I had two-thirds of this initial review written by March, and I thought I was going to get a good jump on my posting of music I'm listening to this year. Then I got kicked out of my groove, like a needle skipping on a record, and ended up listening ...

More gigs! Some familiar bands, some new, and a couple known for their recordings but being seen for the first time. It's a mixed bag.
Toy, Charlie Boyer & the Voyeurs, Novella at the Scala
There's been a buzz about Toy for a while, but I procrastinated long enough about going to ...

I was aiming to get this final review of my 2012 music purchases out for the end of January, in a bid to make it somewhat timely, but again have fallen behind schedule. That's okay, though, as January has been pretty dry and I don't have any new music to ...

My final set of gigs for the year had a busy month of November, which turned out to be not quite as busy as I expected, thanks to illness. I still managed to squeeze in a bunch of gigs, and had some good nights out. There were a couple of ...

I'm still late with reviewing the music I've bought this year, but here's my second collection of albums. There's more to come, once I get around to writing about it.
Grimes is pushing out albums almost quicker than they can be pressed. Hot on the tail of Geidi Primes comes Visions, ...

More gigs! I can only get to gigs when bands I like are playing, or when I notice that bands are playing, but I'm still trying to get out when I can. I really need to make more notes on the night or day after, though. I think I assumed ...

What the hell, 2012? It's August already and I haven't yet pushed out a first review of new music I'm listening to. Let's remedy that, better late than never, with the first batch of albums that have been added to my collection. Hopefully I can get the second and third ...

I'm still getting to gigs, still with mixed results. Here are my experiences from the first gigs of the year.
Wild Flag/Peggy Sue at Electric Ballroom
Peggy Sue play first, and though seem pretty good initially they start to wear on me as the set continues. I'm not sure why at first, ...

Not quite before the end of the first month of 2012, I present my last collection of music from 2011. There is plenty to like here but I am sure I put off writing these reviews because of not wanting to revisit one album in particular. Had I done this ...
