As in, I wonder whatever happened to The Oneders?And no, “That Thing You Do,” though an actual one hit wonder from the 90’s and one of the my favorite songs from the decade, will not be on my list. Considering that it’s original music from a film and is performed by a fictional band, I’m [...]
If you happen to be a Nada Surf fan then you must have heard of, or even own the Limited Edition discography vinyl box-set released last year. If you didn't know about it then shame on you, but not to worry as heres another chance to grab yourself a couple of Nada Surf gems.
April 14 marks the day when Nada Surf is scheduled to rerelease vinyl copies of The Proximity Effect, Let Go and The Weight is a Gift. All three albums have been out-of-print on vinyl for years and this gives fans who missed out on the vinyl box set released last year, another chance to own the three albums in vintage vinyl.Nada Surf is scheduled to play at the Bell House in Brooklyn on April 1...
But first, These are my TOP 10 'BEST' MUSIC CD's for 2008 (Part 1) (1.) TODD RUNDGREN - ARENA - 'Arena' proves Todd still has a lot of songwriting muscle and performance minded guitar chops. .... (2.) JEFF BECK - LIVE AT RONNIE SCOTT'S JAZZ CLUB - As impressive as any Jeff Beck fan would expect. …. (3.) STEVE WINWOOD - NINE LIVES - This is pop music with soul. Deeper and braver lyrically t.
The guys over at Barsuk Records and Nada Surf put together a contest for their new single Weightless. Fans of the band were told to make a video for the song and the winner would not only have their entry be the offical Weightless video but would also win $3000 cash.

Spent the weekend in Henderson, Nev., with the in-laws, which allowed ample time in the car - two-hour delay at Hoover Dam! - for some intimate time with the iPod. That meant revisiting some of this year's early releases, including Nada Surf's Lucky. I haven't seen Lucky on many year-end lists, which seems criminal. All [...]
Any one who listened to the radio at all in the mid to late nineties at least knows who Nada Surf is, but do you remember when you first actually dove into (if you haven’t yet, it’s ok, they’re still together and there is still time) Nada Surf? For me it was in 2003 when my little brother strongly recommended I get a copy of Let Go. When I got the album I laid down in the floor in m
Oh, sweet sweet nada surf. I've been looking forward to their new album, Lucky, since it was announced last year. Sometime during the fall, they announced two shows for Feb, one at Music Hall of Williamsburg, and the other at Bowery Ballroom. I decided on Williamsburg because of the homey feeling that the show would have, and told my friends about it, so they could decide if they wanted to go...
My critical faculties are temporarily out of service. They have been completely undone by the new Nada Surf album, Lucky.I think they wanted to tell you something about how you can really forget their annoying hit "Popular" of 12 years ago, and something else about how this is a better Teenage Fanclub record than Teenage Fanclub has ever recorded. (And both I and my critical faculties like Te...
After being on MOG for a while, I have noticed a few things that seem to make the masses come a posting. Call this a MOG posting for dummies if you will, but I think I know 10 ways to make your post numbers sky rocket. I will say I don’t know if they will help you get a Top Of All Time post, these are elusive, and I don’t know if anyone will ever crack into the top 10 with these hints. I would

Well. Hello friends. It's been some time since I've posted and I'm just certain you've missed me horribly. *Good News!* I'm back with prose and pix of my last couple of nights on the Seattle scene. :)So, without further ado....I give you Acoustic Nada Surf! The Seattle transplants tickled our ears on the 30th at the Triple Door, kicking off a short (but sweet) acoustic tour.I've seen MOGG...
