Well enjoyed the New Pornographers show, but now it is Comfest weekend and living just a block from the park allows me to retreat to my air conditioned residence if I need a break. Rather then just the Offramp, looks like I will be spending sometime at the Bozo stage. I don't know if this is their attempt to tone it down a bit, since...

back from The New Pornographers show and The Rossi. It was good to see the Duchess and the Duke open up, even if it was a short set. The Dodos weren't bad, but a mixed bag. Enjoyed seeing the Pornographers again with Neko Case. The one guy would only come out for his songs and kept getting progressively trashed. Next big show isn't until after...

Saw Owen Pallett at the Wexner earlier this week and live sounds better than his albums. Last night I saw Kick Ass and enjoyed it. I guess tea party types are up in arms over how little girl talk, etc. I thought she and Nicolas Cage stole the show. The part in the diner where she messes with his head about wanting a puppy was...

Well last Thursday I was invited to a private screening of The Runaways film. It was kind of weird seeing it in a fairly empty theater with just movie critics. Saturday was a busy Short North Gallery Hop with the better weather. Monday I saw The xx at the Wexner and really enjoyed that show. The opener jj ended up being a disappointed since it...

I was invited and got to see The Runaways film at the Gateway Theater on campus. Must have been mostly critics invited since they asked if I was one (i was just invited) and one after the film asked my thoughts on the film.

The Rossi was good with an update menu and still packed on a snowy, windy night.

St. Vincent show was canceled so ended up at Columbus Brewing Company and Tip Top later on.

I went to the Rossi last night hanging out with friends and neighbors and they have a new updated menu. Going to check out the new Outland location tonight.

Well no concerts to report, but what is making me happy is that I finally have power back on at my place after it going out like everyone else's Sunday afternoon. Now if it just stays on, I will be happy. But may have to pitch some of the food in the frig, but the beer and bottled water should be okay wants the frig...

Well I enjoyed seeing the Duke Spirit at the Basement and yesterday, the Short North's Art al Fresco was a lot of fun that seemed to rival Gallery Hop for attendance. Anna and the Androids seemed to draw the most people at G & Co while musicians and artists were plying their trades up and down High Street. A friend of mine made a lifelike...

Well it's August already, of course late June and early July were busy with Comfest, Tom Waits, Here Comes Your Weekend Blowout and DooDah Parade. Mostly local shows and I picked to go to She & Him on Monday since I didn't think I could get off work early enough to go to Radiohead in Cleveland. The next show I would like to go to...

Well, another Comfest is upon us and I still live close to Goodale Park so you will see me around alot, but sometimes escaping to my air conditioned place. But most times I will be at the Off Ramp stage except Saturday night when I go to see Tom Waits at the Ohio Theatre.
