Sleepy Sun @ Casbah 7-25-10
Open Eyes by Sleepy Sun I’m on record saying the Casbah is one of my favorite places in the world to see a show; it is not however the place you expect to find yourself immersed in a psychedelic rock concert. I’ve previously been escorted out for getting a little...
Capitol Hill Block Party Day 3
Coverage of CHBP Day 1 Coverage of CHBP Day 2 For those still standing, Capitol Hill Block Party day 3 started off with Texas based pop-rockers, Harlem. They gave a good effort, but after seeing so much talent over the past two days they left me feeling like I needed...

Drive-By Truckers @ HOB San Diego
How to prepare for a DBT show is pretty straight forward. Grab your best friends, grab some Whiskey, and then don’t plan on anything for three days that requires acute hearing. Popular music is littered with “it bands” that don’t have 60 minutes of material recorded yet. It’s nice to...
Japandroids Exclusive Video – Art Czars
Japandroids’ debut release Post Nothing daftly negotiated through a lush and expansive soundscape of naivety and hopefulness.
