With a song, Reverend Billy and his First Church of Stop Shopping choir introduced the film “On Coal River”. Their gospel style was fitting for the film and I, as a West Virginian, truly appreciated their support of this film and this cause. As we say at karaoke, “These kids got pipes.” This was shot [...]

Whilst taking a break from the awesomeness that is Bonerama (and Mike Mills of REM none the less) I ran into Jack DeYoung of Grooveshark outside of the Rock and Roll Hotel on Monday night. He was in town for the Future of Music Summit and gave me a few moments of his time to [...]

@FierceKitty plucked Jonny Goldstein and I from our hotel room to escort her to the Speakeasy for a show featuring Datarock and Kid Sister. I didn’t know what to expect as I hadn’t heard either, but Kid Sister blew the top off the place. A breif interlude of Jump Around (it was Saint Patty’s Day) [...]
