Songwriters Nashville-style Tonight at the Vernon Club
"Country" is a loose term in today's music. For a lot of people, it represents annoying over auto-tuned and over-produced twang music found on radio stations with lots of commercials. I call that pop-country, and it's not my favorite type of music. Admittedly, however, behind those pop songs can oft

John Mayer Concert Review
As I glance out across a packed house at Freedom Hall, I see an audience of age diverse people that decided nearly four months ago that they would spend this particular night with modern guitar god John Mayer. Mayer's first two albums were pop albums loaded with songs about teenage

John Mayer Came To Louisville...A Concert Review
I'm by no means a concert expert. I don't attend a lot of them and when I go, it's for good reason...Like the Police playing at Churchill Downs. That was a concert for the ages. So last night I went to the John Mayer concert. My best friend is his

Road trip preparation... a ridiculous rental car
About 10 days ago, someone ran into Friend-with-a-truck's truck, rendering it undrivable. Heretofore he will be known as Friend-without-a-Truck, or perhaps Friend-with-a-Ridiculous-Rental-Car.

ARDOR, an awesome metal band
Who says myspace is dead? If it wasn't for myspace I might not have heard about a smokin' sound that caters to my need to scream, jump, rock, and sing along all at once. Now, I'm not a super fan of scream metal but a lot of people are. I

Haiti Benefit at the Monkey Wrench tonight, Johnny Berry, more
I hear a lot of songs and poems written by teenagers, and the most common words in such songs are “I” and “me.” It's not reprehensible; it's just that most teenagers are wrapped up in their own dramas. That's why it's extra-cool to see high school students doing something that
