A Music Blog For People Who Like Music, Blogs & Music Blogs
We Never Asked For This is our short review of a band who thought (or their label/manager/agent/girlfriend thought) that it would be a good idea to send us an email saying “like me! like me! like me!” (more or less).

Rearview Mirror is our annual look back at the year in music from our friends in and around the business. Musicians, managers, roadies, superfans, bloggers etc..
Jared Thompson is perhaps best known for being, along with his wife Dayna and their son Max, owner of The Comedy Attic.

He remains an impassioned music supporter and as seen above, occasional Live Band Karaoke contestant. Check out his picks for the best of 2011 below.
