| | | Plenty of folk troubadours joke about living on the road, but David Wilcox really did it. He and his wife and their home-schooled son toured the country for close to two years in a biodiesel-fueled truck and Airstream trailer, an experience that inspired the husky-voiced Ohio songwriter’s latest, all-acoustic album, “Airstream.” Do they have RV hookups outside the Fitz?

It seems that Steve Fossett died an adventurer's death. During his 63 years on earth, he had sailed impossible voyages, broken records in hot-air balloons, swum the English Channel, climbed a few mountains, including the Matterhorn and Mount Kilimanjaro. Then, last September, while apparently looking for a site on which to make an attempt at the world land-speed record, he flew his plane into the...

We had quite a choice of gigs last Thursday and after planning to head down to the Night & Day for Broken Records we changed our minds, realising that we couldn’t pass up the chance to see Neil Halstead at Sacred Trinity Church. For starters, he tours rarely, whereas Broken Records are currently plugging away [...]

I like my electronica old school even if it is fake old school. Simon Mills plays gentle beats reminiscent of Bent’s lilting orchestral twiddling back when Bent were good. Layered on top, and with a crisp clarity that cries ‘look at me’, Eliza Wren Payne sings with the enthusiasm of a young girl who just [...]

It was the team's best finish in nearly six years.

With the year officially set to get underway on Oct. 11 when SDSU hosts Utah, the Aztecs are already attempting to build on last...

When the blizzards come in the winter in the snowier parts of the world, people become snow bound...forced by the cold to stay home where it is warm. During this past week, the heat has broken records around here in the North Bay near San Francisco, climbing each day near or past 100 degrees. Today we got out early and walked the dog and went to the hardware store, but once we got home I decided that...

I volunteered to write this review for a few reasons. Firstly, this was my first taste of the full Broken Records experience, my only other encounter with the band in a live environment being the Toad Session a few months back. Secondly, Matthew is currently up to his hips in a flood of digital media which [...]
