Your Farewell Rock – May 22nd, 2009

Old 97's - Time Bomb (Live on KEXP)
So, this is the end. I leave you with a high top fade, an old Coogi sweater, and some impeccable harmonies. And, if you'll follow me after the jump one more time, I'll leave with you my goodbyes. You hit play before you started reading this, right? DO IT. Ok, now pretend Coach Taylor is reading you these words. Folks, it has [...]

Your Morning Rock – May 21st, 2009

Guster - Happier - Live @ Easy Street Records
There have been a few kinda definitive YMR bands, and this is one of them. We'll get into a couple more of them tomorrow as we say goodbye. Break out the hankies then, but for now...

American Idol Results – The InterTubes Respond

American Idol Results – The InterTubes Respond Simon wanted to crown him, so America was going to crown Adam's [backside] tonight. And then the voting results came in. And then the commentary began... In a show that had the return of BEWBS, a plethora of jaunty hats (in multiple colors, no less), and Alexis Grace's return in thigh high Boots with a "Y'ALL MY PUSSY'S HANGING OUT" skirt (and bless her for that), the end game was all about the results. And yes - Kris Allen FTW. Surveying the response, it is... colorful. [...]

New Music Tuesday – May 19th, 2009

Iron and Wine (NEW SONG) Homeward These Shoes and Menelaus- We the Living
This has long been one of my favorite posts to write every week. I'm a former record store employee so I have a strange nostalgia for the excitement that Tuesday used to bring. I suppose it's not so exciting anymore in this day of online leaks and advance streaming, but I still tend to hold out and listen to the ones I really want to hear for the first time via the disc and not the computer. Once I found myself skipping this post with out much of an urge to get online and fix that mistake immediately, I realized [...]

The Hills – Season 5 Episode 8: Father of the Bride

Play Him Off, Keyboard Cat
We start out this week at Speidi's place. Heidi's dad, not her stepdad, her real dad Tim is coming in town. He's a 'real deal cowboy' and he's never met any of her boyfriends before. He was mad when they got fake married before. Heidi jokes that he'll probably be bringing his gun. Spencer is worried, rightfully so The White Tie Affair is shooting a video and Audrina and her coworker are there to help out. Audrina reminds us that the guitarist hit it off with Stephanie and Audrina thinks Chris the singer was [...]

Your Morning Announcement – May 18th, 2009

Sara Watkins
So, this has been coming for a long time, let's just get to it. This is gonna be the last week for good ol' DeadOn. Now now, hold back your tears, please. The time has come, and frankly, we know it might even be a little overdue. We're gonna take a little time to reflect over the next few days - one last Hills recap, one final trip around the Roundtable - and we'll have the expected overly sentimental post come Friday. I love you all a little too much, but we're all going down this [...]

Your Morning Rock – May 14th, 2009

Better Than Ezra - Absolutely Still
You've noticed a lack of YMR and NMT around here lately, haven't you? I'm not gonna lie to you. Work is really busy and blog time gets shorter by the week. We'll talk about it more in the coming weeks though. For now, here's a bit of the new Better Than Ezra album Paper Empire. Enjoy "Absolutely Still".

American Idol Roundtable – Final Four American Idol Roundtable – Top Three Performance Recap Performance Recap

Ben Harper and the Relentless 7 "Under Pressure" Live - The Mint Los Angeles, CA 12/5/08
Happy Monday - here's hoping we'll have a lovely week. I'm sick of the rain that's plagued May in the DC area.

The Quarter Pole: Maypril 2009

B.o.B - Generation Lost (HQ MUSIC VIDEO)
We're about a quarter some stretch of the way through 2009. And because I am a blogger and enjoy both creating arbitrary segments of time for my own writing purposes and the compilation of shamelessly subjective lists, I have (yet another) one of the latter for one of the former. Check the Quarter Pole archives for past editions, and click the jump to read this one. I'm burying the lede this time: My favorite songs are at the bottom of the page. [...]

Your Morning Rock – May 8th, 2009

ra ra riot - can you tell
Happy Friday, folks. I apologize for the lack of posts around here lately. Real life, ya know?

My Finale-Was Pretty Good For A Last Show

So maybe my bias is showing here. You know what? I don't think I care. That was a good ending. I never really expected it to be that emotional or that funny since, well, pretty much no series finale is like that. What I thought we'd get was just a good Scrubs episode (only an hour long) and that's what we got. So let's get to this last Scrubs recap, shall we? I was thinking for a couple of weeks now that I would do this recap a little differently. [...]

American Idol Roundtable - Final Four Performance Recap

The final four were given the theme of Rock (\m/) this week. Did they rock out, or fall flat? Join us after the jump to find out. JB* There is a whole lot of leather on our Top Four with rock week. On top of that, apparently we are getting duets this week for the first time this week. As another first, Slash is the mentor - and the mentoring is in a club. How did Alison get in? Also - is [...]

Your Morning Rock - Wednesday May 6th, 2009

Death Cab for Cutie-Bixby Canyon Bridge (Live From Seattle)
I'm going to see these guys tonight. Enjoy!

My Chief Concern-Was…Intere sting

I honestly don't know what to think about the second to last episode of Scrubs. It wasn't that funny nor was it that emotional. It was just a, as I call it, classic setup episode. But with that said I never find any of the episodes Zach Braff direct funny so who knows what the reason was? All I know is that it was a epi that was just...there and a bit all over the place. So let's just dive into the review and figure things out as we go. [...]
