  • Alex Liang Wong at Rockwood Music Hall Stage 2

    Alex Wong is someone I’ve written about so many times. Starting with this post, I’m going to do my best to never write about him again. The reason? Too many darned Alex Wong’s running around getting famous on the Internet. In order to stake out a defined spot, our Alex has chosen to […]

  • Paper Raincoat and Gregory Alan Isakov at Highline Ballroom

    Looking for a night of good music in NYC? Every night of the week will present difficult choices. Occasionally, those decisions achieve Solomonic proportions. Last night was one of those nights. I had Carley Tanchon and Joey Ryan in our calendar for quite a while. Carley was appearing at Rockwood Music Hall Stage […]

  • ambeR Rubarth and Ed Romanoff at a House Concert

    This was our second house concert on the upper west side of NYC. It’s a series called Music On 4 run by a wonderful couple who create a perfect atmosphere to enjoy live music. amber Rubarth is no stranger to us or to readers of this blog. I’ve written about her and The […]

  • The Paper Raincoat at Mercury Lounge

    Last night was our second time at Mercury Lounge. We went to see the same group that brought us there the first time, The Paper Raincoat. No matter how many times we see the same groups, each show has it’s own character, making it worth coming out for reasons other than simply supporting […]

  • Vienna Teng, Alex Wong and Joey Ryan at Highline Ballroom

    Last night was very special on many levels. At the top of the list was seeing Vienna Teng perform in NYC (at the Highline Ballroom) for the last time in a while (she’s off to grad school later this month!). Even though Vienna tours the US and Europe regularly, we have come to […]

  • The Paper Raincoat at Rockwood Music Hall Stage 2

    Q: What word describes the following situation? You’re old and exhausted and one of your favorite bands schedules a show at 6pm! A: Perfect! 🙂 That’s exactly what happened last night. The Paper Raincoat played a show at 6pm at Rockwood Music Hall Stage 2. The only worry in our minds (possibly in […]

  • Alex Wong at Caffe Vivaldi

    After seeing Alex Wong perform a cameo appearance at ambeR Rubarth’s Rockwood Music Hall show, we ran over to Caffe Vivaldi to catch Alex performing his own show! The last time we saw Alex he played mostly solo (Adam Levy joined him for a song or two). This time, Alex was supported by […]

  • ambeR Rubarth and Adam Levy at Rockwood Music Hall Stage 2

    Another night, another show at Rockwood Music Hall Stage 2, same old, same old. 🙂 This night featured a totally different type of music, but was similar in that we love this group of performers as did the rest of the crowd. The co-billed show was ambeR Rubarth (we love her solo, with […]

  • Alex Wong and Adam Levy at Rockwood

    Last night was a real treat for us. We got to see one of our favorite musicians perform his first solo show. We also caught the set before his, which was wonderful, and I’ll cover that as well. Alex Wong is an incredible talent, something I repeat very often (well deserved repetition). We […]

  • Paper Raincoat and Ian Axel at Mercury Lounge

    Lois and I go out of our way to avoid concerts where we have to stand throughout the show. That cuts out a number of top venues in NYC where that’s the norm. For most rules, there are some exceptions. Last night, knowing we would be standing, we still couldn’t imagine skipping The […]
