Steel Panther and James Durbin performed at Rams Head Live on Thursday night. Contributor Jay Trucker has this review: Comedy clubs are littered with guys who can strum the guitar and tell jokes concurrently, but the key to a great musical comedy act is the strength of their musicianship. As with Weird Al and Spinal Tap, Steel Panther demonstrate talent comparable and at times superior to the acts they parody.   The '80s glam-metal foursome formed in 2000 according to its bio (or in 1988 according to the “bio”)

We knew there was a decent chance the Ravens would be 1-1 as they headed into St. Louis to take on the Rams in Week 3, but I'm guessing that few of us thought that loss would come against the Titans. But that disappointing 26-13 letdown is in the rearview mirror -- at least it better be for the men in black and purple -- as the Ravens play the Rams on Sunday at another challenging road stadium. The 0-2 Rams are an inferior team in terms of talent. The Ravens can't afford to give away another win. Here are five significant storylines to follow from your sofas as the Ravens play the Rams on Sunday: 1. Who will Joe Flacco throw the ball to?

Chef Brent Shellem reflects: Being from Annapolis and growing up on the Chesapeake, rockfish is what we know. Just the thought of rockfish reminds me of fishing on the bay, and what better way to fish than with a cold beverage in your hand? I decided on Carolina Iced Tea because the Carolinas have great fishing as well, but mainly because my wife loves it and it pairs well with the citrus and the light nature of the fish.  Pokomoke rockfish Ingredients: •    8 ounces rockfish •    1 ounce extra-virgin olive oil •    Juice of 2 fresh oranges •    2 ounces vodka (3 if you're thirsty)

ST. LOUIS – The Ravens' 27-21 ugly preseason loss to the St. Louis Rams burst many bubbles and caused coach John Harbaugh to explode in anger. The score didn't reflect the most haphazard showing in the Harbaugh three-year era. The preseason finale at an empty Edward Jones Dome was filled with head-shaking blunders and disgraceful acts. There was Dannell Ellerbe taunting the Rams after the linebacker returned an interception for a touchdown. There was undrafted rookie Prince Miller dropping a punt inside his 10-yard line.

Live chat: Ravens vs. Rams

Time could be on the Ravens' side when they visit the St. Louis Rams on Sunday. Having dropped a 28-16 decision to the New York Giants on Monday night, the Rams have had one fewer day to prepare for the game than the Ravens. Quarterback Joe Flacco said a full week of practice, meetings and film study should benefit the Ravens. “It is nice to get them on a short week,” Flacco said. “Anytime you get a team on a short week, I think it definitely is a little bit of an advantage in the NFL, when you can get beat up week to week.

Every time I put out one of my mock drafts, readers tell me they think things would play out differently (chances are we'll both end up being wrong). Well, now you get a chance to play GM in my first-ever reader NFL mock draft. Here's how it works. I'll post a daily poll where you can vote to decide what the team that's on the clock should do with its pick. To keep it simple, I'll give you five options for each pick. If you think I missed somebody, let me know in the comments section.

Kevin Cowherd Ravens 31, Rams 7 Cam Cameron doesn't have to change his phone number this week as Ravens reassure their rattled fans with an offensive outburst. Edward Lee Ravens 20, Rams 16 The Ravens catch a break with the Rams coming off of a short week, losing their top running back and wide receiver to injuries, and fielding the worst rush defense in the league. Mike Preston Ravens 20, Rams 10 Ravens have to make up for last week's disaster.

ST. LOUIS - Although the Ravens' defense pulled the plug on "The Greatest Show on Turf," the team's offense became the main source of the St. Louis Rams' electricity last night. Four of the Ravens' seven turnovers led to 20 points as they bowed to the Rams in a wild 33-22 loss before 66,085 at Edward Jones Dome and a national television audience. The miscues ruined a dominating effort by the Ravens' defense, which held the Rams to a season-low 121 yards of total offense. At one point, the Ravens kept the NFL's top-ranked offense without a first down on seven straight series.

The Ravens' 2012 regular-season schedule won't be released until later this month, but the team's preseason slate is now set. They'll face the Detroit Lions and the Jacksonville Jaguars at M&T Bank Stadium, and play road preseason games against the Atlanta Falcons andSt. Louis Rams. The Ravens open preseason play at Atlanta on Thursday, Aug. 9, and conclude it on Thursday, Aug. 30 in St. Louis. Their preseason home opener against the Lions, which will serve as a homecoming for Detroit coach Jim Schwartz, who is a Mount St. Joseph alum, will take place on Friday, Aug. 17 at 8 p.m. The game will be televised nationally on FOX. Jacksonville will visit M&T Bank Stadium for the third preseason game on Thursday, Aug. 23. Only the Lions' game has a set time as of now because it will be nationally televised.

Yes, there was live music Sunday night besides BRUUUUCE . Contributor Jeremy Trucker reviews the Blue October show at Rams Head Live. Blue October's Sunday night show at Ram's Head live began with an acoustic set by the band's lead singer and songwriter Justin Furstenfeld.  Striking an Aaron Lewis-esque look in baggy jeans and a baseball cap, Furstenfeld strummed a few open chords and added an electronic drumbeat for portions of...

Bakari has always done a good job of getting as much as possible out of the Rams, and this winter he guided them to the Baltimore City title, a share of the Class 3A East region crown and a tie for fourth at the state meet. Digital Harbor won the city for the second time in five years and tied Hereford for first in a tough region. After finishing fourth in Class 2A last year, the Rams moved up to 3A but didn't miss a beat. Bakari is known for being one of the more vocal and motivational coaches, always standing right by the track and cheering on his athletes during races.

Reporter Matthew Hay Brown took a break from covering military affairs and national security to review the Psychedelic Furs' show at Rams Head on Stage Monday night. Is there anyone having more fun at a Psychedelic Furs show than frontman Richard Butler? His lyrical sophistication and that buzzsaw voice have always given the band's work a certain gravity, but Butler spent so much of their performance in Annapolis on Monday hopping, grinning, beaming that the main impression he conveyed was of a guy having the time of his life.

At this point, it seems pretty likely that the St. Louis Rams, who have former No. 1 pick Sam Bradford at quarterback, will trade the No. 2 overall pick in April's draft to a QB-needy team. A bunch of teams will likely show interest, jacking up the price for the pick and giving the Rams enough incentive to move out of that prime draft position. So which team can give St. Louis the biggest haul for the right to draft Robert Griffin III? The Cleveland Browns, who have gotten uneven play from Colt McCoy, have given mixed messages about their plans -- it shouldn't surprise anyone that they are playing coy -- but they appear to have the best package of draft picks to make a deal happen.

The Edgewood Rams (17-3 overall, 12-0 Chesapeake ) wrapped up their upper division schedule with a 63-47 road win over the C. Milton Wright Mustangs (10-9 overall, 7-5 Chesapeake) on Friday. Troy Anderson and Van Rolle led the Rams in scoring with 12 points apiece, while Detrick Matthews had 10 points in the victory. Mychal Stefanides had 17 points for CMW, and teammate Will Hazelton had 13 points. The Rams will take on Patterson Mill for the UCBAC championship Wednesday at Harford Tech.

Three things that NEED to go RIGHT … 1. Joe Flacco gets everyone involved. The Ravens desperately need to establish a downfield threat as wide receivers have caught just nine balls in two weeks. 2. The defense turns up the heat on Sam Bradford. The Giants got to the Rams' young quarterback early and often Monday, and the Ravens have the defensive firepower to do the same. 3. The Ravens own third down. The Rams are 28th in the NFL in third-down offense and 26th in third-down defense.
