Seattle Summer came & went…

Since our Seattle area weather was so crappy this summer, it was kind of hard to tell that it was indeed summer.  I had company, albeit GREAT company, all summer but am waaay behind in writing & posting.  My apologies.
Bumbershoot was the seriously Big Show at the end of this summer but the lineup, though […]

SWEDEN-BASED TRIO THE BELL’S “GREAT HEAT” DROPS APRIL 12, 2011

 
The Bells
Since I’ve been uber busy doing the many things I do, I’ve let the marketing division of Badman Recording Co. do the heavy lifting by totally lifting pretty much all they said about this band & their new record.  What I can and will say is that I get a sense of Oasis […]

Bumbershoot 2010 - 40th Anniversary

Though the weather wasn’t as summery as we all wished, it was nice enough but for the rain today.  The bands rocked & music filled the air and the artists totally did their thing. Just the way it’s supposed to be.
Bumbershoot outdid itself this time.  Until next year~

Gone Country? Blaine Larsen at Hard Rock Cafe, Seattle
