It's been a long, long 3 weeks since I last went to see live music. Last night, I rectified the emptiness with a CD release show for Rocky Votolato's The Brag and Cuss at the Triple Door in Seattle.First, a couple of things about the venue. Some love it, some don't. I am of both schools of thought. The Triple Door is attached to Wild Ginger, a fabulous restaurant, and serves table side with...

I need to stop slacking with this MOG thing....here's a quick update.Went to see Rocky Votolato on March 28th in Hoboken, NJ. He put on a wonderful set. Me and my favorite show buddy got to chat with him a bit after the show. He is one of the nicest musicians I have met [The Format, and OK Go are pretty damn awesome too though..]We got our usual serious and silly photos with him, and his dru...

i think it's interesting that when i search for "mogs similar to me" not sorted by distance or ANYTHING, 2 of the top 3 are from virginia. one is even in harrisonburg, which was the site of my beer-infested apartment for two years. we had roaches, too, just not of the insect variety.so i went to my favorite record store in the area last week, and the owner made me listen to this band *Waxwing...

I enjoy having a really good album on continuous play in my head. It beats the hell out of being at the mercy of the dream jukebox, which mysteriously plugs my mind with tunes like "I'm your Venus, I'm your fire at your desire." It can be a little hard to shake, like waking up in a crappy mood that persists all day.I don't remember when or why I started listening to Rocky Votolato's "Makers" al...

I'm up too early. Damn you Shannon! We're supposed to get more snow, 1-3 inches, today. If this prevents me from seeing The Faint, I will no longer be excited about the snow. However, this presents the possibility of making snowmen/snowangels or having a snowball fight with The Faint. That would be the highlight of my month since as far as I know, I'm spending Christmas alone. I'm attempting to...

Other than this song, well, I'm pretty sure that Rocky's a little too boy band for me. Yeah, he's got one of those pretty boy voices. Not my style. I like it a little rough around the edges. The kind where you can hear real emotion, not some studio fabricated pain...the real kind; however, this song seems to hit the spot at times...like now.Anyone out there have any Rocky V...

I have had Rocky Votolato tickets for tonight for a couple of months. My husband was actually going to join me for this show...he usually stands me up and I take a friend. Well, guess what? He's stuck at work, and we aren't going. I am so very bummed. I think I'm just going to drink. At home. Alone.
