Review: The Decemberists and Loch Lomond at the Wellmont Theatre

Review: The Decemberists and Loch Lomond at the Wellmont Theatre
One thing that separates a good show from a near-great one is venue selection. If a band is in the wrong room for its sound, it doesn't matter how well they are playing that night, something will just seem not quite right. On the flip side, a grand and great-sounding room can seem squandered on a band that can't quite fill it, sonically speaking.

My top 10 Jersey concerts of 2008

My top 10 Jersey concerts of 2008
Just like every other critic, blogger, scene regular and frequent record store patron around this time of year, I've compiled a "top 10" list. However, rather than throw together a list of my favorite albums, singles, videos, re-issues or beards using the same pool of nominees as every other list-maker, I've decided to make my "top 10" pretty personal. Here is a list of the top 10 shows I saw in New Jersey this year.
