The Anal Beatles, The Basement, Tonight In Nashville
In a competition for the most disgusting band name, The Anal Beatles have finally provided some competition to Nashville rockers Diarrhea Planet, and they are playing their first (and possibly only) show as second on the bill at The Basement tonight in Nashville.

Live Music Day 2012
Wolfgang’s Vault is probably the largest collection of live concert recordings on the web, so when they claim today (January 5th) to be Live Music Day, it is something equivalent to Hallmark making up “Buy Everyone A Card Day”.

New Music Releases – 12/27/11
Here’s another tiny, tiny, tiny list of music releases that I think are worth a little bit of your time this week. Wouldn’t it be great if this was a massive release week? Almost everyone is just biding their time at work with skeleton crew offices this week. You would have plenty of time…

New Years Eve in Nashville, Music Recommendations
In my opinion, heading out to see a show is the best way to ring in the New Year. I generally feel like you really get your bang for your buck, and you don’t end up in some overcrowded bar with an unprecedented or undeserved cover. I’m going to be out of town for…

Last Minute Holiday Gift Ideas: Gary Clark Jr., F*cked Up, and Live and Reel presents Annie Williams
I’ve seen quite a few things roll across my desktop in the past week or so that I want to share with you, so I thought that I would throw up a few posts that we’ll call last minute gifts. This will also give me time to work on the Nashville New Years Eve…
