Grrr. That's what I have to say. Grrr. How was the band? They were awesome. Incredible. If you've ever seen them then you know the power, emotion and energy they can put into a show, and last night was no exception. From the opening sounds to the final moments (ending with "The Only Time We Were Alone," my pick for Best Closing Song Ever) they were flawless.The problem? The audience. Th...

The good part is, we had a lovely wedding day and honeymoon...the bad part is the ensuing separation... Robin and I were married in my home town before a small group of family and friends on June 27. Thought you would like the photo of our cake which mystified our guests and everyone who has seen the photo since, except, of course, you Moggers! But as music fans, I am sure your real question...

woo hoo!So, we get very few bands of worth here in Charleston, being pretty much out of the way of any major city or venue. That being said, I'm pretty freakin' stoked these guys are coming right here to my front door, so to speak. I saw them a year ago and it was just about the most amazing thing I ever saw. Don't believe me? "THIS":http://mog.com/Groon/blog_post/51563 is my review of that...

No drugs are needed to see the visuals and meanings this song gives me. Will you place Your Hand in Mine and see where this song brings us?

Just got back from the EITS show the other day, and this is the first chance I’ve had to post about it. If you’re not familiar with Explosions in the Sky, let me just say you’re missing out on some of the most incredible instrumental rock that has ever been created. If you are familiar with them, then most likely you’ve already become a fan—their music is that amazing. Well, I was abl

Explosions In The Sky were sad when they were forced to cancel their European tour this summer due to illness in the family. Even though it would be impossible to recapture all the epic summer festivals, the band is in the process of lining up shows starting with the UK in January 2008. EITS promise that there will be more Euro-dates announced as soon as they are confirmed. As for the rest o...

Wow. It's been well over a month since I posted. Where's the time gone?It's good to be back though. Anyway....So in my last post that was all about me, I mentioned that if I could have a song that was the soundtrack to me life it would be "Achilles' Last Stand" by Led Zeppelin. Well, unfortunately I am a fickle human being with little control over my ever-changing tastes. This is true in b...

Said by my friend Aaron when we went to see them last year. It kind of jolted me when he said it. For some reason, I never thought of the band name as referring to fireworks whatsoever.I was thinking about September 11 and the particular association one could make with airplanes and buildings falling out of the sky, as well as non-man-made things like stars and sunlight. The sun, exploding into th

(...in the year 2000!)"_*How Strange, Innocence* was our first attempt at an album. We recorded it in January 2000 in Austin: recording took two days, mixing one day, mastering one day. Altogether we pressed 300 CD-R copies of this album...We had been a band about seven months when we recorded these songs. A lot of feelings (excitement/confusion/glimpses of visions/waking dreams/inability to pl...
