My First Concert Ever. Top Story - September 2023.
I went to my first concert ever last night, on 9/15/2023, to see my favorite band since 2017, Icon for Hire. I wanted to make going there extra special by getting the highest VIP package there is, the pre-show party. This includes going onto the tour bus and actually hanging out with Ariel, Shawn, and Flicka.

Hüsker Dü - "The Living End"
Searching, ever searching... Melodies soar, the guitars fuzz and buzz, and staccato drumbeats fire like miniature truth grenades onto the top of the listener's skull. Bob Mould holds forth with a middling plaintive growl, somewhere between a reasoned, cultured singer and someone pleading for the return of his soul from a very, very dark place, with enough harsh, abrasive tinge to his snotboy vocalizations to offset the bitterness and grief. But all of that is what you'd expect from a rock review, right?

Rifkin's Final Victim
Dave Rubinstein (a.k.a. "Dave Insurgent") was the lead singer of Eighties hardcore punk pioneers REAGAN YOUTH, a band that started in the hallways of Forrest Hills Highschool in Queens, where the Ramones hail from. Originally created by Rubinstein, a rebellious youth whose father fought in WW2 and whose mother survived Auschwitz, Dave started the band with his friend Dave Bukija (Dave Cripple), often getting a physics teacher to roadie for them. In time, they changed their original name, which was "Pus," to the more marketable (but no less offensive) REAGAN YOUTH. The name is meant as a satirical joke on the right-wing conservative policies of Ronald Reagan, and the Hitler Youth.

My Favourite Front Man: Honouring Steve Harwell
Today we wake to the news of 90s alt behemoth, and lead singer of Smashmouth ,Steve Harwell's untimely death. As I have talked about on these pages, I am a music nerd. I'll listen to anything once, and many things twice. A lot of things, several. I've played piano since I was a child, so the ear was prepped, but still, Smashmouth remains the most pleasing to the ear for decades, and true masters of the story song - genre jesters doing their thing on every single one of their tracks, whilst staying true to their 1960s, easy listening vibe, even incorporating ska and punk elements, with that 90s edge. To me, true pioneers.
