Ever want to see one of your favorite bands from your childhood? How about a band that introduced you into a whole new genre of music? I was lucky enough to get that chance Sunday night when Norma Jean and five other groups took to the stage at The Emerson Theater. The first band to play, Venable, was an interesting hardcore-fusion band that I had never heard before, but it seemed a good portion of... 

If you were looking for fun and excitement at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, you would’ve found it everywhere you went…except at the Miller Lite Stage on Carb Day. When I arrived about an hour before Papa Roach was set to go on, there were already thousands and thousands of spectators that had made their way from the grandstands to the infield in preparation for the annual concert.

Michelle Malone Listen to Michelle Malone’s songs and it is all there lyrics that hit a chord of familiarity and rockabilly music with a bluesy heat.  It is no wonder she has been performing for over 25 years and still at it.  Drawing comparisons to singing with the conviction of Bonnie Raitt, Shelby Lynne, Lucinda Williams, playing guitar like Keith Richards, and writing songs like Bob Dylan,...

With people of all ages in attendance, Cake jammed the night away at the Egyptian Room on Sunday night. The night began just about ten minutes behind schedule though no one in the room seemed to mind very much. It was the first time I had ever seen a band open for themselves as Cake played two hour-long set sandwiched around a fifteen minute intermission. Nearly immediately following their opening... 

After the Bad Manners show at the Vogue on Friday the 13th, I got the chance to sit down with Buster Bloodvessel, the band’s over the top front man. Buster has been the lead singer of Bad Manners from the start (in fact, he’s the only remaining original member) and he’s seen a lot. Bad Manners, while not too terribly well known in the US anymore, charted a course of huge fame in the UK and Europe,... 

As the days get longer and the weather gets warmer, the eyes of the world slowly turn their gaze towards Central Indiana. And while some people’s attention will be fixated on the track this Memorial Day Weekend for Carb Day (Friday) and the big race (Sunday), there is an even bigger party just up north of Indy. Summer concert season is always an exciting time, and perhaps no one else hosts... 

Who Will Win The 2011 Season? As the final four performed for the final three spots on the ABC’s tenth season of American Idol, it was a night of tears. As James Durban was the newest contestant to be voted off, he ended the show with an extremely dramatic and tearful goodbye. Clearly, he was shocked and not ready to get rid of the cameras. He paraded with the microphone after he sang his final...
