I am a transplant from Milwaukee, WI and I proudly call this city home these days.<br /><br />One thing I think you could add to this article is King Records. A.A. obviously spends his time listening to Miley Cyrus and the Jonas Bros because if he was a student of good music he would know you never hate on a city who brought the world great music like Cincinnati and King Records did.<br /><br />mcnichols9@gmail.com if you care to to discuss further.<br /><br />Oh and I learned this all at a fine CINCINNATI institution named Xavier University. <br /><br />This idiot needs to do some research, as you say.

Second, I'm not sure why there are so many bitter journalists in this country and why most of them seem to be based on the West coast, as if they moved there to become famous screenwriters and failed. Vanity Fair has gone downhill since they lost Dominick Dunne, the only reason I started reading it. Now its pages are filled with socialites, parties and frivolity, in fact I lost many brain cells while reading an article last night about a bunch of spoiled rich kids who were breaking into other spoiled rich kids' houses. Oh, and that Tiger cover? A lazy way to up sales? It was gross and he has a muffin top. Miss you Dominick, and goodbye Vanity Fair, your title suits you now.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7849311.post-34235538221077402702010-02-18T00:57:55.411-05:002010-02-18T00:57:55.411-05:00This is just fantastic.

I've read and heard so many slights towards Cincinnati and the Midwest in general coming from big-city media for so long that enough is enough!<br /><br />As a music writer covering the local scene, I've witnessed heavily hyped national acts come into town and get smoked by Cincinnati bands with regularity. It is a joy to behold.<br /><br />I've been saying for almost a year that 2010 is the year Cincinnati takes over. There's too much excitement, passion, fire, and talent around here to go ignored for much longer. This is the shot across the bow. Thanks for speaking up!<br /><br />Zach B.<br />Random Old Records BlogZach B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/17746386913466453866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7849311.post-59865161435521525552010-02-17T23:12:54.987-05:002010-02-17T23:12:54.987-05:00Get a life or take your own, A.A.Get a life or take your own, A.A.cinti jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07729673251057085033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7849311.post-33785342380997352262010-02-17T22:41:43.591-05:002010-02-17T22:41:43.591-05:00Sorry, I'm not from the area but as a Kansan I...Sorry, I'm not from the area but as a Kansan I can guarantee that Cincinnati has more to offer than the podunk town I'm from.
