Guaranteed to be one of the best shows all year

That is, if you love metal. Wilmington's great Thunderlip with the legendary THE SWORD from Austin. Monday night at Kings.

Kenny Roby at Slim's

OK, I've been really slack lately. Work has been killing me, and my personal life has been busy too. However, I did manage to go out to Slim's for my 40th birthday on Saturday and catch a show by Kenny Roby (Myspace), a great local singer-songwriter who used to be in one of my all-time favorite alt-country bands, Six String Drag. One day I'll resurrect the podcast and do one on them. I also got to eat at a brand new German/Austrian/Polish place in town that's a little pricey but worth it. Here's the movie with Kenny Roby.
