The least-famous and least-talented of the Beatles will be performing at the Seminole Hard Rock in Hollywood, FL this Thursday, July 3rd. The All Starr Band this time will be comprised of Colin Hay, Billy Squier, Hamish Stuart, Edgar Winter, Gary Wright, and Gregg Bissonette.
What you can expect is for performances of each artist's more popular songs, with some more obscure tracks thrown in here and there. I saw Ringo the last time he was here back in 2006. It was a good show, despite getting completely drenched by torrential rainfall.
I'll be there this Thursday. If you've never seen a Beatle in real life and have always wanted to, you should go. It's not like getting tickets for Paul McCartney is a simple task, anyway...

Dallas Rock Radio: A Review Of The Passerby...
While in Texas, I got a chance to flip through the radio dial and see what the Dallas/Fort Worth area has to offer. As expected, there was way more country/southern rock stations than I care for. Then again, just one country station in any given radio market is too much.
Rather than suffering from a lack of rock stations altogether, which is the case for Miami, Dallas suffers from insane redundancy.
Basically, all rock stations in the Dallas/Forth Worth area have the same format. They all play a random hodgepodge rock format, ranging in both time era and subgenre. For the most part it's all crap, with crappy bands like Evanescence, Incubus, and Linkin Park. Occasionally you'll hear some gems like the Clash, the Smiths, and other fun alternative rock.
While it's a bit of a step up from Miami rock radio, it's by no means a rock oasis.

Zeta Returns on HD Radio
Zeta has returned to the Miami radio dial, this time on Big 105.9's HD-2 channel. If you have an HD radio, just tune in to Big 105.9 and flip over to the HD-2 channel. I haven't had a chance to listen to it yet, but I'm told it sounds pretty good.
