Hello All! Sorry for my brief hiatus from the blogosphere, but I'm back and have high hopes for a prosperous 2008 for Wolf Trap and all of you.
We have some great shows coming up in the next few weeks, several of which I will preview for you extensively. This Saturday, The Barns presents a Tribute to Nick Lowe, with performances from 27 total artists featuring a cross pollination of sounds designed to put a unique spin on Lowe's extensive catalogue of material. I will blog about this show more extensively tomorrow, as my specific intent for today's post is to test your knowledge about revolutionary moments in music history.
If one of your resolutions for the new year is to increase your breadth of musical knowledge, then start by taking this test brought to you by Live Nation.

It's a pretty intuitive design, with 50 questions posed side by side with screen shots taken from Google Earth. It's titled, "Moments that Revolutionized Music." I was able to get 36 correct, which I'm sure is extremely beatable. Chime in with a comment if you're able to get more than 45, I'd be interested to know.
Catch you tomorrow with the video of the week.

I see Gordon Lightfoot has been booked for the summer season. I know mr. lightfoot doesn't generally have an opening act these days but how about Tony Rice this one time?
