Tom Waits: “Lie to Me”

June 23rd, 2007 · Comments Off

I pick the worst times to get into bands. I literally decided to check out the Smashing Pumpkins the day they broke up. I missed the Unicorns on their last tour because I was still letting their album sink in and thought “I’ll catch ‘em next time.” And more recently, I missed Tom Waits in […]

The White Stripes @ Bonnaroo 6.17.01

June 21st, 2007 · Comments Off

Ever been to one of those shows that you walk away from thinking “if that’s the best concert I see this year, I’m doing alright” ? I’d say that about eighty thousand people had just that experience at Bonnaroo after the White Stripes.

June 21st, 2007 · Comments Off
