Bumbershoot 2010
That's our town!
The NY Times recently called Seattle one of the best cities to visit for Labor Day…because of Bumbershoot, the city’s long-running arts and music fest.
We count our performances at Bumbershoot over the years as career high points and we also experienced some of our greatest moments there as a music fanatic, taking in countless amazing shows, including B.B. King, Soundgarden, Elvis Costello, King Sunny Ade, Richard Thompson, Parliament-Funkadelic, The Sex Pistols, Wu-Tang Clan and about a billion others.
This year’s lineup is typically, ridiculously wonderful, even if you just look at the headliners from each of the three nighttime mainstage shows: Bob Dylan, Weezer and Drake. Where else?

Antoine Dodson + Evan Gregory = Bob Dylan
Is the “Bed Intruder Song” 2010’s answer to “The Lonesome Death of Hattie Carroll” or “Masters of War?” Is a digital music geek plus a sampled news clip the 2010 equivalent of a guy from rural Minnesota with an acoustic guitar and a poet’s ear for a lyric? We’re not sure, but this tune has us thinking about what it means to make folk music ripe with social commentary these days…and to sell a lot of records/tracks in the process, just like Bob did.

East Coast Flava
De La Soul -- Long Island's finest...East Coast, or Outer Space?
nuTsie TOP 100 EAST COAST HIP HOP SONGS
Keeping with the hip hop motif, for your perusal and from nuTsie Mark’s fervid mind we present nuTsie’s Top 100 East Coast Hip Hop Songs.
Remember when that whole East Coast v. West Coast thing was all over the place? And people were actually killing each other over it? WTF?
Happily, those days seem to have passed us by…pretty sad statement on American culture when you can get shot just because you’re an artist who happens to be from a particular place.

Top 100 90s Hip Hop
The Dr. is in
nuTsie TOP 100 90S HIP HOP SONGS
The only thing we know about 90s hip hop is that we sat behind Snoop Dogg and Tupac at the 1996 GRAMMYs and they got up to leave the theater about every 15 minutes. Whatever they were doing in the lobby, it was making their eyes really bloodshot and they were laughing a lot.
Fortunately for all of us, homeboy Mark here at nuTsie knows and loves everything about 90s hip hop, and he put together this killer playlist for your enjoyment and my education.

The Big 80s
Kajagoogoo's Limahl - too shy?
nuTsie TOP 100 80S ONE-HIT WONDERS
Big hair. Big drum sounds. Big clothes. The 80s were big, big, big.
This playlist features all your faves from Gordon Gecko’s Big Me Decade. And all of your least faves.
This is one of the more interesting playlists at nuTsie. It ranges from breakout classics by serious career artists (e.g., Steve Forbert, Devo, Don Williams, Roseanne Cash, Charlie Sexton) to sweetly perfect one-off confections by here-today, gone-tomorrow pop stars (”Puttin on the Ritz,” “Too Shy,” “867-5309 (Jenny),” “99 Luftalloons”).
Good times. BIG times.

nuTsie Top 100 Rockabilly Songs
The Rock and Roll Trio, feat. Johnny Burnette
nuTsie TOP 100 ROCKABILLY SONGS
What do you get when you mix unequal parts jump, jive, country, blues, western swing and redneck savoir faire?
Rockabilly, that’s what!
We can’t say that we could really define the boundaries of rockabilly. Is it a sub-genre of rock and roll? Did it predate rock and roll? Is it country, all speeded up on Dexedrine? Is it white-boy jump and jive?
Who cares? Let’s boogie!
