One cool perk about being the guy who poorly runs The Lost Ogle is that whenever a new rap music video drops in the Lawton area, I’m usually the first person to hear about it. Yeah, most people...
If you were an Oklahoman and a music fan in the early 90s, there really wasn’t a better time to be semi-alive: alternative fans had the Nixons and the Flaming Lips, country fans had Garth Brooks...
The Oklahoman may be under new ownership, but the paper’s mission to use its editorial page to mislead and misinform its few remaining subscribers remains as strong as ever. With the...
Since I have so much relative free time on my hands, in-between the solemn recuperating, the constant blood tests and the extensive physical therapy, I’ve been doing a little bit of genealogy here...
From our blessed mother Reba McEntire to the body fluids-obsessed Wayne Coyne, Oklahoma has produced many great musical artists. And it sounds like we are about to give the world at least one more...
Summer’s wearing on, and even though school is starting across the metro, we’re in the middle of those boring days of summer. You know what I’m talking about. No basketball. College football...
“What can we do to just sort of help bring a little bit of goodness to the music business in Oklahoma? And, more importantly, why is there not a better music business in Oklahoma?” These were the...
The Oklahoma music scene has much more to offer than our blessed mother Reba McEntire and The Flaming Lips. Take this quiz to find out which local artist matches your personality! Who knows? You may...
For every band that makes it out of the Metro, there are ten times as many that never get past playing a few gigs at the Belle Isle Brewery and maybe self-releasing an album or two, no matter how...
“I want to go dancing tonight!” Ugh. There are few things more cringe-inducing than hearing the person you’re dating utter those six simple words on a Friday afternoon. Here it is, the end of a...
Welcome back! Before we get started with this “back to reality” recap, I’d like to give props to the OU football team for finding another way to get my new year started on a sour note...
One of the only bright spots for Oklahoma in 2017 was the reunion of everyone’s favorite local 1990’s grunge band to make it big – The Nixons. They’ll be playing their second...
(Editor’s Note: Due to Patrick’s current employment status with KFOR, we felt it would be better to have a different, and much nicer, TLO Contributor cover Linda Cavanaugh’s final...
The last time we checked on Moore rapper and self-made millionaire Barbie Doll, she was engulfed in a vicious suburban rap war with Midwest City rapper Phantom Classic and her daughter E-coli...
Even with all of the new live music venues opening up around the Metro en masse, few of them seem to understand those little things that make live music truly great, those tender mercies such as...
Over the past couple days, we’ve received several dispatches from Ogle Moles alerting us to an amazing new music video released by Moore rapper Alison Richardson. She goes by the very...
It was recently announced that likeable-enough 90s bubble-gummers Hanson are going to be inducted into the Oklahoma Music Hall of Fame. While many people who are only superficially aware of the HOF...
If there’s one good thing about being a writer, it’s that if you try really hard and believe in yourself, you very rarely have to pay for anything ever again. One such thing is concerts –...
Here I am again. Writing about the Nixons. Overwhelming feelings. Yes, one year after they reunited for a brief acoustic set at the Oklahoma Songwriters Festival, Oklahoma City grunge icons The...
In the late 90s, there weren’t too many places for all-ages shows. Sure, every now and then, there would be concerts at the Myriad (still a better name than Cox Convention Center), Will Rogers...
The biggest name to perform at any of President Trump’s inaugural festivities this weekend has been Moore, Oklahoma’s own Toby Keith. Yesterday afternoon, he calmly, soberly, took to the stage...
