Adventures in music, media, and magic. Wednesday, February 11, 2009. Two bands you'll hear more from in 2009.

And if things continue to fall into place for these bands the way they have been, then you're likely to hear a whole lot more about them this year. The Los Angeles-based quartet will be opening for none other than Morrissey. For a selection of his East ...

http://karinamack.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
Adventures in music, media, and magic. Tuesday, June 24, 2008. MMJ and other things that Make Me Proud. I won't try to hide the fact that I have thrown myself on the altar- I'm an MMJ. Disciple.

It seems I naively thought it went unquestioned, but I have recently learned that many question the depth with which Clapton plays "White Man's Blues".
