of SXSW
SxSw was a (not so hot) mess. If you combined the party hounds from the Super Bowl, Mardi Gras and Spring Break and confined them to a six block radius…and then tried to add some showcasing bands to the mix, you get a pretty good idea of the mayhem.

Forget candy hearts and wilted flowers. The way to really get to the heart of another is through the power of music.
