TWO FREE TICKETS TO TEENAGE FANCLUB AT FIRST AVE!
You heard me right... I have two tickets for the Fannies Oct 7, for the first person who speaks for them. I have to go out of town so I can't use them, and will be seeing them the night before in Chicago. Drop me a line here on RRT to get 'em!

I would venture that if you missed the Jeremy Messersmith gig Saturday at First Ave, you missed one of the best local gigs of the year. Seriously beautiful stuff... If you are into the Bros Wilson, Hollies, Elliott Smith, etc., go buy now.

Anybody else go?

I totally met Michael Nesmith and I didn't pass out

So Mike Nesmith. Yeah. WTF, right? Private, reclusive, mysterious for many years. A couple of years back, he got on Facebook and he posts long, winding tales about himself, his dogs, his home, his past, and a really lovely Mother's Day post last weekend. Photos go up. The whole thing. It's like he disappeared and then came back on his own terms. I didn't know how to take it. I'm a huge Monkees fan, no doubt. And, being a woman/girl of a certain age, I have a favorite and that favorite is Mike.…See More
