OTHER INTERESTING THINGS

Rufus Wainwright reviewed.

BEAT ROYALTY CALLS IT THE “HIPSTER SLAVE TRADE.” BEAT ROYALTY IS RIGHT.
New article in the New York Times informs us that both Vice magazine and The Strokes are “cool” and “hip.” It’s hard to count on how many levels this particular article makes us want to grab a bucket and vomit up all […]

CONSUME, CONSUME, CONSUME!
Be just like us this holiday weekend; read, view, and listen to these things:
Books: The Sound and the Fury: A Rock’s Backpages Reader, Edited by Barney Hoskyns; Sex, Drugs, and Cocoa Puffs : A Low Culture Manifesto, By Chuck Klosterman
Magazines: SPIN with 2003 Band of the Year, Coldplay, on the […]

Well It’s True that We Love One Another

We really need to do a write-up of the White Stripes and Sondre Lerche show(s) we saw… but we’re very lazy.
But we do have the time to say that New York hates Whirlwind Heat. The only applause they garner from the NY audience is when they say “coming up next, The White Stripes” and […]

JUST WHEN YOU THOUGH “AVERAGE JOE” WAS CRAP…

It turns out to be the best show ever! Our most favorite new “hunky” player is Jason. Jason is the missing member of BB Mak. How creepy is that? Melana thought him so pretty she had to ask him, “Do you only like girls?” […]
