Dr. Dog Celebrates Brooklyn Saturday Night



As I sit here watching the clock creep towards 5 o'clock, I can't help get excited for Dr. Dog Saturday night in Prospect Park. This is a part of the summer series "Celebrate Brooklyn", and the show is free (although they would surely appreciate a small donation at the gate). Check out this site for details. The Bandshell entrance is at Prospect Park West and 9th Street in Park Slope. So if you are in Brooklyn Saturday night and want to hear some good summertime tunes, for FREE, head over to the park. Below is a live performance of "The Rabbit, The Bat, and The Reindeer" from their latest record Fate to get you excited as well. See you at the park.

R.I.P. Michael




Let us never forget all the good times your tunes have brought us all over the years, and will continue to bring forever. As someone who can be pretty picky with my music, MJ has always been a choice everyone can agree on.

On Jamaica Ave!

I love this song. It is extremely stupid, yet I love it.

Dinosaur Jr. Still At It



Hello people. This is my first post on my first blog, and what better way to start than to talk about one of my all time favorite bands, Dinosaur Jr. They released their latest record, Farm, today. I waited for it to officially drop today to listen to it, and it was well worth the wait. Like fellow indie rock legends Sonic Youth (who also released a dope album this month), D Jr. still rock and make relevant music after all these years. I highly recommend going to your local independent record store (or iTunes, I guess) and picking this album up. Also, they will bring their face-melting live show to Central Park's Summer Stage, for FREE, August 16 (http://www.brooklynvegan.com/archives/2009/05/dinosaur_jr_ret.html). Below is a link to their killer music video for "Over It", which features the band doing some sweet tricks. Enjoy!
