The Tim Misny Rap Video-Yes, it’s real
Saw this little gem over at Cleveland Scene’s website, and I thought it was fitting to share it with my fellow Clevelanders. Everybody knows who Tim Misny is. And if you don’t, you must not watch television. Apparently he’s so popular, some people made a rap song about it. It’s called Make Em’ Pay. Well, it … Read more
Tenacious D to release ‘Rize of the Fenix’ in May
In their movie “The Pick of Destiny,” just before Tenacious D is about to hit open mic night, the duo is asked if they have any new material. With the devil’s pick in hand, Jack Black matter-of-factly responds, “What we’ve got’s gonna turn your brain to shit.” That’s the very first thought that crossed my … Read more

That’s right, Bassnectar is back again with a new full album, VaVa Voov dropping on April 10. To be fair, this dude never exactly disappeared.

Girl Talk at Cleveland Public Hall SOLD OUT!
So if you were smart like Kyle and I, you copped your tickets early. My guess is this show is seeing a lot of publicity since it’s in asssociation with the Rock Hall. But also, DJs, or whatever you want to call Gillis, are on the rise. There’s no doubt this will be a huge … Read more
March 22 Song(s) of the Day: DJ Abilities releases new mixtape (free download)
DJ Abilities surprised me with a new mix two weeks ago, and I feel compelled to share it with you. I was surprised for a few reasons: One, the only other solo work he’s released is about 12 years old, and two, because I wasn’t exactly sure what he’d be doing after his counterpart MC Eyedea passed … Read more

Enough with the fake encores
Cleveland, get ready. The Black Keys are in town tonight with an arena show that will most certainly floor the audience in attendance at The Q with a jaw-dropping live set.
