One of my biggest concert-going regrets is that I never saw these guys. And now it’s too late.

Several years ago, there were several injured performers at Coachella, starting with Axl Rose in a guitar-throne loaned to him by Dave Grohl. Not to be outdone, Florence broke her ankle on weekend one while jumping off a section of stage.

When I was younger, I did not respect the world of pop music. I always thought it was so commercial and bland, which is a super closed-minded attitude. Now that I’ve put the effort in, I’m regularly discovering incredible artists that fall into that category. It’s been quite the surprising discovery, but one that I’mContinue reading “#647 – Pang by Caroline Polachek”
