Great Rock and Roll blog

Stumbled upon the site He's a Whore and was intrigued because that's the name of my favorite Cheap Trick song. Turns out the blog is very interesting and has loads and loads of free live mp3s from Cheap Trick, Wilco and lots of others. The guy is an 'almost-was' in the rock and roll biz who still records and plays out and has some entertaining anecdotes of his rock and roll journey. He also does lots of record reviews, career overviews and offers up the aforementioned mp3s. Last night I snagged stuff by the Beatles, Nirvana, and Weezer. Enjoy, paisanos, and Happy Labor Day Weekend!

An "almost-was"? Ouch, dude. Thanks for the kind words about my blog, though. Take it easy.

I sent Darren an email explaining that an 'almost was' is a complimentary term that far outpaces a 'has been' or 'never was'. BTW, check out his myspace site: http://www.myspace.com/darrenrobbins

Good stuff.

God, I'm going to waste hours on that site. Good find, David. And hey, a guest commentor! We should be honored!

And make sure you check out Darren's tunes on his MySpace page. Damn fine 70's-power-pop-inspired goodness!

Thanks be unto you, Dave.
