If you ever spent anytime downtown Nashville in the last thirty years, chances are you saw and heard Velvet Thunder. The guy was an institution, and the exception to the disparaging remarks I made a couple months ago about not being interested in local street musicians. He had a regular post sitting just outside the Spaghetti Factory, and frankly a trip to Second Avenue where I didn't see him was always...

It's been rough and rocky travelin', But I'm finally standin' upright on the ground. After takin' several readings, I'm surprised to find my mind`s still fairly sound -- Willie Nelson It started simply enough. I was a geeky junior high school smart ass; by contrast, Paul was a popular junior high smart ass. He thought it would be a goof, and a heart attack for the administration, for me to be student...

Dance With Them That Brung You by digby Looks like Sarah Palin has disappointed some of her fans : She's making a big mistake. One of the most important things a country star does is cater to the fans. It's expected that they will stay for long hours and sign memorabilia and get their picture taken: Have you ever wondered why careers of country stars last a long, long time? The biggest reason, of...

Supergroups are never as mind-blowingly awesome as you think they’ll be. The Traveling Wilburys, for example, seemed like a good idea, what with the combination of George Harrison, Bob Dylan, Tom Petty and Roy Orbison. But the music was largely terrible . Same basically goes for the Highwaymen, with Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Kris Kristofferson and Waylon Jennings: great on paper, disappointing...

The Closer, starring Kyra Sedgwick, is my husband's favorite show. In the summer he goes to a neighbor's to watch it, so I don't see the episodes until they are reruns. Last Monday was "Smells like Murder" which I think is the fourth one that had Charlie (Sosie Bacon, her real life daughter) Brenda's rebellious, risk taking niece. In this episode there's a sub-lot about Charlie receiving...

I think we can all agree that Edge of Darkness was a fine bit of television – perhaps even a straight-up masterpiece – and a superb evocation of grief, with some of its best scenes to be found in the aftermath of the murder of Emma, played by Joanne Whalley. Perhaps its most famous scene – and the one that still perplexes me some 24 years on, hence this post – involves Ronald...
