Barbarian Overlords Rocked the House of Blues Sunset 9/17/2012 I was first made aware of Brandon Kachel as he started gaining recognition for his drumming (and love for John Bonham) when he landed an appearance in a Bonzo tribute gig with The Moby Dicks.   Brandon is such a…

Hanging backstage with the Barbarian Overlords after their gig was quite enjoyable. It wasn’t so much an interview as it was just a normal, candid conversation caught on video. This band is definitely going places (a recap of their performance earlier in the evening). Here they are discussing…

This was the Eddie Trunk birthday episode.   Chickenfoot’s Sammy Hagar and Michael Anthony were the guests on the show.  Actually, Sammy was billed as “guest host”, so he served dual functions, I guess.  Needless to say, these guys are pretty hilarious and definitely know how to party! The…

  Blondie and Devo are two of my favorite bands from elementary school.    Their music and videos were way ahead of their time. I’ve seen both bands twice before and thought they were spectacular each time.  I first saw Blondie in 2006 opening up for The New Cars. …

This concert was pretty awesome.  Not too long ago, I was having lunch with my friend.   There was music playing in the restaurant.    My friend asked me if the song playing was by Sting.   I said if it was, then it’s the worst Sting song ever.  Not being…

Al rules.   I’ve seen him before in Ventura a few times, in Oxnard (probably the best Al show I’ve ever been to) and a few times in LA.  I even bought a luxury box for his show at the Greek about 5 years ago.   It was very worth…
