The inexplicable decision to record Thank You in the wake of a commercial resurgence continues to perplex me whenever I revisit it. What should have Thank You sounded like?

The Big Three
My list of bands/artists that I count among my favorites is probably pretty lengthy. Sometimes my husband and I sit on our back patio after a long weekend day of digging holes (I have another weekend of that coming) for apple trees and fence posts and listen to Sonos Radio (yep, it actually IS a… Continue reading The Big Three
Point of View – How do you listen to music?
I’ve been listening to a lot of new music lately. To do so, I use Spotify and, of course, Whooosh! Streaming serves a great purpose. We have access to a never-ending library of music, and it doesn’t take up any physical space beyond whatever device we’re listening on. It is convenient especially when I’m working… Continue reading Point of View – How do you listen to music?
The More We’re Different, the More We’re the Same
I’ve been listening to a lot of new music lately, thanks to my side gig with Jason doing The Encores Club, and Whooosh! with Simon and Katy. I’m far more up to date with what has been released, or what is due to come out. One of those new releases was The Killers album, Imploding… Continue reading The More We’re Different, the More We’re the Same
On The Radar – Erasure, The Killers and More!
A lot of new music came out on Friday so in-between revisiting Liberty on it’s 30 year anniversary, I’ve been spinning new albums from The Killers and Erasure for an upcoming episode of The Encores Club with Rhonda and a special guest the Duran Duran community will definitely know! I’ll spare you my thoughts on… Continue reading On The Radar – Erasure, The Killers and More!
The World We Live In
If you are easily triggered by details of sexual assault, I feel it necessary to suggest that perhaps you skip this one. This morning started with an earthquake. I didn’t really feel it, although I did wake up at the exact moment it hit – but I didn’t know until later on that it was… Continue reading The World We Live In
The Importance of Live Shows
I am moving super slowly today as I knew that I would. Yesterday, I went to Summerfest in Milwaukee with some friends. Summerfest, for those unfamiliar, is the “largest music festival” with a bunch of different stages and bands over an almost two week period. While it showcases a number of smaller, local bands, it… Continue reading The Importance of Live Shows
Thank You, You’re Welcome – Part One

Time Will Change the Picture
This has been a fascinating week and one filled with a few surprises that I’m still shaking my head over. One of those included the ticket sale surrounding the Killers show in Milwaukee as part of Summerfest on July 5th. Needless to say, it didn’t go as planned. Early in the week I received an… Continue reading Time Will Change the Picture
Don’t You Worry
Yesterday was apparently a very productive day for our guys as they met with Mark Ronson(you know who this is)…and Lykke Li (she is someone John has mentioned several times – check her out!)..AND Graham Coxon (Blur)…in a studio. DDHQ tweeted a photo or two using the #DD15 hashtag, and Mark Ronson mentioned it as well.
