Question Tuesday
If you could have a Wizard Rock show anywhere in the world other than (essentially) your home / hometown, where would it be? I think my ideal location for a Wizard Rock show would be at Loch Lomond in Scotland. Personally, I absolutely love music in a natural setting and of all the places I’ve…

#WrockWednesday and the Search Engine Challenge!
For today’s #WrockWednesday, I’m going to do something a little different. Instead of choosing a single band, I would like to challenge all of you to do something fun that I’ve done a bit myself lately: Google, Yahoo search, YouTube, Ask.com, Last.fm, Blip.fm, AskJeeves about Wizard Rock (or variations thereof!). I’m finding that in a…
