Recommended Tuesday Show: Franz Nicolay at Union Hall?
I’m a little bit confused about this one. Some sources seem to indicate that The Hold Steady’s resident keyboardist and saw-player is playing at Union Hall tomorrow night. Other sources, like his own MySpace page, do not. As soon as I figure it out, I’ll update this. But, just in case the show is happening, [...]

Recommended Monday Show: Ferraby Lionheart at Pianos
I’m a little late in the day on this one, and admittedly very tired. I only took a quick look at the show list for tomorrow (today) and based on my first glance, I’d recommend Ferraby Lionheart at Pianos. He’s an upbeat, cutesy singer-songwriter. I have to admit that the name really irks me, but [...]
New(ish) Song/Video – Here We Go Magic's "Tunnelvision"
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fer4JUpYWV0&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0] This song has been kicking around the blogosphere for awhile now, and this neat video came out for it last week. Here We Go Magic (some of you might recognize the band as Luke Temple’s project) is definitely going to be one of the next big buzz bands, so stay tuned for more from [...]
Recommended Sunday Show: Team Genius at Glasslands
[vodpod id=Groupvideo.2122724&w=425&h=350&fv=] I was not too excited when I glanced at the prospects for this Sunday’s shows. Matisyahu? Nope. Ryan Adams playing in New Jersey? Nope. A really terrible band called My Dear Disco that I saw play at Mercury Lounge a few weeks ago? Nope. That left me with only two show options for [...]
Recommended Saturday Show: Celebration and Tall Firs at Glasslands
I’m very behind the times on this one. As I was perusing tomorrow’s happenings, I noticed that the Tall Firs were playing with a band called Celebration. I thought, “That’s a neat band name,” and decided to check them out. Apparently, they are a couple who has been making indie music for several years with [...]

Photos: Ducktails, PAK, and Noise Nomads
Just got a brand new lens and flash for my camera. I’m still figuring it all out (especially for the first few of these pics), but I’m happy report that the picture quality on this site should improve significantly. Last night’s show at Silent Barn was quite a nice little noise set. I could only [...]
Recommended Friday Show: Tim Fite, Benjy Ferree, and DeLeon at The Bell House
As per usual, there are a lot of shows going down tomorrow. If I had the pick of the litter, though, I’d choose to see Tim Fite, Benjy Feree, and DeLeon at The Bell House. Tim Fite is a very interesting character. You may remember him from a music video that got frequent play on [...]
Nice New Song: "The Dark" by Woods
I’ve blogged about Woods a few times, but only in the context of them playing with other bands. When I heard this song on Gorilla vs. Bear earlier today, I decided it was time to give them the full-on attention they deserve. Apparently, this is the b-side for a new seven-inch. If this is the [...]
There and Back Again #2: Guided By Voices' Bee Thousand (Plus a few thoughts on The Pains of Being Pure at Heart)
Before this week, I had never listened to Guided By Voices’ 1994 album, Bee Thousand. For many, this is not such an egregious omission on my part; I know plenty of die-hard indie fans who never really went though a Guided By Voices phase. They are the kind of band that everyone always has in [...]
Recommended Thursday Show: Ducktails at Silent Barn!!!!
I’ve had this show on my calendar for weeks and weeks. Ducktails is the project of a lone New Jerseyite, almost exactly my age. Maybe that’s why I identify with his tropically breezy noise tunes, but I just love this kid. I’ve never been to Silent Barn before, and I am so pumped to finally [...]
