Subway Shuffle: 8/1/10

I've been on the road quite a bit over the last week, in fact this is more of a "Subway/Plane/Taxi/Airtrain/Rental Car" Shuffle. Been in four different airports: Charlotte, Laguardia (NYC), JFK (NYC) and Buffalo.......... and listened to a lot of music. The good news is that I heard some great stuff over the last week so here's a 10 song "Subway Shuffle" for your listening pleasure:

Frightened Rabbit @ Webster Hall 4/28/10

Last night some friends and I went down to Webster Hall to see Frightened Rabbit. It's been just over a year since I saw them (last time at the much smaller Le Poisson Rouge). The Webster show was packed and the crowd was real enthusiastic. The band played a good mix of songs from their new album and some old favorites.

I took a couple pics and some video clips that you can check out below......
