October 28, 2007 | 3 Comments
Dear Rock Class Diary,
So the show was less than spectacular, as Adrian ended up being the opening “band”, and having to play a really short set on someone else’s guitar. He used his looping pedal for most of the guitar parts and sang from a notebook of things he had written on the train. It [...]

I think we are on our way to deciding what our class project will be, which is a good second step. The first step was deciding to start talking about the project, which eventually did happen. I am still up for doing a project about doing a project that no one actually knows what [...]

The New Yorker, “How indie rock lost its soul”
October 20, 2007 | 2 Comments
I stumbled on an article written by The New Yorker’s pop music columnist, Sasha Frere-Jones, titled “A Paler Shade of White: How indie rock lost its soul.” It goes on to proclaim the latest in indie rock to lack “swing, some empty space and palpable bass frequencies”. Basically, it is not “black enough”. It [...]

Dear Rock-and-Roll Diary,
So we have to do a final web project in the rockpopsoulprog class. I am really interested in seeing what we all decide on, but I am a little nervous about us actually deciding on something. Please, no more Beatles. I guess we’ll figure some things out next week when Professor Campbell leaves [...]

Kinks/Mt Eerie show/Radiohead In Rainbows
October 7, 2007 | 1 Comment
I’ve been listening to “Victoria” by the Kinks on repeat for my presentation on Monday. The song is catchy as hell and man, hell can sure be catchy. I remember their “Picture Book” song being pounded in my head a few years back in some commercial (maybe polaroid?). It may have been the advert with [...]

I came to Mary Washington in hopes that the radio station would be back up and broadcasting. And it is… it’s just over the internet. I’m actually happy about this. It’ll allow my friends that are spread out across the country, maybe the world, to be able to listen to my show. I’m excited to [...]
