My Levi’s Vintage Sundays Review

DSC_9165

Southern Gypsey Queen and Jack Hammer played Tings ‘n Times on Sunday.

There’s very little you can say about Jack Hammer without using superlatives. I’ve had the privilege of watching them play on more than a few occasions, and this gig proved to be as brilliant, as inspiring, as any before. But this time it was Jack Hammer with a twist. Greg Georgiades was dropped into the mix, but the fit was like slipping on a trusty pair of old 501s after you’ve been sweating a dress suit at an unknown relative’s morning summer wedding.

Go read the review. Now, dammit!

A Heroes Welcome [While Networks Fall]

"Heroes" TV Series Logo

The much anticipated screening of the first two episodes of the Season 3 of NBC’s Heroes takes place tonight. There is not a single person I’ve spoken to who has watched this show who does not absolutely love it, which makes me confident in sticking my neck out to say that these two episodes are about to become the new most downloaded content on the Internet, ever.

It’s a tragedy that the content producers haven’t figured out a fair way to distribute their content online and earn some income for such a brilliant show, but they dug the hole themselves so they just have to figure it out or die. Tomorrow morning, when the stats inevitably get passed around, there are bound to be some TV networks scratching their heads, drawing up new budgets and wiping tears from their eyes.

As far as the program itself goes, the way the previous season was abruptly cut off, mostly due to the writer’s strike, left many viewers confused and lost, so it will be interesting to see where the story travels from here.
I can’t wait.
