Wilco at the Ryman TONIGHT!
Man, I’ve been having trouble writing today. I don’t know if it was a long week, and I am tired… or maybe I just don’t know how to talk about Wilco in a way that everyone and their father (insert dad rock reference here) doesn’t know…. or maybe I am just still mesmerized by…

Luckily for all of us tickets are still available. This show should have a…

SoundLand – Days 3 & 4
Day 3 of SoundLand began way too late for me. I had every intention of rolling in right at the start of the evening’s music calendar. Ah….. life, you have a way of screwing up some great times for me. The evening began at the Cannery stage where Jason Isbell bored me to sleep. …

SoundLand – Day 2
This is my first SoundLand, and I was not disappointed. Last night, I wandered through sets by Machines Are People Too, Foster The People, Carl Broemel, Ben Sollee, Uncle Skeleton, and Boss Of Nova. I ramble below. Machines Are People Too are a Chattanooga, TN three piece of electronica, keyboards, and drums. With the…
