Guitar Masters at the Opera House

Whargarbl TV has had the greatest honor of attending a special concert at the Napa Valley Opera House in the beautiful city of Napa, Ca on January 21, 2011. The venue, filled with locals and travelers, all of whom are fans, were far from disappointed as to what they heard. From foreign love songs to fast drumming and strumming to acoustic rock riffs, these three "Masters" did not fail to astonish and please their audience as they played a two-hour show with no intermission. AcousticFan, as w...

Tron Legacy: music by Daft Punk

You may have already read Midnyte's review on the movie but there's one thing that wasn't talked about much....THE MUSIC.

I was fortunate enough to purhcase this album dur...

Listen Up! Music you should be hearing…

Okay, so about a month or two ago, a friend of mine invited me to catch a concert at a place in San Francisco called Bottom of the Hill. I have been there with him before, but this time I did not know the bands that would be playing. I never heard of them, and knew nothing about them. I was nervous about the acts and was hoping my twelve or fifteen bucks was worth it (sorry if I sound cheap-I’m a college student!). Truth is, I enjoyed all three of the bands that performed that night and I th...
