Welcome!


Today, Saturday, July 30, 2011


Meanwhile, some great music is being made. CARNEY, the band, opening for U2 in Moncton, NB tonight! Along with the Arcade Fire. Lucky audience for the last concert of the U2360° Tour.


Please watch the beautifully made music video of Rise Above 1, from Spider-Man Turn Off the Dark, featuring Bono and The Edge with Reeve Carney.


CARPE DIEM.


Trio of Songs for the Week are Carney’s Love Me Chase Me along with U2’s Beautiful Day Live, and finally MY MOM.

Doris from Rego Park -- The New York Times’s Ken Plutnicki beautifully sums up our friend Don Rosler’s song about the beloved Mets fan who regularly called in to WFAN.

Baseball fans and music fans can buy Don’s song (and the CD it is featured on, Rosler’s Recording Booth, at CD Baby, and eventually at iTunes).
