Yo La Tengo - Yo La Tengo - LA BLOGOTHEQUE →
Last Saturday night, the HardTimes staff was treated to a blistering Yo La Tengo show in Hotlanta.  While we don’t have video from that show,  we’d like to link you all to La Blogotheque’s beautiful Yo La Tengo take away shows. Enjoy.

Here at HardTimes, we’ll be the first to admit that our panties have been knotted over rumors before.  We’re still licking our wounds over that Jackson death thing (the guys got a new movie coming out - he’s not dead).  Call us gullable.  Call us romantics.  But first and foremost, we’re fans of bratty 90’s rock. Pavement’s history has been dotted with pretty...

Good friend Glenn Lester writes for So Well Remembered. Read his thoughts on Pearl Jam, then search their archives - you won’t be disapointed.

The New Hard Times - The New York Times →
Obama’s plan to save the economy is incredibly touchy.  A few of HardTime’s conservative employees keep telling me things like “we can’t afford it,” or “he’s going to tack 9 trillion dollars in debt on!” In truth, I actually wish the package was larger. I think it’s a good step, but if it fails (which it very well could) it will be because we...

A Few Thoughts on Ken Kesey and Wallace Stegner:...
We at HardTimes have been thinking quite a bit about Ken Kesey.  Mostly because the HT editorial board, creative team, and moonshine distillers were all forced to read Sometimes a Great Notion.  Gathered around the bathtub - ladle in hand - we’ve all debated whether Kesey is just a lesser Beat, or something more substantial. In this humble writer’s opinion, Kesey is something far...
