I can’t believe it’s already been a week since Superball IX. The Phish festival, held over Fourth of July weekend in Watkins Glen, NY., was the ninth festy hosted by the jam band, but the first that I've ever attended. Initially, I was skeptical- could one band really keep me entertained for an entire weekend? No late-night music, multiple stages and headlining acts? Uhh... YUP. … [Read more...]

Strange Creek 2011: Same creek, different vibe.
May 31, 2011 By 13 Comments
What happens when the very quality that makes something so unique is the same quality that seemingly exploits it? When the "special thing" that sets something apart is the very same thing that allows it to gain popularity? I found myself pondering such quandaries during my time at Strange Creek Music Festival, held last weekend in Greenfield, Mass., as I frolicked among the hippies who also opted to spend their Memorial Day weekends dancing in a field eating grilled cheeses rather than … [Read more...]

As every good music fan knows, sometimes even the best album can take a few listens before it starts to grow on you.

Enrique Iglesias is f*cking you tonight.
January 10, 2011 By 14 Comments
Clear your weekend schedule, pick up a fresh razor, and slather on your finest Bath & Body Works scented lotion- because tonight Enrique Iglesias is fucking you, whether you want it or not. What in God's name was Enrique's manager thinking when he gave him the go-ahead to record this song (very matter-of-factly titled, "Tonight (I'm Fucking You)")? Furthermore, what type of songwriter would even think to write something like this? (I think we can safely assume that E.I. isn't coming up … [Read more...]
