Dweezil Zappa – Interview – Xperience History, by Dick Beach. RRX: Thanks for joining us. I want to start at the very beginning. Having done some research, it was fascinating that when you were born, the hospital would not let you have your name, which I thought pretty interesting. But then, when I found […]
New York City Wine and Food Festival 2023: a look in Three parts – by Dick Beach. Part 3 A decidedly different event all around. The Drag Brunch hosted by Lea DeLaria was far less about food and more about the show. Held in The Venue at the Hard Rock Hotel, this was certainly entertaining. […]
New York City Wine and Food Festival 2023, Landmarc – a look in Three parts – by Dick Beach. Part 2 What a departure from the event of last evening. Today (Oct 14) we chose to attend a smaller event at the Landmarc location on the lower west side of the city. Dine and Demo […]
New York City Wine and Food Festival 2023, Ginny’s Supper Club, a look in three parts – by Dick Beach. Part 1 This is decidedly not a review. Nor is it designed to be comprehensive – jut a look at one of the largest food events in the country through the eyes of a one […]
Open Mic at Ashford and Simpson’s Sugar Bar An Evening in NYC by Dick Beach Once upon a time, a young man purchased a double album titled Ashford and Simpson Live. Just the manner in which the announcer said “Ladies and Gentlemen – ASHford and SIMPson!” let you know it was a treat. Fast forward […]
Editor’s Note: We’ve had many great interviews in the past when we still had our “new car smell.” The following interview of Dweezil Zappa appeared in the April 2020 issue, which was the only purely-digital issue we’ve had. Enjoy. Having taken up the mantel of honoring and presenting his father Frank’s music, Dweezil Zappa has […]
Pat Metheny at Troy Music Hall. On a lovely fall evening, it seemed appropriate to hit the wayback machine. Things have changed over the 30 plus years since last I’d seen Pat Metheny. We’ve all gotten older, perhaps put on a couple pounds and gone grey. All these things can likely be said about Pat. […]
Ben Bailey at the Cohoes Music Hall. Ben Bailey is a big (like tall and big) man. He is also a very funny man. Most folks know him from Cash Cab – which ran for 15 years and is still a staple in the land of re-runs. Being funny and keeping a hack license in […]
Since 1974, The Stone Pony has been the anchor of the music scene in Asbury Park, NJ. As noted previously by this author, Bruce, Little Steven and Southside are good friends. And on this past Saturday Night of Labor Day Weekend, it was, indeed, the center of the music universe as far as the Jersey […]
Tower of Power Review. What kind of band do you think would have players nicknamed MiMi, Iron Mike, Triple Threat, Big Love and The Funky Doctor? Well, if you guessed the Mighty Might Tower of Power you either know who they are or read the title (which camp are you in). For the uninitiated, Tower […]
