You don’t have to wait forever
Thursday, February 19th, 2009Sonoma County’s favorite instrumental rockers, Not to Reason Why, have returned from the studio with a soon to be released full length album Would You Hug Fire?, featuring eight tracks of atmospheric soundscapes sure to get your heart racing. For all those eager ears out there, NTRW have uploaded their new track “Forever” for your […]
Snipers!
Sunday, February 15th, 2009So Modesto was recently rated one of the top 10 worst places to live in the Country (It really is that bad) but, redeeming it for one night will be Snipers, Solar Powered People, and Sleepnoise! I haven’t heard Sleepnoise, but I can definitely vouch for the other two. Come out and make Modesto great […]
LOVE SUCKS ‘09
Friday, February 13th, 2009I can totally remember the last Love Sucks show I attended. It was years ago at what used to be Clo’s Creamery. It was the first and last time I ever went to a show at that old venue, and I thought it was amazing - an intimate little bar with a full stage set […]
The Problem With Promotional CDs
Sunday, February 8th, 2009To begin with full disclosure, I have been reviewing CDs and writing about bands since college. I like doing it, particularly because I get free music. No denying that.
Now I’m not a picky man. Usually the CDs I get are not the full package. This is standard practice for record companies and promotional material in […]

thank you!
Sunday, January 11th, 2009A giant thank you to everyone who came out to Ace in the Hole Pub tonight! The show was a great success, despite a few technical mishaps and time slot changes. It was still great. All three bands were amazing, and special thanks to Dandelion War for blowing minds despite a faulty Navi, and Horizons […]

busking
Sunday, December 21st, 2008Tonegazer fully supports DIY music and style. This is why when we came across a band playing on the streets of Union Square in San Francisco last night, we had to make sure the public knew about it.
Apparently it’s called busking. A band sets up on the street and just plays - no permit, no […]
The Black Cat this Saturday
Tuesday, December 16th, 2008We would like to encourage everyone to go see this great show happening in Pengrove this Saturday. Oh the sweet, sweet sounds of local music.
Thomas Elder, we salute your amazing flyer designs.
Just say no to zombie bands
Saturday, December 13th, 2008Longwave should move on and accept defeat
You’d think the Phoenix Theater is a good place to revive a career, but when bands come back from the dead it isn’t always a good idea.
Honestly, I didn’t go to see Longwave last night at the Phoenix Theater in Petaluma. The headliners were no match for the draw […]
That new band smell: The Number Twelve Looks Like You, and you should be so lucky
Tuesday, December 9th, 2008It’s that new band smell. Fresh, invigorating and slightly sweet.
I went to see The Number Twelve Looks Like You at Slim’s in San Francisco tonight just to see if they were real. I heard one of their albums, and a couple songs on the Myspace, and thought it had to be fake. The drumming and […]
Benefit Show
Thursday, December 4th, 2008Our bestest friend Ben Shakleford will be joining Snipers for this wonderful Benefit show for Liz Beidelman! It’s a great cause with great bands, plus Ben is one of the raddest musicians we know.

Section M Reunion Show
Monday, September 15th, 2008It’s been years since I first started distributing Section M magazines in high school. A rotating group of friends and I ( Jana, Nichole, Annie, Jennie ) were so excited to have some small part in the local music scene, much of which was a complete mystery to us. We would often devote a whole […]
Many Thanks for Last Night
Sunday, September 7th, 2008Thanks to everyone who made it out to the show last night. The night was an overwhelming success with all profits going towards the folks at Free Mind Media. We would like to extend a special thanks to Travis and the rest of the Daredevil’s & Queens staff for making this possible, to Lagunitas for […]
Section M Reunion Show
Saturday, September 6th, 2008You probably won’t ever see a lineup like this again!
