  • The Vanity Belles at Arlene’s Grocery Final Residency Show

    The Vanity Belles (Carrie Welling and Jessi Rae Waltz) finished up their month-long residency at Arlene’s Grocery with a bang! It was crowded (mobbed actually), it was rockin’, it was awesome. If you missed it, I feel sorry for you (seriously). This was the last of four consecutive Monday performances throughout February. We […]

  • The Vanity Belles at Arlene’s Grocery

    The Vanity Belles have a month-long residency at Arlene’s Grocery, every Monday at 8pm in February. We missed the first two and expected to miss last night as well. I was sick the last two weeks of January and we’ve been gone all of February. We cut our trip short by a few […]

  • New York’s Finest Police Tribute at Arlene’s Grocery

    I’m the optimal age to have been a major fan of The Police. I wasn’t, not because I didn’t care for their music, it’s just one of those things. I never owned any of their CDs and never saw them perform. Through osmosis, I am obviously familiar with a number of their hits, […]

  • Rebecca Haviland at Arlene’s Grocery

    Have I mentioned how much we love Rebecca Haviland before? If you don’t know the answer to that question, then welcome to this space, clearly you’re a first-timer. It’s been roughly six weeks since we’ve seen Rebecca perform. That’s bad enough, but she had a few shows in between that we couldn’t attend, […]

  • Rebecca Haviland at Arelene’s Grocery

    We missed a bunch of great shows last week due to the extended holiday weekend and the wonderful company that was up from Richmond to spend it with us. Rebecca Haviland was appearing at Rockwood Music Hall on Friday night, and that’s the only show we had planned to abandon our company to […]

  • Live Society at Arlene’s Grocery

    I was afraid we wouldn’t be able to make this show. We had early dinner plans, but that didn’t mean the dinner wouldn’t last a long time. Amazingly, unbeknownst to us, our friend had a ticket for the 7:30pm show at Rockwood Music Hall Stage 2, which I guess explains her agreement to […]

  • Jeff Litman at Arlene’s Grocery

    Yesterday I posted a long rant. I ended it with the following: I’m going to stop now, or I’ll miss the show we are attending tonight. Hopefully, I’ll be back to my normal blog style tomorrow, having loved tonight’s show. I can happily return to my normal posts after enjoying last night’s set […]

  • Marjory Lee at Arlene’s Grocery

    We’ve seen Marjory Lee perform once before, in a house concert. Feel free to read the entire post, but I’ll pull out the two most relevant paragraphs here, because they will provide the foundation for my comments on last night’s show: Marjory Lee sang and played acoustic guitar (as above, 100% acoustic, with […]

  • Delta Rae at Arlene’s Grocery

    We weren’t supposed to be back in NYC until tomorrow (Thursday). Friends of ours from Thailand were in the states and are leaving tonight. We decided to come home early and have lunch with them today to see them off (that didn’t work out in the end!). Once we committed to that, we […]

  • Ian Axel at Rockwood Music Hall

    The title of this post is as big a surprise to me as it is to you. 😉 When we planned our evening last night (a couple of weeks ago), I was unaware that Ian Axel was scheduled to play at Rockwood Music Hall, and was unaware of his music. Our plan was […]
