    So, jumping ahead to the “Ticket Alert” portion of this column, it has just been announced that Harry Waters (son of Roger, who some would categorize as a son of a bitch) will be touring next spring with a show – created under his father’s direction – called “Legacy – A Pink Floyd Show.” The repertoire will include selections from the classic Pink Floyd albums “The Dark Side of the Moon,” “Wish You Were Here,” “Animals” and “The Wall.” The Houston date has been set for Sunday, March 24, at the H

    It is intriguing to note that this week Houston will play host to both the re-formed (as opposed to “reformed”) Sex Pistols and the “satanic do-wop band” Twin Temple. What do these two acts have in common? In short, a history of upsetting those people who always have a strand of pearls close by, in case some clutching is deemed necessary. The greatest rock and roll is not safe. It’s not something for the status quo, the uptight, or the moralistic. Rock and roll is meant to shake things (and peop

    The Reverend Willie G has spoken: ZZ Top shall carry on. In a recent interview with Texas Monthly, Billy Gibbons explained why the band will continue to play shows (including one at the Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion on Saturday, October 3) despite the fact that he is now the last man standing. After drummer Frank Beard’s passing last month (bassist Dusty Hill died in 2021), many folks (including yours truly) opined that it was time to close the book on ZZ Top. Not that I really want that to ha

    My wife is a sentimental and sensitive type, which makes it difficult for her to be a music fan these days. It seems like every time we persons of a certain age turn around, another legend that we grew up listening to has passed on. With this in mind, my wife has requested that I refrain from saying things like, “Oh, he died” when referring to artists who have gone to the final soundcheck in the sky. Rather, she prefers to think that they are all merely working at a fried chicken joint outside o

    Ah, the passage of time. “Like sand through the hourglass, so are the Days of Our Lives.” It is with some wistfulness that I consider the just-announced shuttering of the Columbia House Music Club. These were the folks who would send you a stack of records (later CDs) for a penny, based on your agreeing to purchase an additional number of units within a certain time frame. Columbia House began doing business in 1955 as an arm of Columbia Records, with the aim of introducing long-playing albums t
