Were it not for the idea of a broken heart, many of rock 'n' roll's greatest love songs would be without a subject. Country music would have certainly never survived and the blues would refer to spending a Saturday afternoon at the laundromat with your Levi's. Thank goodness for the tortured souls who thought to pick up a guitar and air their dirty laundry. Read More »

The model/musician couple has been a tumultuous yet passionate pairing for decades. There’s a fine line though where many of these uber hip, hot couples take the partying too far.

But there’s something I can’t get past. It’s not that his voice irritates me, or that I think he’s undeserving of his Grammy awards. It’s not that the specific male pop singer/guitarist thing has never appealed to me (if a guy does pop, I’d prefer he was more straight up about it a la Justin Timberlake)—there’s just something about John Mayer’s overall person that annoys me beyond description. He seems arrogant, cocky and completely phony. Read More »- Let’s talk: Comment (738) | Blog

One fourth of the House of Boys is named Jay-rad, and he is a very goofy, very young, ridiculously talented kid. He plays guitar--but not to pick up chicks at open mics. He's in a band with another ridiculously talented kid who we love, and they've just added a drummer and a keyboard,... Read More »
