Fuck Bush. This guy is class A idiot. Apparently he thinks he's helping uninsured children by vetoing a bill that puts 5 billion more dollars towards insuring them. His claim is that he wants to make sure that "the neediest children are taken care of first" before he signs anything. So you're helping them by denying them any help now. Um. What?

I just got a hold of a new track off of Jens Lekman's upcoming album that everyone needs to take their hard earned pennies and buy. This guy is a smile a minute. I got to see him at Pitchfork. Nothing but good times. I mean how you gonna listen to a song about bingo night and not get a little pep in your step? And yet there is no way you're going to find him on today's radio.

Somebody once asked what the best thing about the Nashville music scene is. It's a pretty crazy question considering how diverse the music scene is here. Everything from 12 types of country/western/swing/bluegrass, to an amazing symphony, to a thriving rock scene fuels the city. And really, the more the merrier. There's always a show to see. From The Don Kelley Band at Robert's, to Vivaldi at

Go to Grimey's and get the new Dungen album right now. If you're like me and grew up listening to old rock records, or like psychedelic music, or like shit that will blow your mind, do it. This Gustav Ejstes guy does it right. Nice room sounds on the drums, kick ass guitar freak-outs, fuzzy zoom bass, as well as pretty laid back tunes. It is all in Swedish, so you hear some crazy words, but it

East Nashville needs a new mid-sized venue badly. With as many artists and musicians (as well as many other show friendly people) living in the hood, it seems silly to have to drive across the river for a good 300-500 capacity venue. The 5 Spot rocks, but it's too small. The French Quarter smells bad and it's dank, not in a cool way either. Something along the lines of the Exit/In out here would

Recently I started archiving again, and transfered Paul Simon's "Still Crazy After All These Years". Even after a digital transfer, there is something about the way music sounds coming through a record player. I really noticed the reverb on the drums on "50 Ways To Leave Your Lover". The vocals seem to break up every once in a while, but it sounds great, I like it that way. My personal favorite

I got into Inara George's album All Rise about a couple of years ago, and whilst I was checking around to see who this magical voice was, I learned that she is the daughter of the late Lowell George. I had heard the name when people brought up Little Feat, but had never listened to his solo stuff. He put out only one album before he died in 1979 called Thanks, I'll Eat It Here. On that album

I've been getting deep into MPB for the past year. Man, I gotta say, Brazilians do not fuck around when it comes the music. I started with Astrud Gilberto, then Elis Regina, then Milton Nascimento, then Lo Borges, then Antonio Carlos Jobim, now I've recently heard some tracks by a modern act called Los Hermanos. I love it. The melodies and chord structures would make Burt Bacharach mess himself

OK, I get it now. I have to admit, I was skeptical of getting into T. Rex, then I heard "Diamond Meadows". Damn, I love this song. It's got a Lou Reed thing to it, but it sounds better. Damn it sounds good. I'll say it again. It sounds really good. Marc Bolan is the man. I used to love "Bang A Gong" when I was a kid, but never really liked what I heard recently when I tried to get into his stuff.

After reading the Tennessean report of Balsillie renewing his lease with a Hamilton, ON arena, this much is clear to me:Balsillie is going to try his hardest to move a team to Canada, that much is sure. He is on a Canadian holy mission. It didn't work with Pittsburgh, and it makes sense why he came for us next. I can't blame the man. Hockey is Canada's sport, and he has the resources to make this

I'm sitting here picking out the "bass line" to John Mayer's track "I Don't Trust Myself".... (before I go on further, any indie kids who are out there making rude gestures and puking noises can kiss my ass. I don't know if you can hear it, but the rhythm tracks on his new album make me mess myself. The drum sounds, bass tone, and general approach of less is more makes me smile. Thank you Willie,

Buried in the Tennessean is an update talking about the air quality in Nashville for tomorrow, and yet I believe that most people reading it either don't understand what they're reading or don't believe it.Bad air.The people in the laboratories are saying if you want to stay healthy, avoid going outside.

I just bought Arvo Part's Best of CD, and I must say, holy bejezuz, this stuff is amazing. My two favorite songs at the moment are "Summa for Choir" performed by the Vasari Singers, and "Fratres for Violin and Piano" performed by Tasmin Little (Violin) and Martin Roscoe (Piano). The album, sonically speaking, is breath taking, and the performances are really top notch. A fan of some somber

As a US citizen that feels that he is genuinely concerned about the war in Iraq, I can't help but wonder who the war is benefiting.Is the war benefiting America in the sense that it is making us, as well as the rest of the world, safer from Islamic radicalism? It seems that as the war drags on that our exit is going to be a little less glorified than the proponents had once expected. The birth of
