Due to the encroachment of bow-hunting season (in a county park yet!), the MB Geocache will be temporarily suspended. A deer stand was erected not twenty feet away from the cache. We don't want anybody getting an arrow in the head while looking for local music. So we'll find another spot for it, do some other promotion, or resume in the spring. The cache attracted about two-dozen visitors over the summer, about a fourth taking some local music with them. Thanks for playing - Mitch
The ad to the left appeared in the October issue of Blender magazine on page 52. It depicts a huge Viagra™ pill as a pictograph representing the various percentages of artists who are likely to get your parents hot (The Righteous Brothers beating out The Foo Fighters, Audioslave and The Killers by a landslide). The text at the bottom of the ad reads: 'Tons of Artists. Zillions of Songs. And oh yeah, it's free. Radio. Brought to you by America's 13,000 local radio stations that play artists like these every day.' This ad begs the question: In an era of "pod-safe" independent music, has commercial radio finally gone limp?

After a long haul of finding the right band members and writing all original material, Silent Aggression is finally playing a home town show. We've had a great response to some of the out of area shows, so we are expecting to see double or triple the draw of people that we are accustomed to. We have added a light show that should put this event over the top. Click "read more" below.
If you're still interested in the continuing adventures of Jack & Meg and The White Stripes , you should listen to Terry Gross' extensive interview on "Fresh Air" at the NPR website. Jack & Meg talk about their new record, their humble beginnings, and much more (45 minutes in all). Includes some song samples (including a cool duet with Loretta Lynne) and the admission that, in the beginning, the 'attitude in Detroit' didn't seem conducive to success in the music business. Go figure. Click "read more" for the the link.
