I need to get out more. Staying home puts too much pressure on my blogging. I have two ideas for today’s blog, much better than when I sit here hoping that one comes to me. Time out, the WQXR announcer said “Richard” Strauss with “Richard” pronounced like Richard Nixon not the German “Rick-hard” Is she […]

Today’s edition of Wise Madness is about seeing the Anna/Kate Band. Now that I got the attention grabbing lede out of the way I can work my way up to it in my round-about manner. I’m getting a late start today. I woke up my usual time, went to my computer, and within 20 minutes […]
Last night I went to a great concert, Courtney Hartman & Taylor Ashton and Steph Jenkins. I’m uncertain how to say that; On the Facebook Event it was Courtney Hartman & Taylor Ashton // Steph Jenkins but on the Rockwood Page it was Stephanie. Let me check her brand-new EP, End to End.

Yesterday was a long and fun day. First there was therapy. My therapist always gives me extra time. She asked me, “how do you do that?” I’m a fun patient to treat. Then it was off to Tarrytown to see Joe Crookston and Anthony da Costa. Therapy is in Harrison, due east in Westchester so […]
Back in June I started something that was supposed to become a regular feature, You Probably Haven’t Heard. It’s a list of musicians that have not reached their potential audience. Anyone playing large venues or well known to My Gentle Readers, is excluded. I’m trying to expose you to musicians that are new to you that you will enjoy. I am not expecting anyone to love all my recommendations but every reader should find new acts to love.
I never got dressed yesterday so writing about my day is simple. I blogged. I walked down the block to the supermarket to get milk and eggs, and I finished watching Iron Fist This might cost me all my street cred but I loved season 2. It left so many threads dangling that I can’t […]
