Baltimore Round Robin (Feet Night) @ Mass Art, 10.03.08
The first Feet night of Dan Deacon’s Baltimore Round Robin brain child was Friday night at Mass Art’s Pozin Gymnasium.
Before expounding on how the entire affair went down, one must understand how the concert was set up. As promoted, bands set up in an almost complete circle around the gym. Since the space was inadequate […]
What I’ve Been Listening To: V.1, P.18
Three sets of music have been dominating my time.
First, Billy’s introductory Dylan mix. Although I’m not new to Dylan, I had never heard Dylan’s poem to Woodie Guthrie. Also, Billy’s song selection is dead on so it’s a solid mix regardless of one’s familiarity with Bob Dylan.
Second, Chairlift’s self-titled debut. It’s a great blend of […]
What I’ve Been Listening To: V. 1, P. 14
Given my current work schedule I’m listening to music for around six out of the eight hour work day plus whatever I listen to when I get home. So, I’m listening to quite a bit more than I’m posting on my weekly muxtape these days. Therefore, I’ve decided to confine it artists that have piqued […]
What I’ve Been Listening To: V. 1, P. 13
A quick mix today for a couple reasons: (1) It’s the 4th (of July) (2) I’m without my external hard drive so I can’t upload a lot of what I’ve been listening to.
A few notes: the Beatles’ Yer Blues is from the Esher Demos. Dylan’s Talkin’ John Birch Paranoid Blues is from the complete NYC […]
RSL Presents the Back and White Years, and I Survived Bonnarooooo
Hey y’all (get it, cause I just came from the south?), I’m back from Bonnaroo. The festival was amazing. Brilliant performances by the Felice Brothers, !!!, MIA, and more. Kanye incited the scorn of the free lovin’ people of the festival, Eddie Vedder got drunk, I scanned ticket stubs and saw a man mistake his […]
I’m Going To Bonnaroo, You’re On Your Own (Kind Of)
I’m on my way to Bonnaroo this evening. I’m going to try my best to get some blogging done from the event. Maybe post some pictures, or a few quick stories, ideas, and random musings. I’m volunteering at the event so I’m not sure what kind of access I’ll be able to […]
This Is Boston, Not L.A.
I’m coming to grips with the fact that I enjoy sports, but I don’t really like them in the play fantasy sports, devour Sports Center every morning, watch college sports (asides from BU hockey) type of way. I guess what I’m saying is that I catch games here and there but I usually don’t make […]

Ok, so I’m a day late with this update but late is better than never. I’m also not going to go into as much depth speaking about each band. In fact, I’m just going to list them today because I’m in a hurry to finish show listings for the week and write some about a […]
The Black Lips Have A Sense of Humor
It’s funny because it’s ironic. Also, Vice Records are masters of time release promotion. They’re adderall for the music masses.
An aside…
I wrote a review of the March Black Lips/Quintron/Big Disappointments show at the Middle East. It was titled Pussy Lips and a Big Disappointment. It’s been one of the most popular posts ever, but […]

Rocket From the Tombs was the band that split and created Pere Ubu and the Dead Boys. In both cases the latter bands went on to […]
