	<description>Scott Bradford has been building web sites and using them to say what he thinks since 1995, which tended to get him in trouble with power-tripping assistant principals at the time. He holds a bachelor’s degree in Public Administration from George Mason University, but has spent most of his career (so far) working on public- and private-sector web sites. He is not a member of any political party, and brands himself an ‘independent constitutional conservative.’ In addition to holding down a day job and blogging about challenging subjects like politics, religion, and technology, Scott is also a devout Catholic, gun-owner, bike rider, and music lover with a wife and two cats.</description>

		<description><![CDATA[Melissa and I had a great time last night at Elton John and Billy Joel&#8217;s &#8216;Face 2 Face&#8217; concert at Nationals Park in Washington, DC. As you would expect, the two guys put on a great show. I had seen Billy Joel before (twice, in fact), but this was my first time seeing Elton John. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been a big fan of Matchbox Twenty for years, and I responded to the news that front-man Rob Thomas was making a solo album with both anticipation and trepidation. I was thrilled with the musical direction that Thomas had taken Matchbox Twenty with their most recent album, More Than You Think You Are, but [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Great music is based on two fundamental things: The musicians&#8217; desire to emulate other great musicians, and their desire to do their own new, creative thing. It takes equal parts of each to make an excellent album. Jet&#8217;s debut, Get Born, is a great example of this seemingly contradictory fact. Many of Jet&#8217;s songs are [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Fleetwood Mac is a band with a strange back-story. Originally an English blues band, later an English rock band, and finally an intercontinental English/American pop hit machine, it&#8217;s almost impossible to keep track of who was in the band in what years—or who was dating who, for that matter. Bare Trees is not the Fleetwood [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Avril Lavigne stormed onto the music scene as the &#8220;anti-Britney&#8221; with her hit 2002 album, Let Go. Lavigne&#8217;s skater/punk rock persona was a welcome change in a bland pop scene, even though many of the songs on Let Go were co-written and produced by &#8220;The Matrix&#8221;—a hot production team that has worked for 98º, Ricky [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I rooted for Clay during the second season of American Idol, but I never counted on buying his album or—God forbid—liking it. Modern pop music is overwhelmingly crap, and I expected an overproduced, hyped, electronically enhanced, new-age &#8220;R&#38;B&#8221; influenced pop crap album like that put out by first-season Idol winner Kelly Clarkson or like Britney [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Bee Gees were one of the more popular soft rock/pop bands of the late sixties, but their popularity had all-but-disintegrated in the early seventies—only to be rekindled by their later disco work. Today, the brotherly trio is remembered most for their contributions to the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack. The older Bee Gees songs were [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Those who know me well know that my two favorite bands are the unlikely combination of Pink Floyd and the Bee Gees. Now surely, neither of these bands are well understood by the majority of my friends—as they are far too preoccupied with whatever pre-fabricated beats and hot-bodies they hear and see on MTV to [...]]]></description>
