There's a huge range of Velvet Underground material, so you can imagine our uncertanty as they took the stage on Saturday. Would it be the hits? Would it be their crazier, longer material that began to hint at the madness Lou Reed would later do in his solo career? It was actually a bit of [...]

Not saying this show will save everything and make it all better, but it's something you can do to show your support for not only ear [...]

Somebody has been watching too much of Jim Henson's The Storyteller . That or Jeff Dunham.
He fronts and motors Wax Fang, a three-piece, Louisville-based guitarmy that we (and My Morning Jacket's Jim James) count as one of our favorite rock bands right now. He's playing "Avant Guardian Angel," an instrumental highlight from 2008's La La Land , at WRFL, the student-run station at the University of Kentucky in Lexington. Check out two more La La Land cuts after the jump. Please.
