It’s been 36 hours since MIA “flicked” the bird at the Superbowl, and now it is time to move on and talk about some local music happenings that matter. It’s quite the double bill tonight at The End as The Black Belles team up with fuzz pop rockers Bleached for another awesome night out…

I love it when people say “flicked off” instead of “flipped off”, and I was especially excited to use that phrase in a post after seeing MIA “flick off” the world on it’s biggest televised stage. So, what did you think of that Madonna produced party? I’m not really a huge Madonna fan. I…

While the biggest shows in Nashville tonight are probably David Allen Coe at Marathon Music Works and Rusko at Cannery Ballroom, neither of those are peaking my interest enough to write about them… for whatever reason.

Is it youngster night at The End in Nashville tonight? I guess I’m probably only showing my age by saying that, but as I’ve been doing research about all the bands in tonight’s lineup… I’m blown away by how talented these young artists are. I had the opportunity to see Night Beds open for…

While we may not be getting any new White Stripes material ever again, we can at least revel in the upcoming solo debut, titled Blunderbuss, from Jack White. Doesn’t debut just sound weird next to Jack White’s name? He has such an impressive catalog behind him that it’s strange to think this is the…
