Elliott Smith
My “This Week In Music History” feature went out again this week over at the Spinner.
On the bummer side, this was the anniversary of the week Elliott Smith either committed suicide by stabbing himself in the chest. Or he was murdered? Conspiracy. It’s also the week that man of the people Kid Rock got into a fight at a Waffle House. Noble.

Carrie Underwood & Tim McGraw
Sarah spent last weekend in the rain and mud and relative wilderness of the inaugural Boots And Hearts country music festival in Bowmanville, Ontario.
The festival, which is aiming to become a sort of Bonnaroo for new country, had a pile of big names like Carrie Underwood, Kid Rock and Tim McGraw perform across its three days.
It also had non-stop rain, mud and front loading tractors driving through the middle of the audience (you have to backtrack through Sarah’s twitter account at @fodderfigure to see some of this stuff… it was kind of an Apocalypse Now adventure).
Anyway, she also wrote an official recap of the fest which you can read over at The Boot by clicking here.
