First off, I have to admit that I’ve never actually been to a New Standards Holiday Show. Usually there’s always some other event that I’m taking photos at the same weekend. I do get to hear all the praise bestowed upon it from friends that attend and I admit a bit of jealousy. Sometimes we [...]

Our good buddy, friend, confidant, associate, chum, pal, music-scenester & all around talented dude Dan Huiting put Minneapolis on the map again with all those little hipster kiddos who read the P-fork on a daily basis. DH brought along his kick-ass pals MPLS.tv and their series City Of Music, which has been something we’ve been [...]

When I was a kid my dad and I would drive around listening to The Beach Boys. A lot. He loved “Good Vibrations” the best and I grew to love their music through him. One of my first cassette tapes was a Greatest Hits comp my dad gave me for my birthday along with one [...]

October 1st, 2011 By: Jeff Rocktober in Minneapolis got rolling at the Triple Rock with one of the more highly anticipated shows of the month for small club indie rock: Besnard Lakes & Malajube.

I was [...]

So who doesn’t think a weekend in Wisconsin seeing bands like The Flaming Lips, DeVotchka, Delta Spirit and local loves like The Goondas, Roma di Luna, Heiruspecs & a whole bunch more wouldn’t be amazing? Better yet, wouldn’t it be even more awesome if it were FREE?  Yeah, that’s what we thought.  That’s why Cake [...]

Eddie Vedder already has an impressive repertoire of music out there. Everyone knows his band Pearl Jam, and the solo soundtrack Vedder did for 2007′s Into the Wild received kudos all around.  This time Vedder has embarked on an ambitious plan to base an entire album around one instrument: the ukulele. Yet somehow, it works. [...]

June 14, 2011 By Jeff_mcl When I moved into the dorms at college for my freshman year in 1985, I won the roommate lottery.  My new roommate was from Beaver Dam, WI, and came into the room, put down a boom box and hit play on a cassette tape from Husker Du, Flip Your Wig.  [...]
