As many things do any more, it all started with a tweet. Around the time that Dawes played the "Barn on the Fourth" show in Maquoketa, IA at Codfish Hollow in 2010, Adam Duritz of the Counting Crows tweeted that he wanted to play in a barn. Last month it was announced that Counting Crows would be performing in Cedar Rapids as part of their RAGBRAI event . At that time, I speculated that it would have been a good time to do a Daytrotter Barnstormer show and mentioned it to Tiffany Biehl [...]

SxSW 2012 Day 1 And It Begins...

Happy Birthday to Warren Zevon, whose graveled voice I never truly appreciated until his final album was released just before his death in 2003. Known for his pithy, sardonic wit in song and social commentary - enjoy every sandwich , his oft-quoted insight on dying which would later become the title for the first of two posthumous tribute albums, is a terse encapsulation of that observational mastery which shines through his back catalog - the man who released just twelve studio albums in 35 years was nonetheless a respected mainstay of the rock circuit, celebrated by his [...]

.......And we're back! Ric Ocasek and Co. has served as inspiration/mentor for many bands out there. Many of which have tried to replicate the nerd rock giants and falling short. One of my favorite things about the Cars was their videos. Back in the day when MTV played videos, I would wait for hours on end to catch " You Might Think " for two simple reasons. I was in love with the model in the video and seeing Ric Ocasek's head superimposed on a fly's body made my day. In my head, I always [...]
