Written by Nick Leitzke
With one more month of unbearable humidity ahead of us and nearly two months of rest and relaxation behind us it is time to look back and reflect. Although truth be told my summer hasn’t borne much rest and relaxation. It was Homer Simpson who said, “When …

Quasi @ Black Cat

Written by Nick Leitzke
First and foremost, for the band and for those of us who may have heard the wrong thing, I believe the gentleman in the crowd shouted, “We were better last time,” not, “You were better last time.” I will touch on this later, but I wanted to …

Spring. Rebirth. Rejuvenation. Thawing light at the end of an especially frosty tunnel these past few months. The strength of a good mix comes not from including songs you love but from listening to each song and understanding what needs to come next. A …

Eternal Hope with Eternal Summers

Written by Nick Leitzke

“This Article Will Change Your Life, I Swear”: Nick’s Musical Affliction

Written by Nick Leitzke
Tonight as I waited for my nachos grande at Sheetz I noticed the employees were listening to the R&B channel on their radio. This was a welcome change to the typical bad pop that may or may not be Top 40 I usually hear at Sheetz. I …

Album Review: Besnard Lakes – The Besnard Lakes Are The Roaring Night

Written by Nick Leitzke
On March 9 the Besnard Lakes release their third album, ‘The Besnard Lakes are the Roaring Night.’ A benefit of pre-ordering albums is the free digital download, and I have been listening to ‘The Besnard Lakes are the Roaring Night’ so much that I can’t remember when …
