Mudcrutch Night Fever

This is a really good Saturday night record. Of course, by Saturday night record I don’t mean Saturday nights like the one I’m having. I’m sitting in my living room, alone, behind my MacBook Pro working on a music review and sipping Coca-Colas as my three cats crawl all over the small […]

Music of the Moment: Mudcrutch

Where to begin?
It’s Wednesday. I’m sure that means something. I’m not sure what. It’s been an unsettling morning and I feel like I’m still trying to catch up to my day. It reminds me of those Westerns where you see someone running or riding a horse alongside a moving train, trying […]

So Much Music, So Little Time: Mudcrutch

We take a break from the Bruce Springsteen Fanboy love fest to talk about ::gasp:: other music.
Man, I have so much to talk about and so much to do and there just aren’t enough hours to get to it all. I’m finally making time to listen to Mudcrutch’s debut record. Mudcrutch […]

The Six Degrees of Benmont Tench

Is there anyone who hasn’t played with this guy?
Tench, member of Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, has contributed to a new album with former Toad the Wet Sprocket frontman Glen Phillips, Nickel Creek-ers Sara and Sean Watson, Pete Thomas and Dave Faragher of Elvis Costello’s Impostors, Luke Bula of Blue Merle, and multi-instrumentalist Greg Leisz.

Catblogging Ringo Starr

We had dinner last night with my mom and her husband. It’s been an awful struggle for my mom at work (discretion dictates I not elaborate further) but she was able to get out of the house last night and we had some dinner. It hasn’t been a banner year for her husband, […]

Music Of The Moment: Tom Petty - Wildflowers

I should have known Tom would have the answer! I decided to listen to Wildflowers this morning and as “You Don’t Know How it Feels” fades into the third track it hit me: “Time To Move On.” Yes. Yes it is.
How great did he and The Heartbreakers sound last night? […]

DVD of The Moment: Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers - Runnin’ Down a Dream

It’s a tired, tired Friday night and I’m relaxing by watching my Tom Petty DVD. It’s one way of getting ready for the Super Bowl. The way I figure, Tom Petty will be the most entertaining thing in Arizona on Sunday.
This is such a great movie and the footage is just great. […]

Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers Announce 2008 Summer Tour

I have been meaning to talk about this all week and I just haven’t had a fucking chance to sit and write about it, so file this away in your “A Day Late and a Dollar Short” folder.
Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers are, as I reported on the site earlier, playing the halftime show at […]

2007 Best of the Rest, Vol. 1 (The Re-Issues): Satriani, Traveling Wilburys, Elliott Smith

Welcome to the Buyer’s Remorse column for 2007. I called my shot and named my Top 10 Albums of the Year, and already I’m pissed about all the great records I didn’t get to mention. Fortunately there’s an easy remedy for that. In no particular order (unless otherwise noted), here are a […]

Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers to Play Super Bowl XLII

Oh, glory! The Super Bowl won’t be that entertaining with the way the Patriots are going to dismantle whomever is put in front of them. At least the halftime show will be worthwhile.
Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers have been booked as this year’s halftime entertainment. It’s about time! It’s about time […]
