At Drive by Truckers at Webster Hall.Well, if I am gonna go into seclusion for six frenetic weeks of academia there are worse ways to do it than following up a music and snowboard festival with K’naan and DBT in back to back weeknights.

At K’naan and Wale at Irving Plaza.I don’t see a lot of rap shows, mainly cause they tend to start much later than they’re supposed to and are (at least in my limited experience) poorly mixed, phoned in, and messy. Still, Wale and K’naan...

At Jason Isbell solo acoustic at City Winery.This one almost slipped under the radar. A solo acoustic performance as the opening act at an unusual venue for some cat named Jason Arthur. But pouring over the concert listings every week paid of...

On a snow day.(Editors Note: Oops, sorry seems like I missed an entry when I was posting.)

gonna eat himself to death.I thought I had seen it all. But when it comes to clogging arteries Springfield has just taken it up a dramatic notch. Because I am so speechless (probably due to vocal cords clogged in deep fried fat) I am merely...

Not alone.Templeton arrived today, in a box of items from home. Perfect timing as today I got a mattress. Total credit to Meeta and Justin for lending me their extra mattress.

watching Alberta Cross at the Bowery Ballroom.Good show, good band. Have a little My Morning Jacket thing going. But damn if that crowd didn’t suck. The worst of the indie/hipster concert attendees. Don’t move, express the enthusiasm of the...
