• John Hiatt In Concert

  Hiatt has a new album out (Beneath This Gruff Exterior) with The Goners (one of many bands he's used over the years), but he's playing a handful of solo acoustic shows before setting off on tour with the band. We caught one on Friday night.

• Pete Yorn - "Very bad, very annoying."

  Go ahead and joke Pete's hair. Joke his wistful looks. But for god's sake if you're gonna make statements like he's "everything that's wrong" with rock music, back it up with something other than opinions on his appearance. Thanks.

• The Marquis de Sade has a spankin' coming!

  The authorities of the day didn't have enough sense to figure out that letting him personally indulge his appetites would do them far less damage than causing him to channel that energy into books and plays to stir the public imagination.
