 1/13/2012 5:00:00 PM: Ah, a brand new year and some brand new music to kick it off right. This is not to say that I don't enjoy the "... Returns" shows, but it really is nice to get some new blood on the show again, since that's what we're about here. Ryan M. Brewer is a recurring face and voice at the Wednesday Night Open Mic Night where I often scout for guests, since it's often difficult to meet and talk to bands at the bigger venes, especially while the next band is playing. I first ca ... ( more)  12/23/2011 5:00:00 PM: My Christmas present to myself: the show I've been wanting to do for six years now. When I think back on 105 episodes of this little hobby of mine, most of what I remember is from the early shows -- back before things became "routine" and it took me a lot longer to organize, set up, and edit these shows together. Lets face it, I didn't know what I was doing for the first year of this. Actually, many would say I still don't know, but at least now I've got a consistent ... ( more)  12/16/2011 5:00:00 PM: Let this be a lesson to all of my musician friends, and anybody who asks me for an opinion about music. I am mostly-incapable of doing reviews, critiques, or criticisms of music. I wish I could, but in case you haven't noticed by now, I love music and cant for the of me offer a negative opinion about anybody's songs, or say anything disparaging about anybody that puts their heart and soul into a composition -- therefore I wouldn't begin to call anything I write a "review."& ...

The Historic Vollrath Tavern was in operation at its
original location since she first opened her doors in 1926 until her final
night of operation on October 29th of 2011.
During the
prohibition era at it's inception, The Vollrath was a “café” that actually
served as a “speakeasy” [until congress repealed the 18th amendment with the
21st amendment rendering the original Volstead act unconstitutional in December

Sure, the music isn't exactly mainstream, but it isn't so far off the beaten path that it's inaccessible. Their talents as musicians and composers (I'll use that word here in lieu of something as simplistic as "songwriters") is not in question. Their production skills show imagination and creativity, and their ability to try new approaches and incorporate new styles into their music is certainly an asse ...

Excellent, new day job (FINALLY), couple of new projects in the works (more on those later), and just getting lined up for the kickoff of the second century of Indy In-Tune shows, featuring some big names, some great underground talent, and the return of a few of old friends.
Speaking of old friends, we're going to kick things off by revisiting a fan favorite, Mr. Jason Wells, who first appeared on the ...

Just for hard core fans, those of you who ever wondered why it takes me so long to put out episodes after they are recorded, or the one or two of you who listened to the "Official Version" of Show #100 and really wanted to hear more. Here then is what I would normally consider the "fi ... ( more) |
