THE DOGS: A FREIGHT TRAIN COMING THROUGH THE CENTER OF MY BRAIN

Live: MC5 at The Button Factory Cancelled

Live: MC5 at The Button Factory Cancelled Sadly, rock veterans MC5 are suffering from the problems that come with old age, and have pulled out of their July 18th show at The Button Factory due to "health problems". At least they gave a reason unlike those confounded Sugababes (Babe my eye) who were due to support Boyzone a few weeks back. MC5 has also cancelled their Belfast date (the following night) as well as other shows on their European Tour. No rescheduled date has been confirmed.

My Big Album Review Strikes Again. The Green Hour Band: S/T

My Big Album Review Strikes Again. The Green Hour Band: S/T On their self-titled debut full-length [ buy ], Vancouver, Canada's The Green Hour Band blends all the best elements of psychedelia ( The Yardbirds , Syd Barrett-era Pink Floyd ), proto-punk ( The Stooges , The Velvet Underground ) and good old fashioned garage rock ( Captain Beefheart , MC5 ) into some of the best hyper-retro 60's revival that I've heard in a long while.

History: The Motor City Is Burning

One of the worst riots in American history began on July 23, 1967, at the corner of 12th Street and Clairmount on the west side of Detroit. At the time I was a one-year-old baby living on the east side of Detroit. Luckily for my family, the riot never made across town. Sparked by racial tensions, the "disturbance" lasted four days. Before it was over, National Guard tanks were rolling down the city streets, thousands of buildings were burned to the ground, and 43 people lost their lives. Read about it at here . Detroit [...]

Motor rollers

Motor rollers Just managed to catch a terrific show on the always-excellent BBC4, entitled Motor City's Burning . Unfortunately, it's now disappeared from the BBC's iPlayer (which is where I saw it after downloading it a couple of weeks ago), but these things usually get repeated ad infinitum, so keep an eye on the schedules and there's a good chance it'll turn up again. Tracing the history of Detroit's music over that fertile period from the early-1960s to the early-70s (i.e. from the inception of Motown to the last throes of Iggy and the [...]

Everyday is Like Sunday, Except for Blue Monday and Ruby Tuesday, and...Well, Friday I'm in Love: Weekly Mix #7

Everyday is Like Sunday, Except for Blue Monday and Ruby Tuesday, and...Well, Friday I'm in Love: Weekly Mix #7 Though it came and went in the blink of an eye, of all the musical movements, punk tends to live on in the imaginations of people. Just look at the number of documentaries, books, academic studies, magazine cover stories, compilation albums, and fashion aesthetics that still draw on punk. Whether it really was as revolutionary as it seemed, punk has definitely become iconic and continues to influence new bands with its sneering nihilism and DIY-learn-three-chords-and-for m-a-band approach. My personal connection to punk is one that actually started relatively later in life than for most. I was about [...]

Food, And How I Loathe It.

People tend to yell at me for a lot of reasons. Maybe it's a perceived condescension or pretentiousness in my writing (it's called entertainment , people). Maybe it's my general outlook on life. One commonality that everyone I know is irked by are my eating habits. Suddenly people are shocked when they hear I've never eaten a particular dish, or don't like the taste of some sweet-tasting condiment. It's not like it's something I have control over, people! Plus, most of the things we eat don't even make sense. They don't occur in nature. The idea of [...]

where it's going no one knows

where it's going no one knows I'm going to go out on a limb today and do something that could possibly a mistake. (Let me rephrase that: I know it's going to be a mistake.) Between Kevin's and Laura's and Mike's notes on the subject of blogging, I've been in a meta state of mind about what it is exactly I'm doing here. This whole operation has been an extended experiment in seat-of-my-pants flying from the get-go, with nothing really ever being planned past the frontiers of whatever whim or metaphorical shiny object that has [...]
