  1. Billy Corgan's salon hopes to inspire conversation

    For an establishment called Madame ZuZu's, the host is pretty dressed down: no flowing silk robe or pointy painted fingernails. And even if Billy Corgan could qualify for madame-hood, he wouldn't be going for extravagance. At least not at 6 p.m. on a winterstruck Thursday, and not in a setting as casual as his new Highland Park tea shop.

  15. Fountains of Wayne Play StageOne in Fairfield on Nov. 15

    The last time I saw Fountains of Wayne was opening for the Smashing Pumpkins at the New Haven Coliseum in January of 1997. They were pretty great. Since then, the coliseum has been torn down and Billy Corgan has disbanded the Pumpkins and reformed them with a bunch of kids making up the rest of the band. But Fountains of Wayne have somehow become more cool. Instead of touring as a '90s nostalgia act as so many others from that era do, they have kept very busy writing great songs, landing sweet TV and movie placements and gaining the respect of music nerds everywhere. See them Thursday night at StageOne, a far more intimate venue than the New Haven Coliseum.

  21. Cheap Time's Half-Sugary, Half-Sour Garage Pop Arrives at Cafe Nine on Sept. 30

    <span style="font-size: medium;">In 1989, a four-ish-year-old Jeffrey Novak scored the <em>Ghostbusters II</em> soundtrack &mdash; his first record purchase. The album, which featured contributions from Bobby Brown, Run-D.M.C. and Elton John, did not change his life &mdash; at least not in the way music types mean when they say such a thing. It was no loss, really, as he had a long line of subsequent favorites to do the heavy lifting. In elementary school, the Henderson, Tenn.-raised Novak visited antique and thrift stores with his parents, procuring work from the Beatles, the Rolling Stones and the Doors. Around this period, he also enjoyed the fruits of mid-1990s (namely, Green Day's <em>Dookie</em> and the Smashing Pumpkins in their prime). In junior high, contemporary rock fell out of favor with him, but when he entered high school circa 2001 &mdash; right as the White Stripes and the Strokes pumped fresh blood into garage and indie rock &mdash; he was right back in the thick of things, now intent on firing up a band of his own. At the time, he also began absorbing punk acts like the Sex Pistols and Ramones, and proto-punk outfits such as the Velvet Underground and the Stooges. &ldquo;Once I heard proto-punk bands, I understood these weird bands that really didn't fit in their time. That still speaks to me,&rdquo; the fast-talking Novak, now 27, says. &ldquo;I'm always trying to find out about records that exist from the late '60s into the mid-to-late '70s. I think that's the most interesting era for music and the way records sound.&rdquo;</span>
