We’ve been enjoying Dead Meadow since we gave Old Growth the Tuesday’s Gold treatment. They take the stage at the High Noon Saloon on Monday, May 5th for what has all the makings of a great night: Free Pizza, $1.50 PBR, the High Noon’s 4th Birthday, and some present day rock and roll.

Dead Meadow :: Ticket & Album Giveaway
Milwaukee Concert Announcement: Steve Earle
Remember how great the baseball loving Steve Earle was at the Barrymore Theatre recently? I realize the year is young, but thus far it was definitely the show of the year for me.
The Pabst Theater continues to bring quality live performances to Milwaukee with the recent addition of Steve Earle and Allison Moorer to [...]
Video: The Avett Brothers – “Paranoia In B Flat Major”
Last weekend was rather lazy/relaxing for us here at MoB HQ. Plenty of time to spin our collection of records from The Avett Brothers and devour their live performances via youtube. Below is the official video from last year’s fantastic and MoB approved Emotionalism:
The Avett Brothers – “Paranoia In B Flat Major”

The Explorers Club :: Freedom Wind
Did it really snow yesterday? I’m so done with that shit. Time for sunny skies, vodka spiked fruit juice, and harmony infused music. Have you heard the new record from The Beach Boys The Explorers Club called Freedom Wind?
The album starts out with staggering similarities to The Beach Boys before yielding to [...]

Review: Blueheels – Majestic Theatre, Madison
Last night was a long time coming. I’d been bombarded by friends and complete strangers about the greatness that is the Blueheels. Alas, our paths never crossed in person until last night at the Majestic Theatre for the band’s release party for Lessons In Sunday Driving.
The crowd was filled up with die hard [...]
Review: Ladyhawk – Club 770, Madison
We were still nursing our SXSW inflicted wounds the last time Ladyhawk swung through town to play the High Noon Saloon. Prior to that we caught the group at the same venue behind their self-titled and MoB approved record, cementing the bands as one of our favorites both on record and in a live [...]
Can we talk about the draft? Brian Brohm is a Packer!
I tend to keep a narrow focus on this site, but watching the Green Bay Packers draft Brian Brohm (QB, Louisville) in the second round just about made my day. With Favre retired and Rogers durability questionable, I have to say that I’m glad the Packers didn’t pass up the opportunity to get an [...]

April 29th is the official drop date for this delicious new pop record, and as you can probably tell, I’m pretty excited. [...]

Madison Concert Announcement: Lyle Lovett
A few years back I wondered into a Lyle Lovett concert at the Crystal Grand Theatre in Wisconsin Dells knowing only a sliver of his catalog. For over an hour I sat by myself in the balcony, instantly won over, hoping that I’d one day have another opportunity to see such a performance.
Lucky for [...]
Review: Atmosphere – Metro, Chicago
Dear Slug,
I have been wracking my tongue tied brain all day, trying to think of the best way to write a review for what you did last night. I just can’t do it, nothing I write seems to work. So I’m just gonna tell it to you straight. How to give you, Ant and [...]
Video: Radiohead – “House of Cards” (Conan O’Brien)
I set my alarm clock to catch the performance below live, fully realizing that it was pre-recorded and that it would be waiting for me on the internet upon waking today – I’m just that big of a fan of these guys. Since we already showed you their first performance on Conan O’Brien (“Creep”) [...]
