It was either that headline or “Don’t See IronMan Less High Than You Would Go To See Harold and Kumar.”

Comic book movies are clearly become more widespread. Every other day you hear about a new comic book movie coming out, and without exception, each is either an amazing display of the best [...]

In a risky, risky move, IMP promotions released their full line-up for the Virgin Mobile Festival MUCH later than any of the other summer festivals, on Monday, April 28th. They announced their, some would say, lukewarm headliners something like a month ago, and really it just felt…bleh. Jack Johnson and Kanye were playing [...]

For all of those who have never seen The Last Waltz, I will step upon my soapbox and preach.

(From left to right, Dr. John, Neil Diamond, Joni Mitchell, Neil Young, Rick Danko, Van Morrison, Bob Dylan, Robbie Robertson)
The Last Waltz was a concert performed by arguably the best set of popular musicians ever. [...]

Earth Day came and went with a yawn this year despite the growing vogue of “going green.” Hapless efforts to present earth-saving education and literature have been roused, including hyped efforts of nationwide free concerts, but to little avail. People will do as much as they can to save the earth as long [...]

Pitchfork Media launched Pitchfork.tv and the MTV comparisons are abound and plentiful. The media notorious for thrashing everything thrown on it’s plate with verbosity and grace has opted for a medium with some volume. It is the next in the evolutionary process. But where MTV’s birth was rooted in promoting the [...]

Del the Funky Homosapien graced the presence of the Nightclub 930 this evening in a performance that can be described as, “Was anyone else surprised that an actual PERSON came on stage instead of an animated ghost cyber-monkey?” The show was entertaining for the 300 or so people that managed to [...]

Long winded. That from a jam-band guy.
Plants and Animal’s album, “Parc Avenue,” their first full length-album following two EP’s, was released in 2007 off Secret City Records. Allmusic.com describes it as “genre-jumping,” I’d say it a stone cold stable, rock-light genre with variant speeds. And it would be good, REALLY good, if [...]

I did not want to go to The Apes CD release party.   I particularly did not want to stay after I heard opening act Kid Congo Powers.  But The Apes really did blow me away.  In due time, let’s start at the beginning.
Food for Animals was the first act, and came on stage about [...]

Turns out, as predicted, this guy is awesome.  (Yes, Bon Iver is a band, not just a moniker for Justin Vernon, but only in the same way Bright Eyes isn’t a moniker for Conor Oberst.)  What was troubling on this chilly, chilly evening was the amount of people that noticed the entire set was in the same [...]

I’m no oscar buff.  I like to think of myself as well versed in films, but that’s generally limited to a bunch of movies no one else really likes, those weird twisted ones that never even get close to nominated (how’d they pass up Sunshine for…. I don’t know, any category.  It was super awesome.)  I did [...]
