Oh, now, this is going to be just awesome! Girl Wreck is presenting two nights with Flipper. Although a legendary punk band in its own right, many remember the Bay-area outfit best for being immortalized by Kurt Cobain on an episode of MTV’s Unplugged, when the late Nirvana frontman wore…

Gotye. Name ring a bell? Surely you’ve heard the tune “Somebody I Used to Know,” or at least seen the video. The clip is all sorts of artsy, with the Aussie-by-way-of-Belgium singer and Kimbra, his collaborator, chilling in their birthday suits and then painted in time-lapse to blend in seamlessly…
Last month, Kris Sieger told us that future of Rockaway Tavern was up in the air, and that he was looking for potential investors and might even be up for selling the place. Looks like Sieger, who opened the bar in July 2010 with former 15th Street Tavern owner Myke…
Since the guys in Bad Weather California each have busy lives and work at different times, it’s hard enough for them to find time to get together for an hour to practice, let alone make a music video. That said, making grandiose videos was just out of the picture for…

Ah, yes, girls, we love them. Who doesn’t, right? Mötley Crüe wrote an entire song about them. Actually, so did Jay-Z, come to think of it. But we digress. Where were we again? Oh, right, girls, we love them. So you can only imagine the overwhelming sense of joy we…

By early June, Denver will long be in the rearview for the Black Keys dudes, who’ll play here on Monday, April 30. Too bad. It would’ve been sweet-ass sweet to witness a good old-fashioned battle royale for ultimate supremacy between them and the Nickelback dudes to settle this whole “rock…
