I Am In A Better Place: Why You SHOULD Sign To A... →
My friend Neil, saying what someone should have told me back in 1998 and again in 2001 when I was just a young dude trying to make it in a band and someone handed over the golden checkbook - which I promptly, and stupidly refused.

Because it doesn’t matter. And soon it will matter even less. And because outside of your friends, family and (if you’re lucky) your small music...

There's Got To Be A Better Way!
Sky Mall is full of some of the most useless, overpriced novelty products I have ever seen. So, suppose it snowed, like it just did here in New York City. It snowed A LOT. Why break out that old fashioned, dangerous, outdated regular shovel. Why not drop $120.00, plus tax and delivery, on this shovel WITH A WHEEL!! I mean, if you’re going to buy a “wovel” (I can’t believe...
5 Awesome Pictures
3-D Bacon
We are obsessed with recreating reality. Everything must be recreated. Every moment must be recreated. Even things that aren’t reality must be made to look as real as possible.
The first 3-D movie I remember seeing was Creature From The Black Lagoon. You went to 7-11, bought a Slurpee and they gave you a set of paper 3-D glasses with the blue and red cellophane lenses. I remember going...
Congratulations, I hate you. Now what?
Yeah, I haven’t used this thing a whole lot. I’ve been busy in my IRL adventures, jet-setting to such exotic locales as Bristol, England and Hercules, California. Exhilarating, I know.
Today I’m going to set my sights on a fairly new phenomenon. It involves usually terrible bands trolling the internet, in particular Twitter, looking for negative reviews of themselves and...

Freegans
Freegans Well this is about as stupid as humans get. If you don’t know what a freegan is visit freegan.info and prepare to have your mind blown by people who can’t just come out and say what they really mean…. don’t understand? Let me break it down for you. Here are some of the selling points of freeganism and what they really mean… Waste Reclamation -...

Give Me Something To Break. Seriously.
Give me something to break. Seriously.
by Keith Buckley of Every Time I Die
I was considering waiting a little longer to report in with an update, but the truth is I don’t need more than two weeks to get a grasp on my surroundings and provide a thorough account of what will most likely be the protocol for the weeks we have still left to travel. This is not my first rodeo, nor do I abide by...

AILEEN 365: I have a question →
jessicacohn:
When I was growing up, the people I looked up to were singers, musicians, and bands. I read all of their interviews and bought all of their CDs (even the CD singles with 7 different crappy club remixes). I never expected anything in return, just more music.
These days, why do fans feel like they’re owed something more than just music by their favorite bands/artists?

Was there ever a "Breakin' 3"?
Look everyone… street dancing is BACK!
And now a word to Gabe from a fat kid
“Diaz , listen, I know you think I’m a dick but I really only play one on TV. I will never forget that you took me on my first tour - and it means a lot to me to still be on tour with you 10 years later even though I’m a fucking train wreck. I still like to consider you my boy - and no one sings “Hey Ya” like you -Much Love.” - Gabe Saporta 2009 from the inside...
60618 to 11206
For the past 7 years I have lived in the city of Chicago and have been proud to call the Midwest my home. I’m not from here, but when I decided to move out of New York and find “something different” my first choice was Chicago. In 7 years I watched the neighborhood I have called home grow from a sketchy place you don’t really want to walk around in at night to a place where...

Egg Log
From http://www.wtfjapanseriously.com/2010/02/egg-log.html :
“You have got to love the efficiency of Japan. Practicality above all else, even if that means you have to cut your egg slices out of a horrendous molded egg tube.”
Must try!

Brian's (Terrible) Movie Reviews : Time Machine...
Time Machine Car is a movie I had the pleasure of watching recently and boy is it thrilling! The basic plot centers around Megan J. Fox (Family Matters, Light of Day) and Christopher Lloyd (Taxis), and their quest to get Danny Glover (Lethal Weapon 2, Gone Fishing) laid and subsequently stop a terrorist attack involving lightning and plutonium.
In order to achieve their goals they drive a...

“I DON’T LIKE THE BEATLES”
Liking stuff that everyone else likes is definitely not great. Blind enjoyment of everything the media throws at you is for normies — it’s how X Factor is allowed to exist and the reason there are 210 episodes of Everybody Loves Raymond. So it’s cool that you’re into weird stuff instead of just being a drone like everyone else. Culture’s important; it sets us apart...

Yo Momma Is Concerned
fuckingbookdeal:
Dear Jeffrey,
I’m sorry to bother you with this message when I know you are at work, but as you know, now that we are Facebook “Friends,” I can see what sorts of things your pals write on your “wall” and I think someone is very misinformed.
First of all: I am not so fat that I have a wooden leg with a kickstand. Yes, I have put on a little bit of weight since I went through...
