I'M TAKING THE BLOG DAY OFF, but I didn't want to leave your post-holiday cupboard bare. Insofar as some of you might have some holiday cash or gift cards to deplete, you might consider my Faves of 2013. I worote there that there might be a couple of bands I overlooked and there are. So check out Jagwar Ma, which puts retro genres in modern clothes, as well as Adam Green and Binki Shapiro, who nicle update the Lee Greenwood and Nancy Sinatra dynamic. Also, some of you might be headed to the movies for the holiday season, so let me remind you I have recently mini-reviewed American Hustle, Anchorman 2, Inside Llewyn Davis, Saving Mr Banks, and The Hobbit 2: The Desolation of Smaug. Newly wide on Christmas are: The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, which is currently scoring 44 percent on the ol' Tomatometer; Grudge Match, which is scoring 31 percent; 47 Ronin, scoring 15 percent; The Wolf of Wall Street, debuting at 82 percent and Justin Bieber's Believe, which was not screened for non-Beliebers. See you Friday!
