I haven’t been musically active since the last Trumpet Marine gig last year at the Terminal Bar. Well, that’s not entirely true. I have actively disbanded Trumpet Marine and given up on any idea of ever pursuing it again. That counts as a musical activity of sorts. I have written [...]

I have been a fan of Yeah Yeah Yeahs since their first album. I love the energy, I love the pop sensibility, and after catching them at First Avenue once, I LOVE Karen O.

I am listening to Paul McCartney’s new album “Electric Arguments”, released under the name The Fireman. I want to like it. Really I do. I’ve been a fan of The Beatles since before I have conscious memory. Paul’s album “Ram” is one of my favorite albums of all time. I’m on track 8 of my [...]
