...musician in the room last night, I never knew Carter. I came to Dallas about five months after his untimely death, so I never had the chance. And though I went to Dada last night to pay homage to the man I've heard so much about, and also to show my support for the still-grieving musicians who took to the stage last night, I just don't feel...

Nice lineup, but it ain't happening. At least, not this weekend Unpaid taxes forced Bar of Soap , Exposition Park's venerable rock club/laundromat, to shut its doors last weekend , and owner Charlie Gilder is doubtful that he'll be able to open this weekend either That's a tough break for the bar, as it forces the postponement--if not outright...

...music. But I especially enjoy this new album. The vocals are throughout it are at once affecting, accessible, heartbreaking and honest--and the backing music matches up with it incredibly well. This is easily the most original sound I've heard in the regional rock scene since moving to town. And yet, for the many people who weren't around for...

...band's cover from Bonnaroo Hallahan: I think it was the combined forces of good karma and circumstance that led to such a crazy evening. We've been super fans of hers for a long time, and some journalist asked Jim why we covered "Tyrone."
