Results for Eddie Money

This blue-collar rock icon has been making music since the late 1970s. Coming from a long line of police officers, Money was part of the New York Police Academy in the early '70s and played rock shows at night to scratch his musical itch. Interested in pursuing a rock 'n roll path, Money headed west to Berkeley, California in the late '70s. Playing gigs around the Bay Area got him noticed by Bill Graham who released his debut album in '77. His career flourished into the '80s with hits like "Two Tickets to Paradise" and "Baby Hold On." His struggle with drug addiction competed with his music in the mid-'80s, but Money overcame his problems, released comeback album Can't Hold Back in '86 and continued touring through the '80s and into the '90s....more

    I remember the moment I realized writing a book about the Dead Kennedys would be something of an uphill battle. It was in February of 2002. I had just been introduced to East Bay Ray, the group's long-faced guitarist, in the middle of an empty rock venue in Jacksonville, FL. The DK were on their first "reunion" tour with Dr. Know singer Brendan Cruz taking the place of absent original vocalist Jello Biafra. (read more)

  • Riot on the Road to Ruin: The Ramones vs. The Queers

    by James Greene, Jr.June 11, 2008Comments (3)

    The Queers came together at the tail end of that period, forming in scenic Portsmouth, NH.

The Ramones wanted to sniff glue; the Queers announced “We’d Have a Riot Doing Heroin.” The Ramones wanted to whack kids (read more)

    John Kerry carried only one age demographic in the 2004 election: 18- to 29-year-olds.

But in the end, the 18 to 29 demographic simply wasn’t enough. Why? (read more)

  • Barack Obama and the Indie Rock Constituency

    Yesterday was Super Tuesday. In a year that’s probably seen more musicians come out to raise their voice on behalf of a presidential candidate, the question we want to explore here is: do musicians backing a political candidate have an impact on a voter’s choice? (read more)
