I’m a bit out of touch with pop culture and the movie scene. My wife and drove by a theater today and I hadn’t heard of a single movie that was playing. It comes as no surprise to myself that I also hadn’t heard of the movie Crazy Heart about a drunken, broke down country [...]

It’s Friday. Nothing of great interest happened. My head hurts and I’m all stuffy. I don’t want to write about any of this, nor do I feel like coming up with anything interesting. When this happens, I usually don’t make myself write, which lately has turned into not writing for several weeks. So dammit, even [...]

A couple notes: Because the Last.fm Top Albums chart is messed up (the same chart has repeated all month, and not even the new Lady Antebellum album showed up this week), I’ll be avoiding it until it’s fixed. Secondly, I’ve done a little tallying and have come up with the top artists of the month [...]

So, there I was remote controlling through the endless number of channels with nothing on when I happened upon the GAC channel – you know, country’s version of MTV. The last time I landed on the channel for more than a second, I was turned on to a talented up and comer by the name of Deric Ruttan , who should have gone on to be a huge solo star, but has since had to settle for co-writing...

Lucille Dickinson Ainsworth My mother passed away January 29, 2010. Since she hated to tell her age, I won't tell it either. Let's just say that she lived longer than the average person, but not as long as her father who made it to 100. Born during the Roaring Twenties, Momma was a child of the Great Depression and a young woman during World War II. She, like so many other women of that era, went to...

Fifty-one years ago today, a plane carrying Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and The Big Bopper crashed on route from Clear Lake, Iowa to Moorhead, Minnesota, during a brutal winter tour of the upper Midwest.
