Concert Review: Bonnaroo 2008, Part 3
All good things must come to end, but what condition will we be in? Morning came pretty early on Day Three as the pointless musings of Ted and Alice’s dopey friend pulled me from Slumberland. She was going on about the Disco Biscuits show, which Fumo and I had skipped because we weren’t in any condition to start a show at 2am. However, the rest of her group had been there, so she wasn’t ...

Out of the Park
Pretty slim pickings in the clubs this week -- mostly thanks to the Winnipeg Folk Festival. But on the big stages? That's another story -- we're about to welcome some pretty big names from the realms of classic rock and hip-hop (and, uh, one classic rock-and-hip-hop hybrid).

In Tune with the Times
Few of us are lucky enough to look the same at 35 as we did at 20. So it's a bit unreasonable (not to mention equally unlikely) to expect the Winnipeg Folk Festival to survive 31/2 decades without going through its own share of growth spurts.

Baby Beats: Kid-friendly concerts introduce children to the world of music
I'm an advocate for building slowly toward exciting childhood experiences. For example, I look forward to sharing nine innings of baseball someday with my young niece Tarn, but realize we'll probably need to start by taking in just a few at-bats first.

Good excuse for a Party
Necktie Party's music has a soulful undertow, integrating enchanting harmonies and bluesy song stylings into a hypnotic mix. At its most soulful, especially when songstress Kate takes the lead on songs like "Lost and Found," the band can evoke the swirling emotional resonance of The Cowboy Junkies. Other songs, such as "We're All Waiting," have more of a pop edge to them, but the overall result ...
