Last Thursday night I made sure to head down to Covington for the Okkervil River show for several reasons. First of which was that the band do not seem to play in Cincinnati (have they ever?) or at least have not in years. And in recent years, but appreciation of the band has […]

The third annual MusicNOW festival took place last week over at Memorial Hall here in Cincinnati, and it seems to have outdone itself once again. I was fortunate enough to be in attendance for each night of year 1 at the CAC, and all but one night of year 2 also at Memorial Hall. […]

If you recall we got a great live review of the Vampire Weekend a couple weeks ago that ended up vaulting the band into a SNL performance, is that next for Pomegranates? Maybe not but Caitlin was on the scene Monday night as the local indie poppers took the stage opening for Islands at […]

This weekend in Cincinnati was different for a few reasons, the most obvious of which was the massive snow dump we received here, in March no less. Most areas around the tri-state got at least a foot of snow, with some getting much more. Needless to say, this kept many people at […]

To say it has been a interesting journey for Band Of Horses over the past couple of years might be a bit of an understatement. The group that is not shy about change has made quite a few through their short history which begins with some help from their friend Sam Beam (Iron & […]

I feel like I go to less and less concerts every year. And still, I go to way more than I deserve to probably. I was browsing around the music blogosphere today and saw some damned impressive best concerts listings and debated whether or not I would even throw my hat into that […]

The Mountain Goats - Live @ Madhatter

November 14, 2007 | 6 Comments

I mentioned before that it has been a dry season for live music around here of late so it felt good to hit up the Madhatter in Covington last night for the Bowerbirds and The Mountain Goats. As strange as this may sound to some of you, The Mountain Goats were on a shortlist […]
