Coming Up: The Bug, Yelle, Ben Kweller News | (0)
Here's a preview of some of the artists gigging in town this month. Check back with us for interviews and more info in the next few weeks! The Bug x Goodlife (10/4) If you're planning on doing ANYTHING other than going to Goodlife Saturday night to see The Bug and Warrior Queen, you are COMPLETELY WRONG. We cannot overstate this point -- this concert is going to be out of control. The Bug is pushing the boundaries of the fledgling UK Dub-step movement, and if you haven't heard the new London Zoo album, it is 12 tracks of thundering, nuclear destruction. The basement ...

The Goldenstash Giveaway Extravaganza! News | (0)
Hey, everybody!  Sorry for the delay -- we decided to start using Vimeo instead of YouTube to be artsy fartsy, but the the vimeo servers crashed out last night. We originally planned to pull a name out of a hat to pick the winner of the Black Kids ticket giveaway (we even had a sweet hat picked out), but we decided to try something a little more interesting. First, we assigned everybody who entered the contest a random number.  Then, we cruised around Allston to see how many pieces of street art we could find depicting our favorite 70's swinger, Chad Gildenstern ...

New Drops: August Part DEUX! News | (1)
Oh HELL YESSSS!!!! We couldn't wait another week...too many D-R-O-P-S! We've been watching Grand in Somerville with growing interest. The store sells a hand-curated offering of clothing, furniture and accessories. Grand launched their webstore last week and if you can't make it out to Somerville, you can still browse a huge selection of their products online. The store has also been taking part in some cool events, and recently held a movie showing as part of the Bicycle Film Festival. Local artist Chris Piascik will be showcasing a collection of his paintings at Grand for the next several weeks. Scheming Against Myself ...

The Election Collection x Chris Piascik»

After being rescued from the brink of extinction a decade ago, the Moleskine notebook has been reborn as the PBR of stationery goods. A marketing campaign from Italian publisher Modo & Modo cast the oilcloth journal as a requisite for travelers, writers, artists and otherwise impoverished people, and the company’s popularity has since mushroomed into [...]

Preview: Sondre Lerche x Paradise Rock Club (11/22)»

I am scheduled to interview Norwegian singer/songwriter Sondre Lerche at 12:10 p.m. on Wednesday. Lerche is in the middle of an east-coast tour, and as the hour arrives, I hunker down at my desk with a magazine, anticipating the usual problems (late phone call, crappy connection, tight time constraints). But just as I settle in, [...]

Breakfast With The MBTA - Volume I»

The yearly clusterfuck that is move-in day brought the city to its knees again this week, and like thousands of other Bostonians, we spent the afternoon cramming a U-Haul truck down one-way streets with the ease of childbirth.
