Black Dog News Feeds

That's The Way

From The Language of the Blues, by Debra Devi, one of our favorite definitions of the 'black dog' is that of a ghost spirit of a dog that follows travelers along their journeys. In blues music, this friendly follower can walk side by side to the "Crossroads," offering company and protection, until the musician has reached their destination.

These are the artists that become woven into the very fabric that is you. You don’t [...]

This is the second time I've seen Train live. I caught their show at the Calvin Theatre in Northampton last year. It was an in the moment  decision, but I'm glad that I went. The show shined with its new album, 'Save Me San Francisco,' mixed with favorites from their multiple records, and added some great covers of classic rock hits from Van Halen and Led Zeppelin. Who wouldn't want a re-run of that?

    It had to start somewhere, and start it did. Kickstarted, in fact.
