Willie Jones, Berryville Ark. 11/20/09
artist: Jessie May Hemphill
Review: Happy to see the Rich Heritage is being put to good use, Can't wait to see all of you soon. I'll be bringing my mobile blues museum and a National Tri-cone with me, see ya! check youtube for Jessie Mae Hemphill/Eureka Jones


calee, milwaukee 11/20/09
artist: witches of whitewater
Review: that story gave me the creeps and extreme goosepimples. I have friends in whitewater, now I'm afraid for them!


Janice Walker, England 11/20/09
artist: Devo
Review: I've always enjoyed their outside quirky approach to everything that is relevant.


Peggy Spates, San Diego, Ca 11/20/09
artist: Michael McDonald
Review: The man could sing the phone book and it would be heavenly. I saw his Xmas show in Des Moines Iowa in 2007 and it was fantastic!!!


Sarah, Whitewater, WI 11/19/09
Review: This is so creepy. My roommates and I have used a Ouija board a few times and have talked to two apparent witches. I have been trying to see if I can figure it out at all or if there is any way to see that what is being said is true. I am starting to believe that all of this is true and not being made up. I actually think that it is possible that the UWW kid that hung himself last year in the cemetery may have actually found the witches book and that is why he was killed.


Crystal Seymour, East Wenatchee, Wa. 11/19/09
artist: Gavin Degraw
Review: I don't believe Gavin Degraw fervor for performing is going wane. Some singer/song writer/musician have there times of relief, were as it may seem like it. Lets compare other musicans to him. The difference is the feeling in each word he gives on stage. I am a fan of Gavin Degraw, and I dont believe he will be going south for the winter as far as his music life goes. Not if I have anything to do with it.lol
This man is the light of my life, and he doesn't deserve anything less than a personal appology.
So when making your thesis, I believe it is important to have other information besides one show you might see. Not everyone gives the exact same performance twice. Not even Elton John is that good, I'm sure he would agree as musician would. Thank you for your time. I hope you enjoy the rest of your glorious day.

bandido, LA. Ca. 11/05/09
artist: Natalie Merchant
Review: It's typicle of journalists like yourself "phil bonyata", to convey meaningless negetivity about an artisticly diverse performer like Natalie Merchant. Look at what journalists like yourself did to Lauryn Hills career. She actually believed the crap that those journalists wrote or said about her. Only a majority of people can relate, understand and sympathize with their music. Unfortunately your niether a music lover or artistic and most journalists are'nt. This is expected from journalists like yourself who need to thrash performers just to have people read your boring point of view.

Megan, Albuquerque NM 11/03/09
artist: Theater Major
Review: I think RENT is a fantastic mixture of truth and love. There's no other story that expresses the belief that love lives on than this one. The original cast can not be forgotten, although I encourage everyone to open thier minds if they plan to see this performance in modern day. Don't be bias. This is something that everyone has to see at least once.


Neslihan, turkey 11/03/09
artist: My chemical romance

Matt, Milwaukee, WI 10/29/09
artist: Kelly Clarkson
Review: She had been struggling with a cold the days leading up to the concert, which might have led to some strained vocals, but other reviews of the show said her vocals were spectacular.
Also, she introduced very few songs, and the show was a near sell-out, not a "small crowd".
