  • Ian Axel, Greg Holden and Julia Nunes at the Studio at Webster Hall

    This night couldn’t come fast enough for us. We bought tickets the minute they went on sale (we like to believe they were the first four sold, so don’t burst our bubble if you know differently). Ian Axel just released a new CD (well, at the moment it’s digital downloads only, but the […]

  • Greg Holden at Rockwood Music Hall Stage 2

    We’ve seen Greg Holden perform three full sets over the past year and sing as a guest at a few other shows. He’s grown on me each time I’ve seen him. Last night was his last show of 2010, at Rockwood Music Hall Stage 2. It was scheduled for 10:30pm so we were […]

  • ambeR Rubarth, Joey Ryan and Kenneth Pattengale at Rockwood Music Hall Stage 2

    Another night, another awesome show at Rockwood Music Hall Stage 2 (third one in four nights!). I guess there’s nothing left to say. This will officially be my shortest post ever. Why are you still here? OK, just for you, take a peek below this line and I’ll share my experience from last […]

  • Ian Axel at Rockwood Music Hall Stage 2

    We’ve seen Ian Axel perform nine times prior to last night. The very first time was at Rockwood Music Hall, on October 23rd 2009. He blew us away. As hard as it is to imagine, he’s never disappointed us, even with a wide variety of venues and setups (solo, different band members, etc.). […]

  • Ian Axel and Joey Ryan at Rockwood Music Hall

    We had a big birthday celebration weekend for Lois. I just put up a short blog (OK, short for me) about The Addams Family which we saw on Friday night. Last night, we had a special dinner at the Peking Duck House, and I will write about that in the next couple of […]

  • Ian Axel at Joe’s Pub

    We’ve seen Ian Axel perform three full sets before, plus a few songs at the New York Sings for Haiti benefit and some guest appearances. Still, we were looking forward to last night with great anticipation. Joe’s Pub is our favorite NYC spot to see a show, and Ian is one of our […]

  • New York Sings for Haiti

    On most days even compassionate people go about their lives in a near bubble-like existence. The problems of the rest of the world aren’t one’s first thought. Unfortunately, it often takes a tragedy to break us out of that routine and remind us that we are dramatically more alike than we are different, […]

  • ambeR Rubarth, Ian Axel, Greg Holden and Joey Ryan at Tin Angel

    ambeR Rubarth is very good about disseminating information about upcoming shows once they’re set. When she tweeted a couple of months ago that she would be appearing in Philadelphia at Tin Angel with Ian Axel, Greg Holden and Joey Ryan on January 22nd, 2010, we grabbed tickets. A month later ambeR announced that […]

  • Ian Axel and Greg Holden at Canal Room

    This one is gonna be long (surprise!), so let’s bottom line it for the impatient: Ian Axel – Crazy good! Greg Holden – Very good, would have been nice if some in the crowd were more attentive. Katie Costello – Very good, need to hear more and I want to. Honey Larochelle – […]

  • 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 […]
