Just a quick post to share my excitement/anticipation for Lindsay Lohan’s appearance on this week’s SNL. From what I read, she is doing well lately on the whole probation thing. The new promos for the show this weekend poke fun at some of the things she has gone through. So, my hope is that they [...]

Go get it. Seriously, do it. Before Jason Mraz released his last album “We Sing. We Dance. We Steal Things”, he released EPs previewing live versions of some of the new tracks on the full length LP. For hardcore Jason Mraz fans, this was a welcomed tease. We all can pick that one artist or [...]

[This is for my grandmother] Josh Groban is unofficially my grandmother’s boyfriend. And today is his 31st birthday. She has shirts, signed posters, CDs, DVDs, DVR recordings, Ornaments, coffee mugs, etc. She’s the first one to share how Josh was on this show or that show. She told me that I should tweet him happy [...]
Oscars 2012 – Will The Artist sweep?
Posted: 26th February 2012 by Matt in Entertainment - General, MoviesTags: 2012, Behind the Scenes, Berenice Bejo, Meryl Streep, nominees, Oscars, The Artist, The Help, Viola Davis
Well folks, it is Oscar night and we get to see history made in some capacity. Will a French silent film sweep the Oscars 2012? Will Meryl Streep win another or will she lose the trophy to Viola Davis (The Help) or Bérénice Bejo (The Artist)? I can’t make a prediction for any of the categories [...]
Parenthood

If you are looking for one of the best family dramas on television now, check out Parenthood on NBC. I know that the ratings aren’t always the highest, but I am so glad that NBC has given this show at least three seasons. It has to be one of the few shows that I can [...]
Joss Stone – LP1
Posted: 24th February 2012 by Matt in Album Review, MusicTags: Cry Myself to Sleep, Introducing, Joss Stone, Karma, LP1, Newborn, Somehow, The Soul Sessions
When Joss Stone first came on the music scene on her The Soul Sessions album, I think people were shocked at the soulful sound that came out of such a young british girl. I certainly jumped on the bandwagon, especially when the went the more pop-mainstream route on Introducing… Joss Stone’s first release without [...]

I wish I could remember where or when I came across Eric Hutchinson’s music. I know it was around the time that I lived in Boston – so that was either 2007 or 2008. In 2008, I saw Eric Hutchinson open for OneRepublic in a cool little club/venue in Boston. He certainly knew how to [...]
Ingram Hill

Years ago my friend introduced me to Ingram Hill’s album June’s Picture Show and immediately I was hooked and continued sharing the love. This trio from Nashville has a distinct sound, but could have fit right into the mainstream singer-songwriter craze of the early 2000s. For some reason, at least from what I saw, they [...]
Typos and Misused Apostrophes

If you know me, you know that one of my favorite things to do is find typos and question the intelligence of professional sign printers. This post won’t have too much text, but it will have plenty of pictures that I have taken recently showcasing the intelligence of the general public. Shall we begin? Oh, [...]

I can guarantee when people think about Nathan Morris and Boys II Men, they probably think of their many hits – “On Bended Knee”, “I’ll Make Love to You”, “Til the Water Runs Dry”, “A Song for Mama”, etc. However, when I think of Nathan Morris and Boys II Men, I think about this stellar [...]
