Kitty's picks for the weekend of November 5...
1)Mark Croft w/Beth Killeat the Brink Lounge, Saturday at 8:30pm. A great show with two great entertainers! You may remember Beth from the band Clear Blue Betty...she left for Texas for a while, but she's back! (John Urban made a cool promo video..see below!)
2) Old Crow Medicine Show, at the Barrymore Theatre Sunday night. American Roots music with a rock and roll attitude!
3) Tales from Planet Earth: films and events with environmental themes at various downtown venues throughout the weekend. Includes the award-winning documentary "Trouble The Water," about the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina in the lower 9th ward of New Orleans.
Freaky Band Name of the Week: Semi-precious Weapons, with the Sounds, Foxy Shazam, Diamonds, at the Majestic Saturday night. 8:30pm.
Go see Mark Croft!
I found your blog on MSN Search. Nice writing. I will check back to read more.

you forgot all of the awesome, FREE music going on @ the memorial union rathskellar this weekend.
FRIDAY:
el ten eleven (www.myspace.com/elteneleven) is going to rock...they remind me a lot of ratatat with a little bit more bite and more of an electronic element. dont sleep on the opener either...basic physics (www.myspace.com/basicphysics) is a DJ duo that will surely get the dance party started. you can expect to hear a daft punk remix among other things. influences of deadmau5 and booka shade
SATURDAY:
emancipator (www.myspace.com/emancipator) is one of my favorite producer/DJs right now. his album, soon it will be cold enough, hasnt left my regular listening rotation since ii got it a few years ago. hip hop beats are masterfully crafted (pun totally intended for show proximity) alongside euphoric strings and arctic voices to create something that really digs deep in your soul. not a feeling i would normally associate with electronic music. this set might not be as bangin as some other DJ's playing in milwaukee, but its free and you can sleep in your own bed afterwards. oh yeah, and steez is playing too (www.myspace.com/steezburgers). steez = creepfunk = fun
Nice post about 1055 Triple M » Around Town: 3 weekend picks. I am very impressed with the time and effort you have put into writing this story. I will give you a link on my social media blog. All the best!
I'm not sure why Pete Yorn decided to name his new music project after a European cave dwelling aquatic salamander, but if he stops by to play us some songs in Studio M, we'll have to ask him.
The Olms is a collaboration between Pete Yorn and...
Today's song was written by Peter Yarrow of Peter, Paul and Mary. It was inspired by the 1957 novel Doctor Zhivago. No one was inspired by the song this morning. It was rejected by almost all the listeners.
Today is World Goth Day, a day to celebrate the post-punk, anti-establishment, dark clothes-wearing subculture.
I'm pretty sure I was a Goth for at least for little while, for two reasons.
1) I almost hardly ever wear pastels.
2) I used to...
Hello to all from Nfusion. Another round of challenges has moved beyond us all. Congrats to those of us lucky enough to have survived to this point. Sad to see the others eliminated as they were all very creative and talented. Good Bye to our new friends...
This morning it seemed like just about everyone was in the mood for some Funky Cold Medina...except Kitty. This ridiculous song made it all the way to number 3 in 1989. Jonathan says any song that references advertising dogs from the 80's has got...
Madison's summer music festival season kicks off this weekend with Brat Fest at Willow Island, where there are more bands than you can shake a bratwurst at! Check out the Brat Fest website to plan your itinerary.
Next up is the Marquette...
John Fogerty is making the talk show rounds this week, stopping in to see David Letterman Tuesday and Wednesday, and the ladies of "The View" on Thursday.
He's promoting his new album, "Wrote a Song For Everyone" which comes out next Tuesday...
It's a miracle that both Jonathan and KItty wanted to hear Barry Manilow this morning. They were not alone. Plenty of Fanilow's called in to vote yes. One caller claimed to have seen Manilow in concert 25 times!
