A* Likely Story

I’m trying something new, dedicating an entire entry to an album review. Is this thinking ahead? My last entry was my 2000-word opus on the essential albums of 2023. If I write reviews as the albums come in, I’ll save all that time at the end of the year. When I wrote the Essential Albums […]

Freelance Nunsense

Unbelievably I’m writing again. I have fallen behind even though I’m hardly doing anything. I’ll divide this entry into two parts, my health, for those who want to know how their friend is doing, and my musical adventure, for those who miss the Wise Madness view of the world. My Health: On Friday I had […]

A Capella That Doesn’t Suck

I’m still having difficulty writing. River me to and their wish is my command. I’m not going to watch Ahsoka till I finish. River has a special interest in this entry, and we went to see Pentatonix together on Sunday night. I didn’t know much about the group though I had heard good things. River […]

Falcon Ridge: Endgame

It’s time to move on to Saturday night at Falcon Ridge. Sorry that this has taken me so long. Because of the rain the entire Saturday night set was moved later. I left after Tony Trischka’s set. On the way back to camp I ran into Allison. I knew that her camp, Stupid Americans was […]

Falcon Ridge Part II: The Attack of the Clones

Back to Falcon Ridge. We pick up our story on Friday, the first day of Main Stage music. In the afternoon we had the scaled down Emerging Artists Showcase. I am not going to do a run down of all the artists. I’m still trying to make this just the highlights of the highlights. My […]

Falcon Ridge Part 1

Kathy wants me to write my Falcon Ridge entry and her wish is my command. I am not going to give my usual multipart discourse into every detail of the festival. I’m still easing myself back into writing. I’ll write today until I’ve had enough and see if there is anything left to say later. […]

Kentucky Comes to Greenwich Village

Enough putting off writing. River has shamed me by writing their Falcon Ridge blog, This is My Home. I am going to put off writing my entry about Falcon Ridge as I did something worth writing about last night. I went to see Nora Brown, Sarah Kate Morgan, and John Haywood at Café Wha?. How […]

I am going to try and blog for the first time in months. Yesterday was my birthday, now that I am older and more mature, I might be up for it. I’m not going to be overly ambitious. I’ll stick to the highlights surrounding my birthday. First off, I care about my birthday, This is […]

Anna And The King of Barbecue

Today is a rare staying at school later than I have to update. Why? I could go home stay there for an hour, then turn around but I decided instead that I’ll stay at school, have a leisurely dinner out, then go see Anna Dagmar conduct at Hunter college. I might take a nap while […]

Flaming Cheese in Concert

Good evening America and all the ships at sea. This weekend was a Gordon Special, all about me being me. On Saturday I wrote the script for this week’s Gord’s Gold. That’s not the special part. The evening was special, Carolann Solebello, Tina Vero, and Dave Murphy played the PostCrypt Coffeehouse, in the bowels of […]
