Greetings and salutations. Jared Kraminitz here, arts intern extraordinaire reporting to you live via the internets! Before we get to the nitty-gritty, a little about me: I’m a Cornell student studying labor relations and, among other things, I enjoy ice cream, cookies, and Elvis Costello. When I’m not slaving away here at […]

Hey all, I’m Kate, one of the Ithaca Times Arts summer interns. I was born and raised in New York City, and am going on my Junior year as a Government major at Cornell. Some of my favorite things include: rainbow sprinkles, big dogs, co-ops, black coffee, dancing, pottery and good music.
Speaking of which… […]

I’m happy to announce that I’ve added NEPTUNE to the MOUTHUS and SKATERS bill for a concert here in Ithaca at No Radio Records on Sunday, June 29. We’ve teamed up with the good folks over at Syracuse’s New Thing Productions and added Table of the Elements trio Neptune to our (already killer) lineup. Here’s […]

Bobby Comstock is one of those amazing guys that tells story after story, each one more ridiculous than the last. As a session and studio guitarist, he’s either performed or hung out with just about every major 60s and 70s rock ‘n’ roll / rhythm & blues act that you can think of: Jimi Hendrix, […]

Olivia here. Sorry it has been awhile, but I promise to start writing more soon. In the meantime, check out the new band The Sub-Atomic at The Haunt this Thursday, May 9th at 9 p.m. Lead by Ithaca sophomore Harry Nichols, the band sounds like a mix of the Arctic Monkeys and the White Stripes. […]

A message from the Fanclub Collective:
Dear Fanclub members/supporters,
We will be having an IMPORTANT meeting this Tuesday in the Green Dragon at 4:30pm. If you are interested in being an officer or want to rock the vote, you should attend. We will also discuss the upcoming semester, which bands people may be interested in bringing, and […]

For those of you who were at Castaways last night, you saw the five-man storm that is the Felice Brothers. Regardless of what you thought about their performance (I personally thought: too long, and not loud enough, by a long shot), they’re 100% committed to what they do. In case you missed the show — […]

Hey Ithaca peeps,

Friday night, I will be hosting and performing at the semester’s last “Cat and Mouth,” at Risley Hall, in Tammany Night Club. The show is free, starts at 9pm, and milkshakes will be served.  This week’s guest is Sparlha Swa, an amazing soul/acoustic singer/songwriter from NYC.

Hope to see you!
Adam

This afternoon, the Tompkins County SPCA Adoption Center will hold a foster care fair from 1-5pm. From what I’ve heard, the animals up for temporary care are teeny tiny KITTEHS who need intensive care in their first 1-6 months of existence. Because spring is breeding season, apparently there are a lot of teeny tiny […]

Okay, today is officially food-related news day, but this is a sad announcement indeed. Juna’s — second home of the Ithaca Times, and our number one choice for a hot cup of joe during the winter and a scoop of Purity during the summer — is calling it quits. There really aren’t too many other […]

To continue today’s food-themed posts, here’s another French music-inspired night at Pangea, one of our favorite local restaurants. Speaking from personal experience, these nights are fabulous, the food is amazing, and Franck Vidal is the best singer! Get a reservation while you can . . .
CAN YOU CAN-CAN?

Remember this article from December’s Ithaca Times? Well, it’s taken me exactly three months to get my act together (to the day! no less) and re-post it online, here. Like a fine wine, it’s aged well over time, I would say. I’ve also uploaded a complete photo gallery over at our flickr — see it […]

Joan Tower — hailed by The New Yorker magazine as “one of the most successful woman composers of all time” — will be visiting Ithaca College as part of the Enduring Masters series tomorrow, on Tuesday, Feb. 5. Featuring performances by various Ithaca College ensembles, “The Chamber Music of Joan Tower” will start at 8:15pm […]

Yikes! Sorry to have been away from here for so long. This past month really flew by, but we are so excited for 2008 and everything it has to offer. We feel wide-eyed and bushytailed, and we have so many ideas, plans and goals for this year. We’ll start posting much more regularly now, but […]
