L.A. Weekly just cut the column of Alan Rich, an insightful and valuable (if sometimes cantankerous) observer of Los Angeles' music scene.

Huge loss -- for the Weekly. Even when he writes something with which I completely disagree, it's still written wonderfully. Glad to see that he's soon putting up a blog: "So I've Heard" (www.soiveheard.com). It seems that it's still under construction right now, but I'll put it on heavy rotation once it's up.
