MUSCLES - Sweaty
A friend of mine mentioned to me yesterday that he had just watched “The Devil and Daniel Johnston” over the weekend. I personally haven’t seen the 2005 documentary, but it’s something that needs to be added to my Netflix queue after hearing him talk about it. One of the things that he took […]
Just wanted to give a quick mention about the free Car Stereo (Wars) show at the Knitting Factory tonight presented by Ninjaslice. CSW aka Christopher Rose hails from my old college town of Austin, Tx and has opened for the likes of Friction alums Ghostland Observatory. His album The Bandit is the first […]
Been digging the tracks Glass Candy have been posting on their MySpace page recently and this video is perfect for “Digital Versicolor.” This track and the others posted on their MySpace (that can be downloaded for free) will be on their BeatBox Tour CD, due out soon on Italians Do It Better.
I hate having […]
More hearing loss from No Age at Columbia University. I really can’t hear anything in my left ear and I was moving further and further away as the show went along.
Btw, I just found out Playboy has a blog.

I was finally able to make it up to the Highbridge Park Mountain Bike Trails this past weekend. In May of this year, the Parks Department teamed up with the NYC MTB Association and built the first-ever mountain bike trails in NYC, including a full dirt jump park.
The 6-miles of trails are […]

I was lucky enough to be in the LA area on Monday and make it out to the sold out PJ Harvey show at the Orpheum Theater. The circa 1920s landmark theater was the perfect setting for the one-woman-show. The stage looked like a room from an old […]
Thanks to er, Freddie Mercury, for posting this in the comments on Monday. Director Tristan Allen did a really fantastic job of capturing the mood of To Kill A Petty Bourgeoisie’s “The Man With The Shovel, Is The Man I’m Going To Marry.” Haunting and gripping, just like the song.
It reminds me a […]

Fucking shit. I was just informed that instead of seeing seminal Athens rock/new wave band Pylon at The Mercury Lounge on November 7th, I’ll be at a “conference” in Maryland. Woohoo! I was pretty excited to hear that the band was playing a few select dates […]
