There was a time in high school, when I listened to a ton of Head East . As the years went by, it seems that time had kinda passed over Head East , which is a shame. At their best, Head East produced some of the catchiest, arena rock of the '70's, and for those who're interested in exploring their deep catalog, their 1975 debut is a beaut of a place to start.

I will hardly reveal myself as the music blogosphere's slightly less ugly version of Dr Phil when I observe that people recover from the end of serious relationships in very different ways.

"Check out Vince Neil ," I whispered to a friend. We giggled while signing for our room. I was in Omaha for my friends Brandan and Maggie's wedding. The reception was at the Comfort Inn. When the reception ended at midnight, we weren't finished [...]
