The Crooks: I wasn’t previously familiar with this trio of young’ns who played some blistering blues-inspired rock Saturday at Jean’s Bar. Who knew?(2 of 2)Detroit Pony Express: Another great first-time catch for me was Detroit Pony Express which played alternative-indie rock with a likable punk flair Friday at the New Dodge.

Rock County should reject federal budget proposal
Janesville Gazette

As ranking member of the House Budget Committee I put forth complete alternative budgets that reduced deficits by controlling spending?not raising taxes. Last year I introduced legislation??A Roadmap for America?s Future??that reforms entitlement programs ensures universal access to affordable health coverage and simplifies and modernizes our tax code. To be clear where we can find common ground I welcome the opportunity to work with the president. I commend him for including some good proposals in this budget proposals that I have long advocated including agricultural subsidy reform and honest accounting for the Alternative Minimum Tax. But if reaching compromise means pursuing policies I believe will do more harm than good I simply can?t go along.
