Heard a band lately that really intrigued you? Tell us about it.

Hidalgo Drive band without a doubt. They play music from the 60's and early 70's. From the Beatles, Rolling Stones to Otis Redding and Wilson Picket. From rock to Motown. Good dance band and a good band to listen to. Visit their myspace page at myspace.com/hidalgodrive They will have a Cd coming out soon.

Actually I wanted to hear Nina Simone's "feeling good" and when I youtubed it, Muse plays a cover for it and It was suprisingly good! Speaking of covers, Kate Bush's "Running up that Hill" is also covered by Placebo and it's also good. Check them out and tell me what you think!

OH if any of you guys likes Led Zeppelin, there is this supposed greatest Led Zeppelin cover band called ZOSO, they will be playing at Rox's (Cypress Bayou Casino's nightclub) I heard some clips and they sound pretty good. I plan to check them out, since it's probably the closest, Led Zeppelin that's ever gonna come to us. Darn that Allison Krauss...

R.I.P The Garage
That place was tha sh--!

Enough with the cover bands already... I already own like three radios!
