The Round Table

First Week Results
First Round: No. 1 vs. No. 8
First Round: No. 2 vs. No. 7
First Round: No. 3 vs. No. 6
First Round: No. 4 vs. No. 5


One week is in the books, and we are over half way to crowning the first-ever TRT March Music Madness Champion.

So far, the grassroots indie campaigns have represented well with three of the No. 8 seeds surviving to the Elite Eight, and all four No. 7s awaiting Monday’s action with hopes of doing the same.

Top-seeded Jay-Z was the only music giant to make it out of the first round, speaking volumes about the fan bases of Tony Lucca, Broken Social Scene and Matthew Mayfield.

Let’s just hope the site doesn’t crash on Tuesday. (more…)

Cursive, Alkaline Trio Preparing for Tour

Tuesday, January 12th, 2010

In case the official announcement nearly three weeks ago passed you by, consider this a late warning to mark your calendars and clear your schedules.

Fresh off a tour promoting its most recent release, Mama, I’m Swollen, Cursive is ready to hit the road again. This time the Omaha-based band will complete the I-80 connection, sharing the road with Chicago’s Alkaline Trio.

The 34-city, 36-show tour set to begin on Feb. 16 at Glass House in Pomona, Ca. is truly a coast-to-coast production, making its way across the country for two shows in Chicago (both at the Metro on Feb. 27 and 28), and stopping in New York (March 12 at Nokia Theatre) before winding around through the southern states with its finale in West Hollywood, Ca.

About The Round Table

We started as a three friends having conversations about music during lunches together at the office. Since then we have expanded to seven members, including a Chi-town native, and the conversations have gotten bigger and better. The Round Table has grown into a casual setting where music aficionados can gather to discuss all things music. Topics include (but not limited to) artists and bands, new music releases, concerts, recording industry news and concerns, and the occasional nugget of entertainment gossip. We have tastes that cover the entire music spectrum and love to share them (and our opinions) with each other. We are The Round Table! Come join the conversation!
