  • The Milk Carton Kids at Joe’s Pub

    The Milk Carton Kids (MCK) headlined Joe’s Pub last night. We bought tickets ages ago. We caught their first ever NYC show (after they officially formed MCK) almost five month ago. Sadly, we missed two NYC shows between then and last night. My post about that NYC debut show went into great detail […]

  • The Milk Carton Kids at Rockwood Music Hall Stage 2

    The Milk Carton Kids (MKC) headlined their first ever NYC show last night, at Rockwood Music Hall Stage 2. MKC is comprised of two individual stars, Joey Ryan and Kenneth Pattengale. Before MKC was formed, we were huge fans of Joey’s work and attended as many shows as we could. A few of […]

  • 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 […]

  • Joey Ryan, Kenneth Pattengale, The Springs Standards and Meg and Dia at The Studio at Webster Hall

    Joey Ryan comes to NYC a few times a year. If we’re here too, you can bet we’ll make it to one of his shows. Even though we love seeing him solo, this time he was touring with Kenneth Pattengale as well. The two of them make magic together, so we run rather […]

  • Joey Ryan and Matt Hires at Workplay

    We visit Birmingham, AL at least twice a year. We were planning to arrive late last night. A week earlier, I noticed a tweet by Joey Ryan that he was touring the South opening for Matt Hires. After a quick consultation with Lois, we changed our plans to arrive much earlier in the […]

  • 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 […]

  • Vienna Teng, Alex Wong and Joey Ryan at Highline Ballroom

    Last night was very special on many levels. At the top of the list was seeing Vienna Teng perform in NYC (at the Highline Ballroom) for the last time in a while (she’s off to grad school later this month!). Even though Vienna tours the US and Europe regularly, we have come to […]

  • Jay Nash, Joey Ryan and Chris Seefried

    Joey Ryan in NYC the same night that we are? No need to wonder what we had planned. 🙂 Joey just completed a UK/Europe tour with Jay Nash. After joining a lot of our favorite artists for a show (way) upstate in NY over the 4th of July weekend, they headed down to […]

  • 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 […]

  • 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, […]
