Ryan Adams Rant

Everyone keeps talking about how The […]

Ryan Adams Loses a Fan
From a White Stripes list: Saw Ryan Adams this weekend, a sold out show, big theater…show highlights included: excruciating 25-minute guitar jams that SUCKED, ryan swearing at and taunting the audience, strenuously arguing the point that he is NOT a poser and that he makes more money than any of us in the audience …lengthy […]

I Just Saw Todd Solondz
I saw Todd Solondz about 10 minutes ago while waiting outside for the fire drill to clear. How New York am I? Anyone want my free Mudvayne CD? I’m keeping the Ryan Adam’s video though. Sarwat had plus one to the ‘Frapp show… Sadly we are 1. too lazy and 2. too boring. It seems […]
“I’ve Been Emailing Julian Casablancas” and the Dark Side of Being “The Next Big Thing”
There is a thread on TheStrokes.org called “I’ve been emailing with Julian for Months now…” and it is simply THE FUNNIEST posting I’ve read this month.
