Last Saturday night Casey and I attended the Britney Spears Circus tour at its stop in Grand Forks. It was quite the experience, and easily one of the city’s biggest events of the year. I’m glad we were able to see Britney once, but I don’t think I’d go again if she came back to town […]
This year’s Father’s Day gift from Casey and the boys was two tickets to see Green Day (one of my all-time favorite punk rock bands) live in Fargo. The concert was last Friday (July 10th), and they put on a great show. I became a fan of Green Day as a teenager with the release […]
Kael, our three year old, loves his music. He’s been known to play drums on almost anything that makes noise, and likes to strap the Guitar Hero plastic guitar on and play around the house. Well yesterday I took the day off for some much needed family time, and we made a trip into Grand […]
Although a full schedule at work and at home have prevented me from writing much here lately, I wanted to take a minute to share an awesome song and video with you. It’s called Pork And Beans by the band Weezer, and you can view the video below, or at YouTube. In case you didn’t […]
I finally managed to pull the last few videos and photos from last month’s Blue Man Group concert off the digital camera last weekend. It was an unbelievable show that I’d recommend to everyone. Our seats turned out to be really good, which gave me the chance to take some decent photos and videos with […]
The Blue Man Group How to be a Megastar Tour will be in Fargo tonight, and Casey and I will be taking in the concert. Friends who’ve seen it say it’s the best show they’ve seen, so we’re pretty excited. It seems that they encourage fans to bring their cameras, so I might have some […]
Digital music fans received some great news this morning: EMI (one of the largest record labels) is going to start offering DRM-free songs on iTunes. This is big, big, big. I’ve written about my extreme distaste of DRM before, but I didn’t think we’d see the beginning of its death so soon. I fully expected […]
I’m not a huge fan of Nine Inch Nails, but I think their gorilla marketing campaign for their upcoming album Year Zero is awesome. The band gave its first clue on the back of a tour t-shirt, which lead to a cryptic website. This, in turn, led to more sites being discovered, which unraveled a […]
I am constantly keeping my ears opened for new music of all types, most recently with my discovery of the Silversun Pickups yesterday. So, dear readers, I’m asking for your help. In the comments area of this post, tell me what artists/albums/songs you’re currently listening to right now? Even if you don’t consider it new, […]
I just discovered a new band today: the Silversun Pickups out of L.A. Their song “Lazy Eye” is unbelievable. I can’t get it out of my head. So, I thought I’d spread the love. You can view the video below, or on Youtube.
