There is a feature in the Minneapolis Star Tribune called "Pick six: A half-dozen cool things in music." The segment is one of my favorite short articles to read on Sunday mornings. It gives you a quick preview of what's hot in music right now and it's from an editorial point of view, which makes it more interesting that just your run of the mill "what's happening" story.
This week, the pick sixers of Susan Sandberg and Jon Bream talked about:
1: Carrie Underwood
2. TicketKingOnline.com
3. Target TV ads
4. Paolo Nutini
5. Pink
6. Dixie Chicks
A wide array of topics for such a short article. Sandberg commented on what a surprise it was to see Carrie Underwood beef up her sweet girl image and rock out with a little Guns 'n Roses tune at Mystic Lake on New Years Eve. Sandberg also mentions the Target TV advertising campaign and how fresh it is to see it infused with great music and she comments on a local ticket broker, Ticket King, as the best place to find tickets to a concert. I have to agree with Sandberg on all accounts! Carrie Underwood is definitely becoming a super star musical talent and I watch the Ticket King web site www.ticketkingonline.com like a hawk because they really do have the best concert and sporting event tickets for the Twin Cities!
