A myopic look at pop culture

The Blasters – Ithaca,NY 3/11/10

Random thoughts after seeing the Blasters at Castaways in Ithaca:
I first saw the Blasters ca. 1982 in Rochester, NY in a now legendary (at least in Western and Central NY) show at a tiny bar in Brighton that [...]




LEVON!!!

image

It’s pretty hard to put into words what an experience last night was.  A true legend came to Ithaca with perhaps the most talented array of players to ever grace the State Theatre stage.  Speaking about it does almost no good.  It was a sense of family that took over the room and engulfed the [...]




TALLY HO TALLY HALL!

Under-appreciated… yes, mind-blowing… definitely – All Hail Black Joe Lewis

Y’all shoulda been there. A travesty! BJL ruled the school… literally.

Simply Sondre

image

What a great show by Sondre Lerche and JBM last Saturday night. They fell in love with Ithaca and vice verse. Been waiting a long time for this one and it didn’t disappoint. Perhaps this year’s Rhett Miller? The fan fave?
See Angelina’s snaps below:




BROTHERLY LOVE

image

It takes a special touch to sport a cowboy hat in Ithaca during a snowstorm and not look like an idiot, but that’s the touch that Scott Avett had this past Friday at the State Theater. Returning for the third installment of their annual Ithaca wintertime show, The Avetts sold out the state for a [...]




A Magical Dance Party with Dan Deacon

THE CORNELL SUN REVIEW FOR NOW>>> AND PHOTO GALLERY BELOW…
The audience’s ears were ringing for hours on end, shirts drenched in sweat, and bodies sore from being crushed, yet seeing Dan Deacon made it all worth it. On Sunday night, the Baltimore native musician played at Castaways, with local DJs Glitter Monks and the quirky [...]




Dinosaur Jr. Unearthed!

image

Last Tuesday we kicked off 2010 in style with a sold out, straight forward rock show. Opener Kurt Vile and his band played some gnarly psych-rock blending in obscure sax and harmonica lines. Everyone was sporting long black hair and letting it flow. Check out the pics below for a rare glimpse of Kurt’s face [...]




Lyle Lovett Loves Us…

image

Wow. It’s taken a few days to recover from that amazing night last Wednesday. Lyle and the Large Band were amazing. I’ll link here to a great review rather than try and explain how phenomenal the show was.

Yes, we love St. Vincent and so does Ithaca

image

You’d think that with the huge amount of shows this fall Ithaca has to take a break eventually, right? Well, apparently not, as once again Castaways was filled to the seams Thursday night with concertgoers. The attraction this time around? St. Vincent. Taking a day off from their tour with Andrew Bird, the band made [...]
