    Loretta – Steve Earle Amazon.com Widgets Steve Earle has made it clear over the years what a huge influence Townes Van Zandt has been in him. He even named one of his kids after him. Last year Earle released an entire album of Van Zandt cover songs. It is a great way to get familiar [...]
  2. I Prefer Fish Not Phish - In the very near future you will be hearing a new voice on Rock Minutes. His name is Josh Hause and you will be learning more about him when the time is right.

  3. My 20th High School Reunion - My 20th high school reunion is coming up this week, and it got me thinking about high school and the music of my generation.

  8. RM Shuffle for August 12, 2010 - Big Head Todd and the Monsters – Broken Hearted Savior Amazon.com Widgets I am hot and cold with this band.

A venue that holds close to 18,000 fans….and once again KISS started at go; with fantastic-fury and ended the rock-train trip at bombastic bedlam… and blew the asses off the crowd from beginning to end and all places in-between. As most of my readers [...]
