• Arty Girl: The Art of John Lennon

  I really thought that this week, I'd surely blog a bunch about Art Detour.Turns out, Robrt Pela and Wynter Holden did all the dirty work for me. At this point, I feel I'd just be beating a dead horse. And I prefer not to be around dead things...just a personal choice.While I highly encourage you to take a trip downtown this weekend, I must mention another art event that has a brief shelf life. And by brief, I mean, like, 3 days.It's a traveling exhibition of the artwork of John Lennon. Yes, the

• The Rosewood Thieves Shake Up The Lost Leaf

  Imagine, if you will, stepping into a friend's house... Except it's filled with people you don't know (yet), and this friend built a bar around his kitchen, and set up track lighting and a half-dozen hightop tables in the dining room. That place would be Downtown Phoenix's The Lost Leaf, which hosted New York band The Rosewood Thieves in a cozy, familiar fashion last night.From the second they started the first tune, The Rosewood Thieves had people playing air-guitar, air-drums and tapping their

• The Sun Sessions: The Sugar Thieves Play Eric Clapton

  Jonathan McNamara Out of the dozen or so talented locals we've featured thus far in our ongoing Sun Sessions series, Mikel Lander and Meredith Moore (a.k.a. The Sugar Thieves) have a singular distinction unmatched by the rest.A major-label contract? Distribution through Hop Topic? Nope, even better. The rootsy blues duo, who can be seen with their full backing band every Wednesday at Tempe's Sail Inn, participated in a "Sun session" of a different kind earlier this year when the

• Top Ten Musicians Spawned From Other Musicians

  Bob Dylan's canceled show in Glendale tonight got us thinking about his son, Jakob Dylan, who is still young and fit enough to perform in just over 100 degree weather. He's less at risk for heatstroke, sure, but, of course, the number of folks who will shell out cash to see Jake is definitely not in the same ballpark as the those who would see Daddy Bobby perform.That's kind of a trend, actually. Many children grow up to follow in their parents' footsteps, and the world of music is no different.

• Congressman Shadegg: Healthcare Debate Bigger Than 9/11

  www.iecclesia.com​Remember when John Lennon told a British journalist that he thought the Beatles were bigger than Jesus? True or not, it was probably a stupid thing to say -- and he only pissed of Christians. It seems as though an Arizona congressman may have caught his own case of foot-in-mouth-disease in an interview with 92.3 (KTAR). Congressman John Shadegg seems to think that the health care reform debate is bigger than 9/11.
