Every so often, I will hear a song on WFPK that immediately catches my attention and becomes an obsession for a couple of days. A few examples: “Change” by Banks, “Since Last Wednesday” by Highasakite, and “Stolen Dance” by Milky Chance… you get the idea. Well, a few weeks ago, I heard “Gooey,” and immediately … More Entranced by Glass Animals
First let me say that I started writing this before I knew Brittany was writing her post about upcoming shows. I guess this shows how creepily in sync we are. I realize that it is not even technically winter yet, and not to wish away the next several months or anything (Happy Thanksgiving by the way!), … More Is it festival season yet??
We have both been sustaining members of WFPK since last year – it’s been one of the best decisions we’ve made since moving to town. The public media here in Louisville is spectacular and we are incredibly lucky to have it as a resource. Waterfront Wednesdays are monthly summer events that we cannot (and this year, … More 2014’s first Winter Wednesday: Charlie Mars & Alex Wright
Thank you, Justin Townes Earle. I am glad you came to visit Headliners last Friday night. Thank you, Headliners Music Hall, for the complimentary tickets from the Matt the Electrician & Justin Paul Lewis show the night before. Thank you, WFPK, for sponsoring this talented musician. I’m sorry, JTE, that you had to remind that man … More Our thanks, Justin Townes Earle
Monday night’s show was a long time coming… we had a needed break from the daily grind of school plus Fitz And The Tantrums were in town. (NB: This time, we assisted a friend in calling in to WFPK for tickets and with our magic influence, she got a pair to join us- apparently we’re … More Fitz And The Tantrums dance party
After a pretty intense weekend, including The Avett Brothers and meeting my long-time celebrity crush Steve-O at the Laughing Derby on Saturday, going back to work Monday was a doozie. Thankfully, Britt had gotten us tickets for another trip to The Palace for Foster the People. It did not have the same kind of anticipation … More Foster the People > Monday
Everyone knows that The Avett Brothers came to Louisville for a three night stay at The Palace, along with lots of hype and hoopla. I’m pretty sure no one was surprised when they lived up to all of it. My only regret was not jumping both feet in and getting tickets for all three nights. … More My Evening with Avett
Do502 is a brand new Louisville social website that lists the daily happenings around town from comedy, to karaoke, to live music and pretty much everything in between. The founder happens to be a member of the workout boot camp that we attend, and when he asked if anyone wanted free tickets to Little Dragon … More Taking it back to the beginning with Little Dragon
Today I used music and an upcoming concert to keep myself sane while my students struggled through a lab on physical and chemical change. Thank you in advance to The Avett Brothers for tomorrow night’s show… and for helping me not throw something today. -Aubrey
The last event of the birthday concert celebration week was St. Lucia at Headliners. I saw St. Lucia briefly under the bridge on the Red Bull stage at Forecastle, and although I didn’t catch their entire set (had to head over to Gary Clark Jr) it was one of the most memorable acts of the … More Birthday Part III- St. Lucia
