Atlanta Music Scene

With Roth, what you see is what you get: a middle-aged man in tight leather pants prancing around for much of the show in embroidered jackets that were probably stolen from the Sgt. Pepper. He twirled the mike stand like an oversized baton and attempted a few leg kicks — but not too many. He does look better than most rockers his age. (See Mike Reno of Loverboy.) His vocals served the songs just fine most of the time even if the sound mix meant you couldn't understand him half the time. (And if you know the lyrics already and are singing along, who cares?)

Eddie was better during his last visit to Atlanta. To make matters worse, during his extended guitar solo, the sound went out partway through, diluting what is often a highlight of any Van Halen concert. Even after he got his sound back, the mix was confoundingly bad during the final pre-encore song "Ain't Talkin' Bout Love." The guitar was too loud and Roth's vocals were swallowed up.

Toy retailer entertains web upgrade

Independent toy retailer The Entertainer has completed a website refresh and contracted ecommerce specialist Escalate Retail to provide a software suite for the back-end.

The system replaces a bespoke implementation made before thetoyshop.com and The Entertainer's other brand Gadgetshop were acquired, which was deemed too inflexible to be able to cope with the peaks and troughs of traffic.

Conster Nation

STON, S.C. -- Ken Lay died last week.

Huzzah. Huzzah.

There are some dead who don't deserve respect.

If I had a chariot I'd tie his lifeless corpse to the back and drag him through the streets of Houston - slowly enough to let every one of his former employees spit on him - before towing his worthless carcass to the middle of what was Enron Field where he'd fry on a pyre of worthless stock certificates.

And that would be too good for him.

I wanted him to rot in prison for thirty years.

I wanted him to live a life far worse than the life he forced on thousands of his employees; decent hardworking folks whom he stuck with shares of a company that was as hollow as he was immoral, shares that he forced them to keep even as he dumped his and made millions.

You Gotta Sin To Get Saved and Other Assorted Love Songs.

There's some really promising albums coming out soon; it's better than the first signs of spring.

My buddy Rick Koster's bête noir Stephen Malkmus has a new album out called “Real Emotional Trash" with reportedly some prog flourishes.
