Double Rainbow Mix

It’s been a month since I first laid eyes on the Double Rainbow video, and by now I hope you have all seen it as well. But just in case, let me break it down for you. Double Rainbow is, in my humble opinion, the greatest thing to come out of the internet this year… Read More

Newport Folk Festival Mix

I spent this past weekend in Rhode Island at the Newport Folk Festival. I am pretty exhausted, but I wanted to get you kids this mix as soon as humanly possible. Which turns out to be close to midnight when the goal was bed by ten. So you won’t get much commentary here (maybe one… Read More

10 Songs For 100 Days Of Oil Spill

Tomorrow marks 100 days since the BP oil spill in the gulf. I know they “successfully” capped it, but as long as that sucker is still leaking, I’m saying there is still an oil spill. But this disaster got me thinking a lot about the good old days of folk – when popular music regularly included anthems… Read More

The Quintessential Fourth of July Mix

The Quintessential Fourth of July Mix

America Is Not The World by Morrissey came on my shuffle the other day, and I thought “Gee, that would be a humorous song to put on a Fourth of July mix, if only I had one of those.” And then I realized how easy it would be to accomplish just that. I think… Read More

A Token Of Gratitude

A Token Of Gratitude

Last night I realized something awful. I had mistakenly deleted 22 folders of music. Permanently. This is what I get for procrastinating and working on mixes at 3am. I was raised to be a loyal PC girl, so no Mac Time Machine for me. Needless to say, I was pretty devastated. I posted an account of my… Read More

Top Ten Tax Songs

Taxes are no fun. But aren’t you glad you are all done with them? Because it means refund time! So consider this your first of hopefully several, a mix about money, taxes, and stickin’ it to the man. Here are my top ten money/tax-related songs.

1. The Beatles – Taxman
2. The Robert Cray Band – 1040… Read More

SXSW Bands I Saw (In The Order I Saw Them)

This year I saw 50+ bands while in Austin. It was pretty exhausting. More exhausting though? Writing this post. What follows is a recap, illustrated through video I took during the week, and soundtracked with two jam-packed mixes for your streaming pleasure. You may notice that some bands have more love in the commentary than… Read More

SXSW10 Bands I Meant to See

I went to South By Southwest this year with a plan. It was a somewhat grandiose plan, with over 250 items on it for music alone, and when all was said and done, I saw 51 different bands perform. Granted, some on that original list represented the insanity promoting your band has become – best I can tell,… Read More

Bands I Saw at SXSW10: Day #4

Day #4 of sxsw = last day. I saw 12 acts, if you include the one I have labeled “douchey punk band.” Things like that are what happen when your drinks:band ratio tips in favor of drinks. Plenty of bands I did love, despite numerous sound system failures. I chalk it all up to the frozen tundra that… Read More

Bands I Saw at SXSW10: Day #3

Friday marked a full week that I had been in Austin, and thus I was a little strung out from lack of sleep and too much rock. (If that’s possible.) I tried to take it easy, and saw only 8 bands all day. Full disclosure: the first band on my list I have no idea what their name… Read More

Top Ten Worst Band Names From the Warped Tour 2010

When I was in my formative high school days, going to the Warped Tour was a highlight of the summer. Just old enough to drive, we’d pile about 9 bros and skateboards into mom-duke’s Ford Exploder and drive at high speed to Fitchburg or some other pseudo-municipality in middle Massachusetts, blasting Rage Against The Machine and… Read More
