Lupe Fiasco – Lasers : Album Cover of the Year

Thursday, March 10th, 2011

This is genius. Seriously. I’m thinking about getting “laser” tattooed somewhere now.

The album is pretty good, too, after I got over the fact that it wasn’t what I wanted it to be musically. Lyrically, it is still deep, still impressive. Musically, it is a bit light for me. Very dancy. Very [...]

Babyshaker Record Release Part at the Milestone April 10, 2010

Saturday, April 17th, 2010

Babyshaker finally released a new album! They threw their record release party at the Milestone and made it through almost an entire set before Scott finally gave up on singing through his migraine.

Sunday, April 4th, 2010

Iron Cordoba’s Fighting Irish party was at a real gym this year: The Ultimate Gym in NoDa. They had to do quite a bit of work to get a stage, lights, sound system, and bar set up but it was nice to see a party/performance in a not only a different venue but a [...]

Sunday, June 21st, 2009

Jane’s Addiction was my favorite rock band from the first time I heard them in 1988. They played Charlotte that year but I was 15 and thought that fake IDs were something that only happened in the movies or I would have would have gone to see them. I was pissed that I [...]

Photos of Snowfight at Amos’ Southend May 29, 2009

Saturday, June 6th, 2009

I saw the first Snowfight show a couple months ago at Amos’ Southend and then saw them again last Friday. I’m not sure if they had new songs for this show or if they werer just better after a couple more months of practice, but they definitely sounded better and more cohesive to me this [...]
