A Celebration of Life, Love and Ambition that Outlasts Obstacles
I’ve been enjoying the latest Los Lobos release “Tin Can Trust” quiet a bit. It’s got everything you could want in a new record from American’s most versatile rock band. A Cesar ballad, a power three guitar attack track, some great Hidalgo accordion, and some near perfect Hidalgo guitar solo’s. I love the groove they [...]
Some of the best times in college for me was heading down to New Orleans for the Widespread Panic Halloween shows. The band would put on an epic trio of shows, dropping plenty of cover tunes and having guests sit in. 1998, the first year we went, was adequately described by my friend Megan’s ecstatic words [...]

For a young guy growing up in Australia, going to Colorado State University in Fort Collins, CO, was an experience. Living at The Castle a few blocks from the Aggie Theater, where great live bands came often, was quiet the lifestyle. My room mate for a while was one of the owners of the venue. [...]
Concluding the Telluride Bluegrass series, this show that is really a lot of fun. With a stripped down version of his band The Range, Bruce Horsnby throws a party with plenty of special guests. This set goes to a new level when Bruce does a few songs of his hero Leon Russell, with Leon’s old [...]
A while back I came across a video “Evening Gown” on Youtube by the fine country balladeer Mick Jagger: Filmed at the Webster Hall in New York City on February 9th 1993 in support of the new Mick Jagger solo album “Wandering Spirit“. Seeing other songs listed from this show on Youtube I immediately started [...]
