You already know how I became a Coyote. But the announcement of a brand new Lindsey Buckingham solo tour has me super excited, and thinking of all my past Lindsey adventures. I mentioned one of them on Facebook the other day, and thought I'd tell the story here. After all, it's the day that kinda …

It was all supposed to start 14 years ago today. In 2001, I swore off concerts completely after a chance meeting with one of my heroes caused a rift with friends and family. Not wanting to take the chance of hurting anyone again, I decided that I would never go to another show. I had …

I had a plan. When the Eagles' massive 2018 tour first got announced, I was brand new to my job. I hadn't had a full pay yet, and wasn't sure if I had calculated my taxes right. I didn't know if it would even be enough to cover the bills, let alone allow for a …

In almost exactly 36 hours, I plan to be on the road to Michigan. We have a 7 and a half hour drive ahead of us, to Mount Pleasant, which is somewhat of a pilgrimage for me. It's a sentimental stop on a journey to a concert in Detroit. So of course I've been sick …
