• Concert Review: Jack's Mannequin, Eagles of Death Metal, Anberlin and Gaslight Anthem. Wednesday, December 10, at the Midland.

  Anberlin brought the hair, Eagles of Death Metal brought the guitar, Jack's Mannequin brought the vocals, Airborne Toxic Event brought the set that was too early in the evening for me to see, and the Gaslight Anthem -- they brought the songs. Jack's Mannequin. Photos by Scott Spychalski I spent about 50 bucks at the Midland Theatre last night at 96.5 FM's the Buzz Ganked Christmas Show, but I feel like a rich man because now, right now, friends, I am listening to sweet marbled-aquamarine slab

• The Top 10 Reissues of 2008

  It's time to rank the best of what went around and came around again. BILLY JOEL The Stranger (Columbia/Legacy) As punk and disco exploded, the Piano Man's deeply unhip 1978 breakthrough proved that top-shelf Broadway/Brill Building songwriting could still sell - and, occasionally, rock. "Scenes From an Italian Restaurant" and "Anthony's Song (Movin' Out)" remain priceless snapshots of Annie Hall-era NYC, the title track bares real teeth, and the Kenny Chesney fave "Only the Good Die Young" -

• Teabaggers cashing in on protests

  Yesterday's Kansas City tea party protest drew at least a couple thousand people. It was pretty impressive to see. And capitalism was in full effect. Looks like TKC was right. The teabaggers had a problem forking their money over to the government. But they didn't see any problem buying merchandise from a "grassroots political movement." At the entrance, there were buttons for sale ... This guy walked the line selling Che Obama buttons (You can't see it, but he was leading a wolf around. Seriou

• Throwback MP3 of the Week: Tenderloin, "Leave This Town"

  I am sometimes surprised that Tenderloin only released two singles on Sub Pop. There was the "Supernatural Bologna/Heard it On the X" 45, and then this split with the Supersuckers. You'd think that a label that released the first few albums from both the Supersuckers themselves, as well as the Reverend Horton Heat, would've been more interested. ​ Maybe it was too late by the time the act became known to the Sub Pop folks - Tenderloin released two full-lengths on Warner Brothers: Let It L
