Fruition is headed out on the road and they're effing top shelf Americana! If you can see them do so. They're on David Shaw's Volume.com live stream tomorrow along with The Revivalists! It's for a good cause so check Fruition out there or at these shows. I personally guarantee the goodness!

This review of The String Cheese Incident's run at Red Rocks Park and Amphitheatre last weekend is the longest, most in-depth thing I have written in years. Tons of photos, like an hour and a half or so of videos and an intensive look into the two night extravaganza! DIG IT!

"Ain't No Incident Like A String Cheese Incident!"

This video "Thank You" from Fuzz Collective guitarist Jeff Yasuda caught me off guard! It's not that I don't plenty of thanks from artists I work with...I'm blessed to be certain...it's that I think this is the first time I've had somebody go to their kitchen and jam as they thanked me for my efforts! Much appreciated kindness from a mad artist and band! (Article link in the comments)

Greensky Bluegrass is taking over last Minute at this year's after Susan Tedeschi and the Tedeschi Trucks Band had to pull out due to a band injury. Pretty solid move by the fest & them Greensky boys! Some TTB fans might be sad but show has gotta go on and Greensky will crush it as always!

The Rex-A-Vision: Zeitgeist Overload Monday Morning Playlist is up! YAY! And yes, I DO realize it's like 2:30 in the afternoon but at least this one is coming on the actual day! Small victories folks! This one is all about songs with people's "Names" in them, so obviously I had a LOT to choose from. I included 3o tunes and know am writing a lil blurb about why I love each tune before the videos for them so...stepping up that part now too!

A Rose By Any Other Name Would Still Rock You Like A Hurricane!

Ladies and gentlemen...I give you the two piece spicy chicken dinner box from Indies with wedges, roll and collard greens. The finest chicken in the state and they can make a solid case for "Best in the world!" I don't go big often but life is short!

Billy Strings is back baby, in mid-tour form and ready to throw down! Here's a write up of last night's barn burner of a show at Virginia's Bergland Center show that saw song debuts, brand new covers and special guest and fellow flat picking guitar firebrand Larry Keel! DIG IT!

I have been known to comically smack-talk a certin jamband as part of a long running bit but I will say, in all seriousness for fans of Umphrey's McGee I am sorry to hear the news that your fave band had it's featured guitarist leave. That s**t hurts no matter who you are. My condolences.

After spending much of 2026 off the road, Umphrey's McGee guitarist Jake Cinninger has officially left the band.
