The hardest working man in music, Warren Haynes, is back with the 20th year of his annual Christmas Jam. Though I’d pay a lot of money to go back in time and see all of the canadian tuxedos that people wore in 1988, this year looks like it could be a great event. This year’s [...]

Phish Friday came a little early this week. Tune in to http://www.livephish.com/radio/listen.m3u or stream from Phish.com to hear the upcoming live album At The Roxy. The site should be streaming each night today and tomorrow, though I’m not sure how much of the album, or at what points in the day, or if [...]

moe. announced a while back that they needed to take a bit of a break from the road in 2008, and they’ve already announced their return dates for early 2009. They’ll be doing three different two-night runs in their major markets and I’m sure more tour dates will be following soon. Check it.moe. [...]

Happy Halloween, party people…I’m quite psyched to be heading out in a few hours to catch Umphrey’s McGee and The New Deal play here in San Francisco at the Warfield, even if I’m totally and completely lame by deciding to just skip dressing up in a costume this year. I’m just not feeling it. [...]

The Apollo Sunshine tour rolls on further with three nights (starting tonight) as The Apollo Sunshine Experience, a tribute-esque performance with costumes and music celebrating the art of Jimi Hendrix. Sam’s going to be there tonight and I’m sure it’s going to rule. Then the band rolls through the rest of the country [...]

A few weeks back I went to go see David Byrne at the Davis Symphony Center for the first of two nights here in San Francisco and I’m surprised I never got around to writing something up on it. It was an absolutely incredible show for a Monday night affair, and it was my [...]

I remember seeing some rumors posted a while back about the fact that Led Zeppelin was going to return to the stage for a tour and/or a new album to support it, but I’ve never really given too much weight to anything I saw written. It all seemed to be the British tabloids just [...]

I just got done watching something kinda interesting and it’s kinda live music so I thought I would share. Plus I got the link from my music blog crush (aka Carrie Brownstein’s fantastic Monitor Mix blog).Two young Swedes go into the woods and record a cover of “Tiger Mountain Peasant Song” by Fleet Foxes.
